COST $2400. TRANSMISSION SHOP KEEPS THEM ON THE SHELF, SINCE FAILURE IS SO COMMON!!! ONE TECHNICIAN THINKS HE'S DONE 13 OF THEM. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, I FEEL LIKE A SCHMUCK FOR BUYING THE VEHICLE. I HAD NO IDEA CHRYSLER SOLD SUCH A PIECE OF CRAP. I HOPE DAIMLER FIRES ALL THEIR BUTTS. *AK

TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 65-70MPH. THERE WAS NO PRESSURE OR WARNING BEFORE VEHICLE ACTED WITHOUT GEARS. MOTOR WAS RUNNING WITH NO OVERDRIVE/ BRAKE LIGHTS, AND NO ENGAGEMENT OF GEARS. ALSO, THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF SPEED ON A BUSY TURNPIKE. TRANSMISSION WAS REBUILD IN MARCH OF 2000 . TRANSMISSION CAME WITH AN UNDER SIZED/ OVERDIVER/ REVERSE CLUTCH PISTON SMALL SIZE, CAUSING IT TO BE KNOCKED AROUND, AND MAKING SOME DEBRIS WHICH GOT INTO AREA. *AK ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 79665 MILES WHEN THE ORIGINAL OWNER WAS IN POSSESSION OF THE VEHICLE, THE REPLACEMENT FAILED AT 79665, RESULTING IN SUDDEN LOSS OF SPEED WITH NO WARNING. *SLC

4-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONTINUES TO DISPLAY SEVERE SHUTTERING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ADDITIONALLY, POWER WILL SUDDENLY DECREASE AND THE VEHICLE SLOW DOWN, THEN RAPIDLY ACCELERATE. THERE HAVE BEEN REPEATED REPAIR ATTEMPTS. PROBLEM DOES NOT ALWAYS PRESENT ITSELF, SO IT IS DIFFICULT FOR DEALER TO TROUBLESHOOT. MOST RECENTLY, BECAUSE THE DEALER TECHNICIAN COULD NOT GET THE PROBLEM TO PRESENT ITSELF, THE CHRYSLER FIELD OFFICE REFUSED REPAIR EFFORTS - DESPITE MY CLAIMS AND EVIDENCE.*AK

STRUCTURE

20 complaints

THERE IS A STRUCTURAL WEAKNESS IN THE FRONT DOORS OF DODGE/CHRYSLER MINIVANS THAT CAUSES DOOR FAILURE. THE DOORS BECOME IMPROPERLY ALIGNED WITH THE DOOR FRAME, MAKING THEM DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO OPEN AND CLOSE. THE DOOR ALSO FAILS TO LATCH PROPERLY AS A RESULT OF MISALIGNMENT. THIS CAN CAUSE THE DOOR TO FLY OPEN SUDDENLY WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING, PARTICULARLY WHEN TURNING A CORNER. IT HAPPENED TO ME, BUT FORTUNATELY MY PASSENGER WAS WEARING HIS SEATBELT AND WAS NOT THROWN OUT OF THE CAR. OTHERS MIGHT NOT BE SO LUCKY. TWO AND A HALF YEARS AGO, WHEN THE DOORS ON MY 1995 GRAND CARAVAN BEGAN TO FAIL, I WENT TO AN AUTOBODY SHOP FOR REPAIR, THINKING IT WAS A SIMPLE MATTER OF REPAIRING WELDS. I WAS TOLD THAT THE DOOR HAD BEEN REPAIRED BEFORE (BY A PREVIOUS OWNER). I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT MY LOCAL DODGE/CHRYSLER DEALER HAS REPAIRED MANY DOORS, SO THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY, AT LEAST IN THE CASE OF MY VEHICLE, THE DOORS WERE BRAISED, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE, I UNDERSTAND, TO WELD THEM. IT LOOKS TO ME AS IF THE ONLY LASTING REPAIR WOULD INVOLVE REINFORCING THE DOOR FRAME, WHICH WOULD INVOLVE EXTENSIVE BODY WORK. MY DOORS ARE FAILING AGAIN, AND I WANT A FIX THAT WILL LAST! IT SCARES ME TO DRIVE THE CAR, BECAUSE I'M AFRAID I WON'T BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF IT IN AN EMERGENCY. *NLM

I HAVE A DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WITH GEN-3 SEATBELTS IN IT AND HAVE HEARD THAT THEY OPEN DURING AN ACCIDENT. ESPECIALLY WHEN USED WITH CHILD CAR SEATS. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I HAVE A YOUNG CHILD AND HAVE HIM IN A CAR SEAT. I HAVE TO HAVE THESE SEATBELTS REPLACED AND FEEL THEY SHOULD BE RECALLED.

AIRBAG CIRCUIT RECALL DONE BUT AIRBAG FUSE FAILS CONTINUALLY AGAIN. I HAD THE AIRBAG CIRCUIT RECALL WORK PERFORMED BY WEISNER DODGE IN TOMBALL, TX OVER A YEAR AGO. ALTHOUGH THE FUSE HAD FAILED REPEATEDLY, THE DEALERSHIP ONLY INSTALLED A PATCH TO PROTECT A WIRE. ON 1/14/02, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHEN I USED THE REAR WINDSHIELD WASHER. I REPLACED THE BLOWN 20A FUSE, BUT EVERY FUSE BLOWS AS SOON AS I TURN THE IGNITION ON. I AM CONTACTING THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP IN HUNTSVILLE, TX TO MAKE THE REPAIR.

