1994 Dodge Caravan Problems & Complaints

MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON BECAUSE THE REAR WIPER SHORTED OUT AND BLEW THE FUSE, AND THE AIR BAGS ARE ON THE SAME FUSE.

DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE VEHICLE JUST QUIT. WAS ABLE TO COAST TO SIDE OF ROAD. ATTEMPT TO RESTART FAILED.4 TIMES. LET VEHICLE SIT FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND NORMAL RESTART. THIS IS THIRD TIME IN THREE WEEKS. OTHER TWO NO STARTS WERE AFTER VEHICLE SITTING OVERNIGHT. NO ERROR CODES OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. FIRST NO START REPLACED AIR FILTER. SECOND NO START REPLACED BATTERY. INFO PROVIDED BECAUSE OF 2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN ISSUE AN POTENTIAL FOR IT TO EXIST IN EARLY VEHICLES. I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS THE IGNITION SWITCH. *TR

AS I SLOWLY WAS TURNING THE CAR TO PARK IN A PARKING LOT IN VIENNA VA SHOPPING CENTER, THE VAN SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AND STOPPED WHEN IT CRASHED INTO HANDICAP PARKING POLE MARKER ( NO DAMAGE). DAMAGE TO MY VAN WHICH IS VISABLE APPEARS TO BE THE FRONT OF THE HOOD OF THE CAR AND A DAMAGED BUT FUNCTIONING RADIATOR AS BEST I CAN SEE. NOTE: THE AIR BAGS WERE NOT ACTIVEATED, AND WONDERED WHY THEY DIDN'T.( IS THIS ANOTHER PROBLEM ?) *TR

1994 DODGE CARAVAN GAS TANK LEAK. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE WAS SEARCHING FOR INFORMATION REGARDING A GAS LEAK AND CAME ACROSS RECALL 99V216000 AND WAS WONDERING IF IT APPLIED TO HER VEHICLE? AND IF SO, WILL DODGE HONOR THE RECALL AND FIX HER VEHICLE?

WENT TO WORK ON APRIL 1, 2009 HAD BRAKES, WHEN I WENT TO GO HOME THE BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, AND ANTI BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON, CHANGED FRONT BRAKES , DID NOT NEED IT , BUT DID IT ANYWAY, WAS GOING TO CHANGE THE BACK BUT THEY DID NOT NEED IT, BLED THE BRAKES, ALL WORKED FINE , THEN WENT OKLAHOMA APRIL 11TH , STAYED IN MOTEL AND BRAKES WHERE FINE, GOT UP NEXT MORNING AND WENT TO DO SOME THINGS AND AGAIN THE BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND ABS LIGHT COMES ON ,STILL HAS PLENTY OF FLUID. *TR

HAVE GEN 3 SEATBELT, UNSAFE, COULD UNLATCH IN A CAR ACCIDENT. CAN ALSO BE PUSHED INTO A FALSE HOLE CAUSING A FALSE LATCH. *TR

I TRIED TO OPEN THE HOOD OF MY MINIVAN AND THE RELEASE BROKE OFF. THE RELEASE WAS ON THE INSIDE OF THE 1994 DODGE MINIVAN AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSED IT TO BREAK OFF. I'VE CHECKED THE SAFETY DEFECT NOTIFICATIONS FOR "1994 DODGE MINIVANS" AND COULD NOT FIND ANY OTHER MENTIONS OF FAILURE OF THE HAND RELEASE FOR THE VEHICLES' HOODS. *TR

REAR WINDOW ON LIFT GATE SHATTERED IN A THOUSAND PIECES FOR NO REASON WHILE PARKED (GLASS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE). OUTSIDE TEMP WAS ABOUT 20 F AND CLOUDY. GLASS TYPE IS A PRIVACY TINTED WITH WINDOW DEFROSTER. IT APPEARS GLASS WAS NOT REQUIRED TO BE A SAFETY GLASS TYPE AS COMPARED TO A WINDSHIELD WITH A "PLASTIC SANDWICH IN-BETWEEN. ABOUT 10 HOURS OF CLEAN UP REQUIRED. MANY SMALL GLASS FRAGMENTS AND "GLASS DUST" TRAVELED AS FAR AS THE FRONT DASHBOARD. OWNER WILL BE REPLACING GLASS. COST ESTIMATED TO BE BETWEEN $300 TO $400 PARTS AND LABOR. I HAVE PICTURES AVAILABLE IF NEEDED .*CN

