Recall 11V-394: Equipment, Air Bags

Reported Aug 3, 2011 · 298,949 vehicles affected · CHRYSLER GROUP LLC

Problem: Chrysler is recalling certain model year 2008 chrysler grand voyager, town and country and dodge grand caravan vehicles manufactured from june 24, 2007, through july 30, 2008. These vehicles may experience a heating and air conditioner (Hvac) condensate leak from the HVAC drain grommet onto the occupant restraint control (Orc) module, which can lead to the illumination of the airbag warning light and a potential inadvertent airbag deployment without warning.

Risk: An inadvertent airbag deployment could result in injury to the seat occupant in front of the deploying airbag and/or a vehicle crash.

Fix: Dealers will replace the affected air bag module free of charge. The safety recall began on october 14, 2011. Owners may contact chrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

Vehicle Speed Control · at 15,000 miles · reported Jan 27, 2010
The contact has a 2008 chrsyler grand caravan (N/a). The contact stated that the vehicle has had speed control issues. There had been times when he stepped on the brakes and the pedal would go down to the floor and the car would continue to accelerate. This happened on two occasions. The failure mileage was 15000 the current mileage was 22000. The VIN # was not available.
Structure · at 500 miles · reported Jun 2, 2008
The hood latch failed to hold when we hit a deer that ran onto i95. Front airbags deployed; the windshield broke as did the radiator. No one was hurt but when the hood latch failed to hold, the hood flew up towards the front windshield, totally obscured vision. This made it very dangerous to get out of the travel lane and into the breakdown lane. Fortunately, we were in the right lane and there was minimal traffic early on a saturday morning but we feel this car would be much safer if the latch held in this accident.

I AM from ohio. I was on a family vacation with my family of 5 in south carolina. I went to get in my 2008 chrysler town and country on a wednesday morning.

They advised to call chrysler corporate. Chrysler corporate gave me names of local dealers near me in south carolina. I drove…
Air Bags · at 1,500 miles · reported Feb 25, 2008
I bought a 2008 chrysler town and country minivan. I was doing 55 MPH on a road with no shoulder and hit a mailbox. The right corner was destroyed. There was an airbag sensor behind the right light. Even though the lamp and sensor was destroyed, my seatbelt did not lock up or airbag did not deploy. The body shop took it to a local dealership and was told that there was over 500 request for this part. He told the north point body shop that usually means it is defective. This part is not available enough late spring.