FUEL INJECTION RACKS ON MY 1995 GRAND CARAVAN [XXX] SPLIT, SPILLING FUEL OVER ENGINE. I WAS TOLD THAT OTHER GRAND CARAVANS WERE COVERED BY A RECALL, BUT THAT MINE WAS NOT. FUEL RACKS WERE REPLACED AT A COST OF $560.71 BUT CHRYSLER REFUSES TO REIMBURSE ME EVEN THOUGH THIS FAILURE IS SIMILAR TO THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE THE NHTSA TO RECONSIDER THE LIMITS OF ITS RECALL FOR THIS FAILURE ON GRAND CARAVANS.*AK UPDATED 07/25/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Jan 16, 2002

FUEL PUMP FAILED DUE TO BLOCKED FILTER (SECONDARY FILTER) HAD TO BE TOWED. NOWHERE IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL DOES IT SAY TO CHECK AND REPLACE THIS FILTER, WHICH IS ONLY A 20.00 PART. MY REAPIR COST 450.00 PLUS TOWING. I FOLLOW THE MAINTENANCE DILIGENTLY. THE CHILTON REPAI MANUAL RECOMMENDS CHANGING THIS AT 52000. WE WOULD HAVE DONE SO IF INFO PROVIDED. WE BOUGHT THE OTHER MANUAL WHEN I RETURNED HOME. THERE WAS NO WARNING AND FORTUNATELY I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AT THE TIME. CHRYSLER SAYS I CANNOT BE REIMBURSED EVEN THOUGH THEY ADMIT I AM RIGHT. LETTERS SHOULD BE SENT TO OWNERS ADVISING THEM OF THIS MORE THAN LIKELY FAILURE. THE MECHANIC WHO FIXED IT RECOMMENDS CHANGING THIS FILTER AT 30,000. HE HAS REPAIRED MANY. I WOULD HATE TO SEE SOMEONE HURT IF THIS FAILS WHILE THEY ARE ON THE HIGHWAY. IT WAS BAD ENOUGH I WAS 200 MILES FROM HOME AND IT WAS DARK.

IN THE BUILT-IN CARSEATS FOR CHILDREN, THE SEAT BELT THAT LATCHES ACROSS THE CHEST AREA IS ABLE TO BE PULLED APART WITH YOUR HANDS. IN FACT, MY DAUGHTER, WHO WAS 4 YEARS AT THE TIME, JUST STRETCHED AND THE SEAT BELT POPPED OPEN WITH HER CHEST. WE RECENTLY WENT CAR SHOPPING AND PULLED ON OTHER BUILT-IN CAR SEAT SEATBELTS AND THEY TOO WERE EASILY PULLED APART WITH OUR HANDS.

Aug 26, 2002

WHEN OUR SON WAS YOUNG ENOUGH TO USE THE BUILT IN CAR SEAT WE NOTICED THAT HE COULD OPEN THE PLASTIC CHEST CLASP BY LEANING FORWARD HARD ENOUGH. DOES THIS SEEM NORMAL FUNCTIONING TO YOU? ALTHOUGH OUR CHILDREN ARE TOO OLD FOR THE CAR SEATS NOW WE WERE WONDERING IF THIS POSES A SAFETY PROBLEM FOR OTHER FAMILIES.

IN 2003 I BOUGHT 8 FUTURA PLUS TIRES MADE BY COOPER AND SOLD BY PEP BOYS. THEY WENT ON 2 DIFFERENT VEHICLES. ALL 8 EVENTUALLY SEPARATED. ONE WAS REPLACED BY ANOTHER FUTURA PLUS AND IT HAS JUST SEPARATED ALSO. EACH AROUND 20000 TO 30000 MILES OF USE. IN EACH INSTANCE PEP BOYS REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE TIRES WERE SEPARATED EVEN THOUGH YOU CLEARLY COULD FEEL THE BUMP IN THE TIRE , AND DRIVING WITH THE TIRE CAUSED THE STEERING WHEEL TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH AS YOU TOOK OFF THE TO INCREASE TO A BAD VIBRATION. WITH SOME OF THE TIRES THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE THEM, AND I HAD TO GO TO ANOTHER STORE.

TWO PROBLEMS EXIST WITH OUR GRAND CARAVAN--THE 1ST ONE, I DO NOT KNOW IF IT WOULD BE UNDER THE COMPUTER ASPECTS OF THE VAN OR NOT, BUT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON FOR ONE SWIPE WHENEVER THEY WANT TO DO SO. WE TOOK THE VAN IN SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE AND THEY SUPPOSIDLY PUT A PART ON IT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IT DID NOT WORK, IT WAS DONE ONCE OR TWICE MORE AND TO NO AVAIL IT STILL SWEEPS THE WINDSHIELD AT RANDOM TIMES WITH THE SWITCH NOT IN THE ONE POSITION. WE HAVE HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM FROM OTHER DODGE GRAND CARAVAN OWNERS BUT HAVE NEVER SEEN THE ISSUE ADDRESSED. THE 2ND PROBLEM IS THAT THE HEADLIGHT COVERS ON THE FRONT OF THE VAN ARE VERY DISCOLOURED--TO THE POINT OF BEING YELLOW--THIS HAS NOT ONLY HAPPENED TO US, BUT TO MY SECRETARY'S DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. IT SURE MAKES FOR DULLER LIGHT WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON. IT MAKES YOU WONDER IF OTHER PEOPLE ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOU ATTENTION INTO THIS MATTER.
