1999 DODGE CARAVAN HAS TWO BASEBALL SIZE HOLES IN CASING OF TRANSMISSION AFTER BRINGING DOWN TO ? SOUND OF TRANSMISSION AND WAS TOLD IT WAS FINE BY DEALERS , I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS A DEFECT IN TRANSMISSION. I WOULD LIKE A TRANSMISSON REPLACED DUE TO ONLY HAVING FOR 11/2 YRS AND OWE 10.000.00 STILL ON LOAN.

MY DODGE CARAVAN 99, STALLS. I CAN BE TURNING A CORNER, PUTTING ON THE BRAKE, SLOWING DOWN AND THE CAR STALLS. THIS HAS PUT ME IN VERY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. MY VAN HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW. I HAD TO ASK FOR A MONITOR TO BE PUT ON THE ENGINE TO DETECT WHAT WAS HAPPENING. THIS WAS NOT OFFERED TO ME, BUT SOMEONE I WORK WITH HAD A DODGE VAN WITH THE VERY SAME PROBLEM AND THEY HAD A MONITOR PUT ON THEIRS. CURRENTLY THE VAN IS STALLING, I AM PUSHING THE BUTTON ON THE MONITOR HOPING THE PROBLEM WILL BE DETECTED. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THE VAN HAS BEEN IN FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT. AS SOMEONE I WORK WITH HAD A DODGE VAN, AN OLDER ONE, BUT SAME VAN, WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS IT MAKES ME CONCERNED THAT MY VAN HAS SOME KIND OF DEFECT. AS THIS IS MY ONLY CAR, AND I CAN NOT AFFORD A NEW ONE AT THIS TIME I AM FORCED TO DRIVE IT NEVER EVER KNOWING WHEN IT WILL STALL AND I WILL LOOSE CONTROL AS I LOOSE MY POWER BRAKES AND STEERING. INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS.

CONSUMER STATES THE VEHICLES HORN WILL NOT BLOW AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. THE CAUSE IS UNKNOWN. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. TS

CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING AND WITHOUT WARNING THE REAR TRANSMISSION SEAL CRACKED CAUSING FLUID TO LEAK.*JB

SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2001, FOLLOWING DEALER OIL CHANGE, I BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE EPISODES OF STRONG RAW FUEL FUMES, ESPECIALLY AFTER PUTTING ANY AMOUNT OF FUEL IN VAN. MANY WITNESSES DOCUMENT FUMES. I AM AFRAID OF FIRE RISK AND OF THE HEALTH RISKS OF FUMES. I HAVE A SMALL CHILD AND I HAVE ASTHMA, SO THIS IS A HARMFUL SITUATION. ANYTHING LEFT IN CAR SMELLS LIKE A GAS STATION. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER FIVE TIMES. THEY SAY THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. STARTED AT 20K MILES. NOW 30K. ALSO HAD CYLINDER #3 FUEL INJECTOR FAIL AT 27K. (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SENSOR WENT AT 20K AND MOLD FOUND IN VAPOR CANISTER.) CHRYSLER WON'T HELP. ALSO REFERENCE ODI COMPLAINTS #748730, 757182, 886982, 9004682 FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS REPORTED. PLEASE, I NEED HELP RIGHT AWAY.

I NOTIFIED THE FIRST INCIDENT TO THE DEALER ABOUT ITS SPEED SENSOR, OVER THE PHONE, WHICH BLEW AWAY JUST AFTER THE TWO WEEKS OF BUYING THIS CAR FROM HIS SHOWROOM. LAST MONTH, THE BREAK WENT BAD AND WERE NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY, I HAD TO END UP REPLACING THE ROTOR AND COMPLETE BRAKE SET, PAYING AROUND $300 FROM MY POCKET, FROM A MIDAS IN PENNSYLVANIA. THE THIRD INCIDENT WAS MOST DANGEROUS, AND DON'T KNOW HOW I SAVED THE LIFE OF MY TWO LITTLE KIDS INCLUDING THE ONE WITH 11MONTHS INFANT BABY, THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION BLEW AWAY WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY AND LOST CONTROL ON THE DOWNHILL, IN THE CITY OF NORRISTOWN, SINCE ITS BREAK AND THE ENTIRE SYSTEM WENT OFF DUE TO THE FAILURE OF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND I EVENTUALLY TOOK A GREAT RISK OF PULLING THE CAR ALL BE MYSELF ON THE SIDEWALK AND SOMEHOW PROTECTED EACH OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS. THIS CAR IS PROVEN TO BE VERY UNSAFE AND DOES NOT WORTH THE LIFE OF MY KIDS AND MY FAMILY. I SINCERELY REQUEST TO HELP ME HAVE MY MONEY BACK AT THE EARLIEST. THE DEALER IS VERY RUDE AND ROUGH OVER THE PHONE AND DOES NOT LET ME SPEAK AT ALL. IT TOOK ME SEVERAL YEARS TO SAVE THIS MONEY TO BUY THIS CAR BUT THE DEALER HAS REALLY DECEIVED ME BY GIVING A FAULTY CAR. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS CAR DID NOT UNDERGO FOR ANY KIND OF SAFETY INSPECTION AS LONG AS IT WAS SITTING IN HIS SHOWROOM AND I AM VERY AFRAID OF DRIVING NOW. *TR