SERPENTINE BELT COMES OFF...DRY, WET, SNOW..BIG, LITTLE ...LITERALLY NO PUDDLES...AND THE GATORBACK BELT DOESN'T FIX IT, NOR THE SNOW SHIELD ON THE PULLEY SHIELD.....WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS AND THE NUMEROUS TIMES MY BELT HAS COME OFF..YOU'D THINK CHRYSLER WOULD HAVE FIXED THIS LONG AGO...NO JUST SOAK PEOPLE FOR MONEY..IF THEY R NOT MECHANICALLY INCLINED( WHICH THANKS TO MY FATHER, BROTHER, AND HUSBAND) I AM.....AND I KNOW ABOUT THE INTERNET SITE FORUMS THAT HELP EACH OTHER OUT...IN TIMES LIKE THESE. SOME UNFORTUNATELY..SEVERAL HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS LATER...HOW UNFAIR OF CHRYSLER...AND WE'RE TALKING.... THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN AROUND AWHILE...YOU'D HAVE THOUGHT THEY WOULD'VE FIXED IT LONG AGO ..EVEN BEFORE PUTTING OUT NEW ONES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM....I BET THOSE NEW BUYERS ARE FIT TO BE TIED RIGHT ABOUT NOW!!!! HOPEFULLY ALL THESE COMPLAINTS AND I HOPE YOU PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING...GETS SOMETHING DONE!! *NM

1994 DODGE CARAVAN MILEAGE 66.873 WITH WHEELCHAIR LIFT REAR LIFTGATE HINGE, BOLT HOLDING THE HINGE TOGETHER BROKE DUE TO METAL FATIGUE, LETTING HINGE SEPARATE, CAUSING LIFTGATE TO DROP DOWN. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM. CHRYSLER/DODGE 1-800-992,1997 REF.#15261363 WAS CONTACTED BY PHONE SEVERAL TIMES. I WAS TOLD THAT II WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. SORRY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE VAN IS ALWAYS PARKED IN MY CARRAGE. LIKE NEW. I HAVE THE OLD PARTS AND 17 COLOR POCTURES. *JB

LACKS POWER, WANTS TO STALL LIKE IT'S NOT GETTING ANY FUEL, HAVE REPLACED NUMEROUS PARTS INCLUDING WHAT WAS LISTED ON THE DIAGNOSTIC SCANS, CLUNKING NOISE UNDER VAN. NOTHING SEEMS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. HAVE SPENT OVER $600 IN PARTS ALONE, NOT COUNTING LABOR. *NM

DT: CONSUMER STATES HIS 1994 DODGE CARAVAN THAT HE PURCHASED USED ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS IMMEDIATELY. THE TRANSMISSION WILL POP OUT OF GEAR WHEN IT IS HOT. THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE SHUT OFF AND THEN IT WILL START AGAIN. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, SEPTEMBER 2004, HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT 30 DAYS AGO AND HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY. *JB

WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT, ANOTHER VEHICLE REAR ENDED THE CONSUMER. THE CONSUMER PROCEEDED TO STRIKE THE VEHICLE IN THE FRONT OF HIM. BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER SEATS COLLAPSED. THE DRIVER SEAT FELL ONTO THE CHILD PASSENGER, BREAKING SEVERAL BONES IN HIS FACE AND HAD TO UNDERGO SURGERY. *JB

NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN 99V213000, THE BOLT TO THE HATCH BROKE, CAUSING THE PISTON TO BREAK IN HALF. A STICK MUST BE USED TO HOLD THE HATCH UP. CONSUMER WAS AWARE OF RECALL FOR THIS PARTICULAR MODEL. *AK

THE SERPENTINE BELT CONTINUOUSLY SLIPS OFF WHICH CAUSES THE STEERING TO BECOME INOPERABLE. THE POWER STEERING COMPLETELY FAILS. *AK

THE PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR FELL OFF THE HINGES. IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO OPEN/CLOSE DOOR. DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *AK

HAVE A 1994 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. ALREADY REPLACED ONE TRANSMISSION AND I AM LOOKING AT REPLACING ANOTHER. TOLD BY TRANSMISSION MECHANICS AND OTHERS THE TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE VEHICLES ARE NOTORIOUS FOR FAILURE AND THAT THE COMPANY KNOWINGLY INSTALL SUCH EQUIPMENT AT THE CONSUMER'S ULTIMATE EXPENSE. *JB

I HAVE NOT ACTUALLY TRIED TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED BECAUSE I HEARD THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE THERE MIGHT BE A RECALL FOR THIS PARTICULAR DEFECT, AND I AM SIMPLY TRYING TO FIND OUT IF THAT IS TRUE. MY PROBLEM IS WE HAVE A LIGHT BLUE DODGE CARAVAN AND THE PAINT IS PEELING BADLY!!!! I HAVE SEEN OTHER LIGHT BLUE DODGE CARAVANS THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL THAT ARE ALSO PEELING BADLY. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET IT REPAIRED?

