Summary

While driving at various speeds, my vehicle consistently produces a clicking noise from the upper right-rear C-pillar area. The noise is most noticeable when the vehicle body twists slightly during normal driving, such as when traveling over uneven pavement, entering driveways, or making turns. The condition has persisted and is repeatable. The vehicle was inspected over approximately six weeks by an authorized dealership. After extensive diagnosis, the dealership identified a suspected welding defect in the upper right-rear C-pillar/body structure. The suspected defective area is available for inspection. The dealership requested authorization from the manufacturer to repair the condition under warranty, but the request was denied. To my knowledge, neither the manufacturer nor the dealership has provided any engineering analysis or technical evidence identifying an alternative root cause for the suspected welding defect. The C-pillar is a structural component of the vehicle that contributes to body rigidity and occupant protection. If the clicking noise is caused by a defective or failed body weld, the condition could indicate reduced structural integrity or progressive deterioration over time. Although no crash or injury has occurred, I am concerned that continued operation with a suspected structural weld defect could compromise vehicle safety or crashworthiness. No warning lights or diagnostic messages were displayed before or during the occurrence of this condition. The primary symptom has been the repeatable clicking noise from the upper right-rear C-pillar area during normal driving. I am requesting that this condition be investigated to determine whether it represents a manufacturing defect that could affect other vehicles of the same model.

Summary

Our van is experiencing Auto Idle Stop failure to restart. We experienced it one time last month (June 2026) and then again 2 days ago. I also experienced it 2 summers ago in 2024. We noticed it seems to happen in the heat and when we have been driving a while. In 2024 and then June 2026, I was able to quickly turn off and restart the car. Two days ago, we were stuck at a busy intersection with the car unable to start but also unable to turn off the car nor switch gears. After 5 min with multiple security alerts flashing it seems as though the computer timed out and we were able to start the car. We drove another 300 miles this weekend on a road trip with no further issues but we were sure to manually turn off auto stop each time. We are concerned about the safety implications of being stopped at traffic stop due to auto stop.

Summary

Steering Rack and Pinion failure due to corroded electrical connection plug. This occurred in april, 2025, when the van had less than 15,000 miles on it. Took the van to Blue Ridge ChryslereBay logo DodgeeBay logo dealership in Abingdon Va .for Warranty repair. Plug was taken off another vehicle to put on mine aaaand dielectric grease added to hopefully keep the replacement plug from corroding too. Location of plug makes it susceptible to water infiltration, a definite design flaw that is likely to cause trouble again in the future.

Summary

Immediately upon making a low-speed contact of my back bumper with a pole, the engine revved loudly. I attempted to go from reverse to drive to get some clearance from the pole. I then immediately attempted to put the car in park so I could get out and observe any damage. Immediately, the car accelerated extremely suddenly and quickly. I went over a curb where I had parked prior to backing up and contacting the pole. I hit a landscaping decorative boulder and a young tree. It was clear that my car was headed into the two-way street straight ahead since it was clear my breaking efforts were useless. I believe the car went airborne for a second, landed and continued straight, thankfully not hitting any vehicle or pedestrian. I saw a parked black full-size pickup truck and figured we would hit it, we did. I thought if the truck didn't stop us then we would continue into the building just beyond it. We landed on a memorial boulder next to the truck with the front end on the boulder and the rear of the car low to the ground. It was very difficult to exit the driver's door because the truck was angled so that my door wouldn't open much. It was difficult to get the door handle to actually open the door. I kept trying the lock in case it was engaged. I squeezed out praying loudly for God to help us, over and over again as I squeezed out. I thought the engine was on fire - I thought I saw smoke but later realized it was the powder from the airbags. I was trying to get to the other side of the vehicle to help my friend out. I had a hard time walking due to scraped up legs. A lady came up to me to help. I asked if my friend was ok. I asked if anyone was hit. She said he was out of the vehicle and no one was hit. I held onto her because I was very weak and shaking. I thought my chest pain was due to a heart attack. But when she coached me on my breathing I realized the pain at my sternum was from the seatbelt. I yelled, "I tried to stop, I couldn't stop, the brakes didn't work!