CONSUMER NOTICE WHILE TRAVELING INTERMITTENT STRONG GAS SMELL IN SIDE VEHICLE OR WHILE FUEL TANK IS FULL. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. TS

1999 DODGE CARAVAN: STRONG FUEL ODERS ENTER CARGO/PASSENGER AREA OF VEHICLE - ODERS ALSO NOTICIBLE OUTSIDE OF VAN. FUMES ARE POTENTIAL FOR SPONTANIOUS COMBUSTION. ALSO, EXPOSURE TO GAS FUMES (DURING EXTENDED TRIPS AND OVER CUMULATIVE TIME) CAN BE HARMFUL TO MAJOR ORGAN COMPONENTS WITHIN THE HUMAN BODY - ESPECIALLY TO DEVELOPING INFANTS. A FORMER COMPLAINT WAS SUBMITTED USING ODI ID: 748730 SURROUNDING DATE: 09/06/2001. "COMPONENT: FUEL: FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY: TANK SUMMARY: SMELL GASOLINE COMING FROM THE FUEL TANK, A SMALL AMOUNT OF GAS WAS LEAKING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE FUEL TANK, DUE TO THE ROLLOVER VALVE WAS LEAKING ON THE FUEL TANK, REPLACE FUEL TANK." THE CONCLUSION LEADS THE READER TO BELIEVE THERE'S POTENTIAL FOR IGNITION IF VEHICLE SHOULD BE IN PROXIMITY OF AN UNEXTINGUISHED CIGGARETTE, EX: AT A STOP LIGHT ONCE A DRIVER/PASSENGER IN PROXIMITY PLUCKS A BUTT NEAR VEHICLE. THE FINDINGS ALSO LEAD THE READER TO BELIEVE THE ROLL OVER VALVE WILL FAIL WHEN CAPSIZED CONTRIBUTING TO CATISTROPHIC IGNITION/EXPLOSION.

AFTER MY ACCIDENT THE BACK SEAT HAD POPPED OFF THE TRACK AND WAS NO LONGER ATTACHED TO THE CAR. I WAS ALMOST STOPPED AND THE MAN WHO HIT ME WAS DOING MAYBE 30 MPH. I BROUGHT IT UP TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN MY AREA AND THEY SAID THAT IT SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE IT AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHY IT DID BUT THE SEAT IS BACK IN PLACE SO DONT WORRY ABOUT IT. I CALLED DODGE THE COMPANY AND THEY TOLD ME SINCE THERE WAS NO MAJOR PROPERTY DAMAGE OR NO INJURIES OR FATALITIES THEY WEREN'T GOING TO CHECK OUT WHY THE SEAT POPPED OUT. DT

A COUPLE DAYS BEFORE THE HORN COMPLETELY QUIT WORKING. THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD COME ON THEN I HONKED THE HORN AND IT HONKED DIFFERENT THAN NORMAL, NOT A FULL HONK. THE NEXT DAY THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYED ON AND WHEN I WENT TO HONK THE HORN IT DIDN'T WORK ANYMORE,THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME NOW. DT