THE PAINT IS PEELING OFF THE ROOF OF THE VAN (THE ROOF IS NOW ALMOST BARE, A YEAR LATER) AND NOW HAS BEGUN TO PEEL OFF THE HOOD, AS WELL. WE CONTACTED OUR LOCAL DODGE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THIS IS NOT COVERED BY ANY SORT OF WARRANTY OR LEMON LAW AND THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO REPAINT THE VAN. OTHER THAN THE PAINT PROBLEM... THE VAN IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT SOON IT WILL NO LONGER HAVE ANY PAINT. IT IS A DARK BLUE COLOR, AND WE HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER DODGE GRAND CARAVANS FROM THAT SAME YEAR WITH EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM. OTHERS HAVE SOLD THEIR VANS RATHER THAN PAY TO REPAINT AN AGING, HIGH-MILEAGE VEHICLE.

PLASTIC HEADLIGHTS ARE FOGGING OVER MAKING NIGHT DRIVINGA CHORE. SO FAR I;VE HAD TO ADD ACCESORY LIGHTING AND BRIGHTER BULBS IN HOPE OF JUST STAYING EVEN.*AK

TRANSMISSION FELT LIKE IT WENT INTO NEUTRAL WHILE ON OUR WAY HOME, AT NIGHT, THEN IT JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ON A CORNER. WE PUSHED IT SOMEWHAT OFF THE ROAD AND TURNED ON THE HAZARDS. THEN I PROCEEDED TO HAUL MY FIVE KIDS OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND DOWN THE ROAD TO TRY TO PHONE FOR HELP. WALKING AT NIGHT WITH 5 YOUNG CHILDREN ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD IS DANGEROUS. I TRIED TO GET IT REPAIRED AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT IT WOULD TAKE APPROXIMATELY $3,000.00 TO FIX AND THEN IT COULD TURN AROUND AND HAPPEN AGAIN. NO INDICATOR LIGHT EVER CAME ON. THE DEALER TOLD ME THESE WERE GOOD VANS AND VERY DEPENDABLE TOO. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BY BEING HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEFORE SOMEONE DOES SOMETHING? THESE TRANSMISSIONS SHOULD BE DECLARED LEMONS, RECALLED AND MADE GOOD ON. *LA

REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AND TURNED ON. WILL BE TAKING VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE CAUSE OF WINDOW PROBLEM.*AK

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A REPAIR SHOP WHERE THE MECHANIC FOUND THAT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION EXPLODED INTERNALLY, AND HAD TO BE REBUILT. *AK

WHILE DRIVING, THE SEAT BROKE. VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL CRACKING WHERE THE CAB MOUNTS TO THE FRAME ON BOTH SIDES. *NLM *CB *JB

TRANSMISSION FAILURE ON OUR 1994 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WITHOUT ANY WARNING - THE VAN IS JUST UNDER 9 YEARS OLD AND HAD 86292 MILES. IT HAS BEEN REGULARLY SERVICED AND IS MAINTAINED IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IT IS USED TO COMMUTE TO WORK AND AS A FAMILY CAR WITHOUT ANY TOWING OR HEAVY LOADS. REGULAR TRANSMISSION SERVICE AND CHECKUP HAS BEEN PERFORMED WITH LAST ONE BEFORE THE FAILURE AT 72456 MILES. NO PROBLEMS WERE FOUND AT THIS SERVICE, OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE TAKEN APPROPRIATE ACTION. THE FAILURE HAPPENED IN AN OFFICE UNDERGROUND PARKING LOT AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN MY WIFE TRIED TO PARK IT. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY OR ON A BUSY STREET AND COULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS TO HER SAFETY AND TO OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD. I RESEARCHED INTO THE ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND A LOT OF CHRYSLER/DODGE CARAVAN OWNERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS OVER THE YEARS. I EVEN TALKED TO FRIENDS AND PEOPLE I KNOW WHO ARE CARAVAN OWNERS AND SEVERAL TOLD ME IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE TRANSMISSIONS BUT CHRYSLER HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. FAILURES EVEN HAPPEN AT LOWER MILEAGE THAN MY VAN AND TO OLDER MODELS. REPLACED TRANSMISSIONS ARE ALSO KNOWN TO FAIL WITH LOW MILEAGE IN SEVERAL CASES THAT I CAME ACROSS. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER ON THIS MATTER AND THE RIDICULOUS COST OF $2500 THAT I HAD TO PAY TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION WITH A REMANUFACTURED ONE. THE DEALER THAT CHECKED THE PROBLEM ON MY VAN FOUND THAT THERE WERE 4 PROBLEMS FOUND INCLUDING WORN OUT CLUTCHES AND HE HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR THE FAILURE. CHRYSLER INFORMED ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM AT THIS TIME BUT THEY MAY HAVE ONE LATER ON. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT CHRYSLER/DODGE IS WELL AWARE OF THIS DEFECT PROBLEM AND THAT IT IS ALSO A SAFETY HAZARD. CHRYSLER SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND REPLACE THE TRANSMISSIONS WITH A BETTER DESIGNED ONE FOR THE SAKE OF SAFETY TO THEIR CUSTOMERS AND OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD.

