Mine were just replaced on both sides due to leaking.. according to the service advisor, they are "notorious" for leaking.

Harness part # that I installed was P68080977AC. It DOES NOT list as being compatible with the 2015 w/led tail lights, but it DOES work and terminates in the flat 4 pole trailer plug. The proper part number for the 2015 w/led tail lights is: P68080976AC which, "I think", terminates with the flat plug as well.

$1.19/litre here in the Banana Belt. And, just about 20 minutes from me in Taylor,MI it's $2.30/gal.

I just had mine in for the warranty recall and another item and I had them do what they call a "peace of mind" inspection. I did this because mine is about 6 months away from the end of the 3 year bumper to bumper and wanted to know if there was anything that needed repair under the warranty. They found a few things, which they repaired. And, speaking of generating more money, they are still pushing the "brake service" where they remove the calipers, clean and lube the slides and then put everything back together... I've always found this amusing.

Yes, they've taken good care of me. We've purchased 2 vehicles from them... one used and one new, and the new one wasn't the DJ. I bought the DJ at another dealer and after their service department p'd me off I told them to kiss it as I left the last time and I will never go back there. The suspension parts were the upper rubber strut bushings. I didn't notice anything, but they said they were "noisy". It's all good.

Not sure if this is the correct place for this or not, but didn't seem to be anywhere else for it so here we go. Mods can move it if it's in the wrong spot. Recently, I had my blower motor replaced... that's covered in another section. While I had it at the dealer, the tech discovered a couple other items that surprised me so thought I would mention them so everyone could check theirs. The windshield washer nozzles needed to be replaced. Apparently, they are notorious for leaking under hood where the tubes connect. And, the washer pump was leaking, so it was replaced.This makes no sense, but it is what it is. I could see if I put water in it, and it froze but I kept winter washer fluid in all year so who knows. And, the last thing that really DID cause me a bit of concern was the rubber bushings (grommets? strut bearings?) that had to be replaced. I wasn't able to determine which.. will look at the service order again. I've only got 43,000KM on it, about 25k miles approx. and suspension parts are starting to wear? I thought that was a bit premature.

Annnnd... now we can add a '16 Dodge Grand Caravan Crew Plus to the list... SWMBO got tired of single handedly raising the stock price of the big oil companies and wanted to get rid of the Nitro.

My '15 w/V6 runs along just fine at the speed limit. I have had it up to 80mph occasionally, but that was just moving with traffic at the time. The days of "let's see what this sucker will do" are long gone for me as well...

Heck of a price! I have a set of those rubber mats else I'd be all over these.

OK, to follow up on this. The tech diagnosed the blower fan as having an internal short in it and replaced it. Hopefully that will be it.

I had something similar happen to mine when it was only a few months old. Not sure about the reverse as I never tried it, but it would not shift out of low gear. Several starts, and restarts, and it started acting normally again. The end result was a bad sensor in the transmission. 43,000km and the problem hasn't returned.

So, it wasn't working yesterday... then it was working.. then it wasn't. SMH!! I was hoping someone had experienced something similar as this is an intermitent problem and if it "ain't broke, they can't fix it" when I bring it in. Oh well, will see what they have to say about it next week.

Interior blower quit. Been an intermittent problem for a week or so now, last nite it appeared to quit for good. Haven't checked it this morning yet. Got an appointment for next week but just curious if anyone else has experienced this?

I paid $64 at the stealership for my last oil/filter. I just used the dino oil off the rack, think they use Penzoil.

I'm curious, did the dealership install the factory harness for the trailer lights? If they put the factory harness on, they would have had to turn the harness on in the computer to power it. I installed the factory harness on my '15(it connects to a white plug located near the spare tire) and, while I have not noticed any issues like you are mentioning, my fuel economy went right in the toilet. The dealer claims that nothing they did for turning the power on for the harness would have changed this, but ???

I've seen it done on motorcycles quite often. Initial application of the brakes causes numerous flashes, 3 I think, of the brake light, and then a constant display of the brake light.

Here in the Great White North, I could only get my '15 DJ with the 7 seat configuration. 7 seat configuration was the only way FCA sold the DJ here in Canada. What a joke! Not room for anyone to sit in the rearmost seats when they are set up.

Well, I guess that takes care of that. We use Samsung Notes at work, and they get plugged and unplugged so often the plug gets all loose.

Are you using the same cable that you used in the past? Some phone cables are better than others.. and if they are one of the cheaper ones. the contacts can get sloppy.

I have a wiring harness, NON LED, for sale. Not sure what year, it came with a hitch I purchased. Manufacture date says 2010 so take it from there. Brand new, never installed. $50.00 + shipping. Either from Detroit,MI or Windsor,ON if you're North of the border.

This was the plastic piece I was referring to. At first glance, it looks just like a regular plug.

Harness #P68080977AC I'm trying to confirm what year it is for... I know it's not for the '15 model year, but it does work.

Was just re-reading this... did you, or the dealer, remove the dummy plug on the end of the harness on the DJ? Not sure why it's there, maybe to protect the end of the actual plug from corrosion, but there is a small piece of plastic, almost looks like part of the plug (Yes, I missed it the first time) that must be removed and then the harness plugs into it and then terminates at the trailer plug. Just a thought..

OK, no pics... will have to check on the harness itself tomorrow. I do know it was for a '14 DJ. Mine is a '15, and altho it was a different part number than was called for mine, it was for one with LED tail/brake lites so thought I would give it a try. Just a note here... I just realized in my first post on this I stated that I installed it on my " '17 w/LED lites"... my bad, it was actually on my '15 DJ, but I DID have the LED part right.

Mine was the flat 4 pin connector... like you, I have NO use for the 7-way connector. Not pulling anything heavier than my utility trailer, 1,000lb limit. I will try and find the harness number... think I tossed the paper that came with it but I'm sure I have pics somewhere.
