2011 Caravan - Remote start and wind noise issue
Just thought I'd throw this out there to see if anyone else is having trouble...
My new van is in the shop for the second time, and now it's been over 3 weeks while they are trying to rid it of a whistling (wind noise) on the drivers side near the top rear corner. Also having trouble with the remote start working when it wants to, and also shuting off the car 1 second after it starts it periodically. Dealer replaced the remote start box but basically told me I was not starting it properly. Anyhow, they replaced all the seals on the door and are still hearing the noise and no longer have any idea on what to do. They said they are in contact with Chrysler and will see what they say...meantime it's been almost 4 weeks now and the van only has 4,000 miles on it.
Has anyone else had any issues with their 2011?

If I get the van back and I have to figure it out on my own then I will definitely try that. So far the dealer has had it the entire time, going on 4 weeks this coming Monday. They are trying to contact corp. now to see if there are any known issues but the head tech. acknowleges that there is an issue and so far they have been unable to resolve it...

I had a Minivan with Windnoise from the door once. replaced door seal, no fix.
I fixed it by slightly Bending the Door/window frame inward slightly, so the door close tighter.
Or they can try to puff up the weather strip with some foam tapes behind it.