TRANSMISSION HAD SOME MAJOR REPAIRS DONE AT 90,000 MILES. CURRENTLY, TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING OUT OF GEAR WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH. *AK

THE GLASS IN THE BACK SHIELD OF THE DODGE CARAVAN THAT I OWN JUST BROKE AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET TO WORK ON FRIDAY MORNING JANUARY 3, 2003 THE DATE BELOW WON'T GO TO 2003

THE CAR PERIODICALLY STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING (USUALLY WHEN TURNING OR STOPPED AT INTERSECTIONS), REQUIRING THROTTLE BODY CLEANING ABOUT EVERY 15,000 MILES. IT IS DANGEROUS TO STALL OUT WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION AND/OR TURNING AND SHOULD NOT (AS DODGE ASSERTS) BE COMPARED TO ROUTINE MAINTENACE LIKE OIL CHANGES. DT

DOOR WAS STICKING AND HARD TO CLOSE. MY WIFE TRIED TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND IT STUCK. SHE PULLED ON THE DOOR AND IT FELL OFF THE HINGES. BODY SHOP SAID ALL THE PARTS WERE COMPLETELY WORN OUT. DT

WHILE DRIVING MY CARAVAN THE DRIVERS SEAT BACK, FELL BACK. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN ABUSED. WE ARE NOT TOO HEAVY. IF I HAD BEEN ON A WINDING MOUNTAIN ROAD OR IN THE PROCESS OF STOPPING MY VEHICLE, IT COULD HAVE CAUSE A DEADLY ACCIDENT, AS IT WAS, IT WAS A VERY STARTLING EXPERIENCE. I AM THANKFUL THAT I WAS GOING AT A REASONABLY SLOW SPEED. I CAN NOT SEE ANY EXCUSE FOR A CAR SEAT TO BREAK, LIKE THIS ONE HAS. IF THE DRIVERS SEAT BROKE OUT OF THE CLEAR BLUE SKY, I AM LEFT TO WONDER ABOUT BEING IN A ACCIDENT WITH THIS CAR. WHAT IN THE WORLD WOULD COME APART IN THE SEAT CONSTRUCTION TO CAUSE THIS PROBLEM? IT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. THE SEATS ARE NOT ELECTRIC. THERE IS A SIDE ARM TO ADJUST THE SEAT. A FRONT ARM TO MOVE THE SEAT BACK AND FRONTWARD. I ALWAYS (UNTIL NOW) DRIVE W/THE SEAT IN THE MOST UPRIGHT POSITION. THANK YOU. DT

MY WIFE TRIED TO HAVE TWO NEW TIRES INSTALLED ON THE FRONT AXLE OF HER VAN AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS A NEW DOT REGULATION PROHIBITING FRONT-MOUNTING OF TWO TIRES. THIS MAKES NO SENSE IN A VEHICLE THAT IS FRONT-HEAVY, OF WHICH THERE ARE A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER ON THE ROAD. THE INSTALLER MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT UNDERSTEER AND CONTROLLABILITY AND THE FORD/FIRESTONE FLAP (HE WASN'T TOO SURE). IF THAT IS THE REASON IT SOUNDS TO ME AS IF BAD SCIENCE AND MEDIA HYPE ARE DICTATING POLICY. I SUSPECT THAT EXCESSIVE SPEED, OVERLOADING, AND NEGLECTED MAINTAINENCE CAUSED A MAJORITY OF THE FORD/FIRESTONE FAILURES. ANYWAY, IWOULD LIKE INFORMATION ON THIS NEW REGULATION: WHAT IT IS, WHAT INSPIRED IT, WHY IT WAS DEVELOPED, AND WHO IMPLEMENTED IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR RESPONSE. REGARDS, JOCK SELFRIDGE. *AK

THE METAL FATIGUE OF THIS PART IS SUSPECT SINCE WE HAVE HAD NO ACCIDENTS OR COLLISIONS. FAILURE OF THIS PART PREVENTS THE SEATBELT FROM WORKING PROPERLY AND COULD ACTUALLY CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT IF THIS FAILURE HAD OCCURRED DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS PART REPAIRED SINCE FEBRUARY OF 2001. WE WERE TOLD THAT THIS PART NUMBER HAD CHANGED 17 TIMES AND WAS ON BACK ORDER. FINALLY, AFTER HAVING TO RETURN TO THE DEALER TO RE-REPAIR THE AIRCONDITIONER, WE CALLED THE CHRYSERLER MANUFACTURER TO SEE HOW WE COULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THEY INFORMED US THAT THE PART HAD NEVER BEEN ORDERED. NOW THE COST OF THE PART HAS INCREASED FROM $25.00 TO $143.00. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND WE HAVE FOUND NO RECOURSE FOR A SOLUTION. PLEASE ADVISE US OF STEPS THAT NEED TO BE TAKEN TO BRING THIS PROBLEM TO THE ATTENTION OF OTHER DODGE CARAVAN OWNERS. *AK

