Some Chrysler Town & Country owners report experiencing issues with the remote start feature, where the engine shuts off within 5-10 seconds and the check engine light is illuminated. These problems may arise if the remote start system detects an engine fault or low fuel level, leading to an automatic shutdown shortly after starting. Additionally, improper engine coolant and oil pressure levels can cause the remote start system to disable itself if the coolant is too high or the oil pressure is too low. Furthermore, malfunctions in the ignition system might prevent the engine from starting correctly, triggering the Check Engine Light. Some owners also find that issues with tachometer signals can lead to premature shutdowns of the remote start. To address these concerns, it is advisable to check coolant and oil pressure levels, replace any faulty filters, inspect the ignition system, and verify that tachometer signals are functioning properly.