WHEN PURCHASING VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY OF 2001 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAD JUST BEEN REBUILT. TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE ON FEB 10TH, AND WHILE TRAVELING ON AN INCLINE AT APPROXMIMATELY 45 MPH ON MAY 28TH. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/ATTACHMENTS. *AK

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE IN TRAFFIC, I RAN OVER A METAL OBJECT WITH THE LEFT FRONT TIRE AND SUBSEQUENTLY HEARD A THUD UNDER THE VEHICLE, BUT EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE OK. I DROVE ANOTHER 20 MILES @ 60 TO 70 MPH WITH NO INDICATION OF PROBLEMS, UNTIL I APPLIED MY BRAKES TO GET OF AT MY HOME EXIT. AT THAT TIME THE CHECK BRAKES FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH ESSENTIALLY NO STOPPING ACTION. I FINALLY STOPPED THE VEHICLE WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. UPON INSPECTION, I FOUND THAT THE OBJECT THAT I HAD RUN OVER (A RELATIVELY SMALL METAL OBJECT)HAD HIT THE EXPOSED BRAKE LINES WHERE THEY CONNECT TO A PROPORTIONING VALVE ASSEMBLY ABOUT HALF WAY BETWEEN THE LEFT FRONT AND LEFT REAR WHEELS. ALTHOUGH THERE WAS A SMALL METAL AND RUBBER GARD TO PROTECT THE BRAKE LINES, THEY WERE INSUFFICIENT AND THE METAL OBJECT BENT THE GARD AND BROKE BOTH BRAKE LINES THAT CAME FROM THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER TO FEED THE REAR BRAKES. ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE HAS A DUAL MASTER CYLINDER, SINCE ONE CYLINDER FEEDS THE BACK RIGHT BRAKE AND THE OTHER FEEDS THE BACK LEFT BRAKE (WHILE ALSO FEEDING THE OPPOSITE FRONT BRAKE), THE FAILURE OF THE GARD TO PROTECT THE LINES RESULTED IN TOTAL BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE. FORTUNATELY, I WAS NOT IN A CRITICAL STOPPING SITUATION, OR A SERIOUS ACCIDENT COULD HAVE OCCURRED. MY FEELING IS THAT THE PLACEMENT OF THESE EXPOSED BRAKE LINES DRIECTLY IN LINE BEHIND THE FRONT WHEEL WITH RELATIVELY LITTLE PROTECTION, RESULTING IN COMMON MODE FAILURE OF THE ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM IS AN UNSAFE SITUATION, AND BETTER PROTECTION SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. WITH AS MANY OF THESE SINILAR VEHICLES ON THE ROAD, I WOULD BE INTERESTED IN KNOWING HOW MANY SUCH INCIDENTS HAVE BEEN REPORTED. I ALMOST LET THIS GO BY WITHOUT REPORTING IT, SO I AM SURE THAT IT MUST TO HAVE HAPPENED MANY MORE TIME THAN THE NUMBER OF REPORTS THAT YOU MAY HAVE RECEIVED. THANKS, NORRIS CRAWFORD. *AK

AIR BAG LIGHT ON DASHBOARD HAS COME ON AND STAYED ON. CONSUMER HAS HAD A FUSE REPLACED A COUPLE TIMES IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX THIS DEFECT. *AK THE AIR BAG LIGHT PROBLEM WAS CONNECTED TO THE REAR WINDOW WIPER, BECAUSE THE FUSE BURNS OUT WHENEVER THE WIPER IS TURNED ON. THE RECALL SERVIE ON THIS PROBLEM DID NOT CORRECT IT. *YH

THE LATCH ASSEMBLY AT THE REAR OF THE DOOR IS JAMMED SO THAT THE DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE. I HAVE MANAGED TO GET IT BACK INTO THE RIGHT POSITION ON TWO OTHER OCCASSIONS BY PRYING IT INTO PLACE (NO, I DID NOT BEND IT OR ALTER IT IN ANY WAY). THIS TIME, HOWEVER, IT SIMPLY WON'T CLOSE. THE "LOOP" IS UP. THIS IS PARTICULARLY TROUBLESOME AS THE PROBLEM OCCURED WHEN I WAS SHOPPING. I HAD TO TAKE MY WIFE AND TWO CHILDREN HOME WITH THE DOOR BEING HELD SHUT BY A SEAT BELT. I DON'T BELIEVE A DOOR LATCH OF THIS AGE SHOULD FAIL. IT IS FULLY LUBRICATED.*AK

PASSENGER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR FAILED TO LATCH PROPERLY. HINGES KEPT BREAKING. DOOR WOULD FLY OPEN WHEN GOING AROUND A CORNER OR CURB. CONTACTED MANUFACTURER, AND INFORMED CONSUMER OF NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, NOT A DEFECT. HAD BEEN REPAIRED 15 TIMES, AND WOULD ONLY LAST ABOUT 3 MONTHS. TOOK BACK TO DEALERSHIP, AND MECHANIC REPLACED OLD DESIGN WITH A NEW DESIGN.*AK

CONSUMER IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSION. TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT/CHANGE GEARS AFTER APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/ATTACHMENTS.*AK

IT STALLS SUDDENLY FROM TIME TO TIME - "CHECK GAUGES" LIGHT IS ON AT THIS POINT - SOMETIMES ONCE A WEEK, SOMETIMES ONCE A MONTH, SOMETIMES TWICE A WEEK, SOMETIMES ... YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN!. I CAN RESTART IT EASY, BUT IT DOES NOT HOLD ON IDLE, AND STALLS IMMEDIATELY. IF I STEP AT THIS MOMENT AT GAS PEDAL, AND WHILE KEEPING RPM AROUND 1000, SHIFT INTO DRIVE, IT RUNS OK AS IT NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS....ONLY UNTIL NEXT TIME... I TURN OFF ALL ELECTRIC DEVICES: RADIO, FAN, LIGHTS WHILE RESTARTING IT. THAT SEEMS LIKE NOT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCES.

I WAS LEAVING CHURCH ON 6-11-00 AND HAD 5 OTHER PASSANGERS IN THE CAR. THE LAST PASSANGER INTO THE CAR WAS HAVING DIFFICULTY CLOSING THE SLIDING DOOR SO I GOT OUT TO DO IT. THE DOOR WAS INDEED DIFFICULT TO CLOSE AND AS I MANAGED TO GET THE DOOR ALMOST CLOSED, IT FELL OFF OF THE TRACKING AND LANDED ON MY FEET. MY FEET WERE HURT AS WELL AS BAD SCRAPING TO MY ARM AS I TRIED TO CATCH THE DOOR WHEN IT STARTED TO FALL. I WAS IN TOTAL SHOCK AT HAVING A DOOR FALL OFF. WE COULDN'T GET THE DOOR BACK ON AND HAD TO DRIVE WITH THE DOOR OFF. I HAD TWO CHILDREN AND TWO ELDERLY PASSANGERS IN THE VAN BESIDES MYSELF AND MY FRIEND. I HAD NO OTHER WAY OF GETTING THE VEHICLE HOME SO HAD TO DRIVE IT THIS WAY. WHEN WE GOT HOME WE MANAGED TO GET THE DOOR BACK ONTO THE TRACK BUT COULD NOT OPEN THE DOOR AGAIN AS IT WAS INOPERABLE. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL ON THIS BUT THEY WOULD LOOK INTO HELPING ME GET THIS REPAIRED OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY AS THEY SAID THAT THEY DO THIS FROM TIME TO TIME. WHEN I BROUGHT THE CAR TO PAPA'S DODGE WHERE I BOUGHT THE VAN I WAS TOLD THAT THEY CALLED CHRYSLER CREDIT AND WERE TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PART AND THE REPAIR AT THE COST OF AROUND 300.00. A SERVICE TECHNICIAN TOLD MY FRIEND PRIVATELY THAT THEY HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS HAPPENING WITH THIS MODEL VAN. I HAD BEEN TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THIS PROBLEM HAD NEVER OCCURRED BEFORE. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM. DOORS DON'T JUST FALL OFF OF CARS! I WAS TOLD THAT THE ROLLERS HAD ERODED. THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER UNUSUAL WEAR. ONE CAN'T TELL ME THAT EVERYBODY WHO OWNS A DODGE CARAVAN WILL HAVE THEIR DOOR FALL OFF AFTER 6 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. I DON'T AGREE THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS. THIS IS NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, THIS IS ABNORMAL. MY CHILDREN NOW HAVE TO CRAWL THROUGH THE FRONT OF THE CAR TO GET TO THEIR SEATS.

THE VAN'S ENGINE WILL INTERMITENTLY CUT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN TOWN. IN MOST CASES THERE IS NO WAY TO WARN DRIVERS APPROACHING FROM THE REAR THAT YOU HAVE NO POWER OR ARE STOPPED IN THE ROAD. (WHEN THE ENGINE CUTS OUT THERE IS NO WARNING OR NOISE. THE ONLY WAY THE DRIVER KNOWS THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING IS THAT THE POWER STEERING IS GONE OR THE VAN DOES NOT RESPOND WHEN THE DRIVER STEPS ON THE GAS PEDAL.) RESTARTING THE ENGINE MAY TAKE 4 TO 6 TRIES BEFORE YOU CAN PLACE THE VAN BACK IN DRIVE AND CONTINUE. EVEN IF THE DRIVER WERE TO STEP ON THE BRAKES OR TURN ON THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS, OTHER CARS AND MACK TRUCKS APPROACHING FROM THE REAR HAVE A TENDENCY TO RUSH UP ON THE REAR BUMBER BEFORE THEY REALIZE WHAT IS HAPPENING. THIS IS, OBVIOUSLY, VERY UN-NERVING ESPECIALLY TO THE DRIVER WHO IS TRYING TO RESTART THE VAN BEFORE SOMEONE RUNS INTO HIM. I KNOW OF AT LEAST 6 OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS STALLING PROBLEM IN EITHER A DODGE VAN OR CAR THAT HAS THE 3.0L ENGINE. MOST HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM AT THEIR DODGE DEALER AND HAVE SOLD THE UN-REPAIRED VAN OR CAR RATHER THAN ARGUE WITH THE DELERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE STALLING PROBLEM IN MY VAN HAPPENED ONCE EVERY FEW MONTHS WHEN IT WAS NEW AND IT DID NOT REALLY SEEM TO BE A SAFETY PROBLEM.

FOUR SPEED OD TRANSMISSIONS IN THE CHRYSLER VANS SEEM TO BE FAILING AT A HIGH RATE AT ABOUT 100K MILES. WHEN I INQUIRED TO SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS ABOUT GETTING MY TRANSMISSION FIXED, THEY ALL TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM I AM EXPERIENCING IS COMMON IN THE CHRYSLER VANS. EVERY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT IS A COMBINATION OF MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND POOR QUALITY PARTS USED IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE TRANSMISSIONS. ONE SHOP IN PARTICULAR HAS BEEN REPLACING THESE TRANSMISSIONS ON THE MAGNITUDE OF 70-80 PER YEAR. ADDITIONALLY, I HAPPEN TO HAVE 6 NEIGHBORS WHO OWN OR HAVE OWNED '92-'95 CHRYSLER VANS WITH THE OD TRANSMISSION AND HAVE NEEDED REPLACEMENT ASSEMBLIES ANYWHERE FROM 60K TO 100K (MY NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR HAD HERS REPLACED 3 TIMES, SHE FINALLY TRADED IT IN FOR A NISSAN VAN). ONE MECHANIC, AFTER PERFORMING $1000 WORTH OF WORK REPLACING THE AXLES, TIE ROD ENDS, BRAKES, ROTORS, STRUTS (COMPLETE), TIRES, AND ALIGNMENT, TOLD ME TO "DUMP" THE VAN BECAUSE NOT ONLY DO THEY HAVE TRANSMISSION FAILURES, BUT THEY HAVE VALVE GUIDE FAILURES WITH THE 3.0L ENGINE STARTING AROUND 100K MILES. HE TOLD ME $3000 TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION AND ANOTHER $2000 WHEN THE VALVE GUIDE (PLASTIC) FAILURE OCCURS. I MIGHT ADD THAT I'VE DONE ALL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AHEAD OF MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDED INTERVALS. I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN ABOUT FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS AND PERHAPS LONGER AND BASED ON CONVERSATIONS WITH SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS, CHRYSLER HAS DONE NOTHING TO MAKE THE DESIGN FLAW RIGHT.. I DID NOT BUY MY $20,000 VEHICLE TO HAVE IT FAIL AT 95K MILES. THNAKS FOR YOUR HELP. REGARDS, TED CUNEO

TWO ABS PROBLEMS: 1) THE SYSTEM ACTIVATES INTERMITTENTLY AND PREMATURELY WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS COMING TO A STOP OR MERELY SLOWING IN TRAFFIC AND AT ALL SPEEDS - EVEN BELOW 15MPH. WHEN THE SYSTEM ACTIVATES, THERE IS SUDDEN PEDAL FADE ACCOMPANIED MOST OFTEN BY A GRINDING NOISE AND A NOTICEABLE SUDDEN SURGE FORWARD AS BRAKING IS REESTABLISHED. THE AFOREMENTIONED DEALERSHIP HAS THROWN NEARLY $800 WORTH OF PARTS AT THE PROBLEM OVER THE PAST TWO WEEKS INCLUDING REPLACING A 'DEFECTIVE' RR WHEEL SENSOR AND THE ABS MOTOR SYSTEM AND RECOMMENDED MORE THAN $600 ADDITIONAL EXPENSES SUCH AS REPLACING THE TWO REAR DRUMS, HAVING NEW BRAKES INSTALLED AND BUYING NEW TIRES. (I HAD THE REAR BRAKES AND DRUMS CHECKED BY ANOTHER MECHANIC WHO ASSURES ME THAT ALL ARE WELL WITHING SPECIFICATIONS. I DID BUY 4 NEW TIRES.)THE PROBLEM IS WORSE AFTER THE REPAIRS THAN IT WAS PREVIOUSLY. THE DEALER SAYS THAT CHRYSLER SAYS THAT IT IS NORMAL FOR THE ABS TO 'KICK-IN' ON ROUGH PAVEMENT. THE FACT THAT IT ALSO ENGAGES ON SMOOTH SURFACES AT SPEEDS UNDER 15 MPH DOESN'T SEEM TO REGISTER. 2) THE ABS LITE COMES ON AND THE SYSTEM DISENGAGES INTERMITTENTLY UNDER ALL ROAD CONDITIONS. TWO NIGHTS AGO, ON RELATIVELY SMOOTH PAVEMENT, IT DISENGAGED SEVEN TIMES IN A FIVE MILE STRETCH AT SPEEDS OF 35MPH OR LESS.

THIS IS THE SECOND TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THIS VEHICAL. BOTH HAVE OCCURED AT ABOUT 70,000 MILES. THIS IS A FAMOUS PROBLEM NOW WITH THESE VEHICALS. COUNTLESS MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THAT THESE TRANSMISSIONS "GO" AT ABOUT 70,000 MILES. THE WEB HAS PAGES DEDICATED TO THE FACT THAT THESE TRANSMISSIONS FAIL. THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD MAKE A CONCENTRATED EFFORT TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE BEFORE THERE ARE MORE ACCIDENTS THAT PUT OUR TAXPAYING LIVES AT RISK. YOU SHOULD LOOK UP PAGES ON THE INTERNET THAT WILL DEMONSTRATE A CONSISTANT PATTERN OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT OR NEAR 70,000 MILES. ALSO AN INVESTIGATION SHOULD LOOK AT THE RACK AND PINION STEERING PROBLEMS FOR WHICH THERE IS AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SET OF WEB PAGES DEDICATED TO THESE PROBLEMS. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THESE ENGINEERING PROBLEMS ARE COSTING OWNERS OF THESE CARS ENOURMOOS AMOUNTS OF MONEY AND SEVERELY JEOPRODIZING PEOPLES' SAFTEY!! THERE MUST BE SOME RECOURSE FOR THE SHODDY ENGINEERING OF CHRYSLER/DODGE!! DON'T STOP AT JUST THE AIRBAG PROBLEMS!! THE LARGE AMOUNT OF FAMLIES WHO OWN CHRYSLER/DODGE MINI-VANS AND THE SERIOUS SAFTEY PROBLEMS- IMAGINE THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPING INTO 2ND AT FIFTY ON AN ICY MN ROAD, OR THE STEERING COMING LOOSE PASSING AT 60MPH - THAT THESE CARS EXHIBIT AT REGULAR INTERVALS SHOULD BE ENOUGH REASON TO START AN INVESTIGATION.

I HAVE HAD 4 TRANSMISSIONS REPLACED BY A RI DEALERSHIP, BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP IN MASSACHUSETTS WHERE THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. THE LATEST TRANSMISSION WAS PUT IN ON JUNE 11TH 1999. THE TRANSMISSION PREVIOUS TO THAT WAS PUT IN IN APRIL 1999. AT THE TIME THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED IN APRIL, I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALERSHIP AFTER HOURS AND WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE I IMMEDIATELY KNEW THAT A BAD TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED BY ANTOTHER BAD TRANSMISSION! I HAVE MADE NUMEROUS CALLS TO THE 800 TELEPHONE # IN MY OWNERS MANUAL AND HAVE HAD MANY DIFFERANT COMPLAINT CASE NUMBERS ASSIGNED. I HAVE SENT AN E-MAIL MESSAGE TO THE DISTRICT MANAGER FOR THIS AREA FOR CHRYSLER AND HAVE MADE MORE THAN 2 DOZEN REQUESTS AND DEMANDS THAT SHE CONTACT ME REGARDING THIS LEMON THAT I SPENT $17,000. ON! I HAVE NOT HAD ANY LUCK. THE FUSE FOR MY AIR BAGS WHICH ALSO CONTROLS THE REAR WINDSHIELD WIPER HAS BLOWN FOR THE SECOND TIME AND I NOW HAVE NO AIRBAGS! I HAVE NOT HAD A WORKING FLOAT IN MY GAS TANK SINCE I HIT THE 12,000 MILE MARK, NOW I HAVE NO AIR CONDITIONING. I HAVE NOT USED IT ALL THAT MUCH AND HAVE HAD IT RECHARGED AND IT STILL DOES NOT WORK. THIS CAR HAS BEEN A LEMON SINCE I PURCHASED IT. I KEEP ASKING THE PEOPLE AT CHRYSLER AND HAVE BEEN ASKING SINCE 1995, WHO I MAY TALK TO OR WRITE TO FOR SOME SATISFACTION, BUT THEY WON'T COOPERATE. N I DO NOT KNOW WHO TO TALK TO. I AM VERY NERVOUS DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, WHEN THE THIRD TRANSMISSION BLEW WE WERE ON OUR WAY HOME ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, WE LOST POWER AND OUR SPEED DROPPED TO AROUND 20 MILES PER HOUR, WE WERE LUCKY TO MAKE IT TO SAFETY! MY SON WAS VERY SCARED. PLEASE HELP, THANK YOU.