I BEGAN TO NOTICE OIL UNDERNEATH MY 1999 DODGE CARAVAN ON MY CONCRETE DRIVEWAY. IT APPEARED TO COME FROM THE VALVE COVER. THE VEHICLE MILEAGE WAS ONLY 47,000 AND THE VAN LESS THAN TWO YEARS OLD. ALLSTAR DODGE SERVICE TOLD ME IT COULD BE THE VALVE COVER OR THE HEAD GASKET WHICH HE ADVISED COULD COST AROUND A THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REPAIR. MY CARAVAN WAS OUT OF WARRANTY (3YR/36,000 MILES) I TOOK THE VAN TO A MECHANIC. HE REPAIRED THE VALVE COVER GASKET AND NOTICE NO OTHER PROBLEM AT THE TIME. TWO MONTHS LATER THE HEAD GASKET FAILED. I CONTACTED ALLSTAR DODGE SERVICE WHOM ADVISED ME THAT THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE CARAVAN AND NO RECALLS. I TOOK THE VAN BACK TO MY MECHANIC TO HAVE THE HEAD GASKET REPAIRED. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THE ENGINE IN THIS VAN IS THE SAME 2.4L ENGINE THAT WAS RECALLED IN THE DODGE NEONS 1997 WITH FAULTY GASKETS. HE STATED THAT I MAY WANT TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE SINCE FOUND COMPLAINTS ABOUT BOTH THE VALVE COVER AND THE HEAD GASKET PROBLEM. I PRAY OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS WOULD FILE COMPLAINTS SO THAT SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO REMEDY THESE PROBLEMS AND BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT OR DIES. *AK

IN OUR 1999 CARAVAN, SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, THE CRUISE CONTROL AND HORN BEGAN TO INTERMITTENTLY NOT WORK. THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY WOULD COME ON WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. AT THIS TIME NEITHER THE HORN, THE CRUISE CONTROL AND SOMETIMES THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL NOT WORK AT ALL. THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL STILL COME ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. WE CALLED THE DEALER'S REPAIR SERVICE AND THEY TOLD US THAT THEY THOUGHT IT SOUNDED LIKE THE CLOCK SPRING MECHANISM. UPON TAKING THE VEHICLE IN FOR PHYSICAL INSPECTION/ DIAGNOSTICS, AN OPEN CIRCUIT WAS DETECTED AND WE WERE INFORMED THAT THE CLOCKSPRING INDEED NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, AT THIS TIME THE NECESSARY PART IS BACKORDERED (ON A NATIONAL BASIS) AND IS NOT IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE. THE TECHNICIAN TOLD US THAT IF WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY. SINCE WE DRIVE OUR MINIVAN PRIMARILY WITH OUR ENTIRE FAMILY ON BOARD (IE, MYSELF, MY SPOUSE, AND 4 YOUNG CHILDREN) I AM GREATLY CONCERNED THAT WE ARE NOT ABLE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATLY FIXED. UPON VIEWING YOUR WEBSITE I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS HAS BEEN STARTED BUT DID NOT FIND OUT THE STATUS OF THIS INVESTIGATION. IF THESE PARTS ARE "NATIONALLY" BACKORDERED, THAT SHOULD TELL YOU THAT THERE IS A BIG PROBLEM OUT THERE. IF EVEN ONE OF THOSE VEHICLES IS IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY, THERE IS SEVERE RISK OF PHYICAL INJURY TO THE DRIVER/PASSENGER AND POSSIBLY ADDITIONAL PASSENGERS IN THIS VEHICLE. PLEASE CONTINUE YOUR

DEALER IS REFUSING TO ALLOW ME TO TALK TO THE DODGE FACTOR REP. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED FOR ABOVE VEHICLE. *AK

ON APRIL 18, 2002 I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER FOR THEM TO INVESTIGATE A NOISE WHICH SOUNDED LIKE METAL ON METAL. SERVICE DROVE MY VEHICLE AND AFTER HEARING NOISE FOR HIMSELF, THEY PUT IT ON THE RACK AND SAID "WE TIGHTENED A FEW THINGS" (ON WORKSHEET STATED "CHECKED ENGINE") AND SAID TO COME BACK IF ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS. ON THE MORNING OF MAY 2, 2002, I RETURNED HOME FROM AN ERRAND AND PARKED MY VAN IN THE GARAGE. LATER THAT DAY I WENT OUTSIDE AND NOTICED DRIPPINGS IN THE STREET IN FRONT OF MY HOME INTO MY DRIVE AND GARAGE. BACKED THE CAR UP A LITTLE AND DISCOVERED A POOL OF PINKISH FLUID. NEIGHBOR CAME OVER AND VERIFIED THAT IT WAS TRANSMISSION FLUID. I CALLED DEALER AND WAS TOLD TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I DID SO. LEFT THE VEHICLE. THEY CALLED ME LATER IN THE DAY AND INFORMED ME THAT MY VAN NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE EXPLANATION WAS THAT "DIFFERENTIAL PIN CAME LOOSE AND WENT THROUGH CASE. NOT REBUILDABLE." SO, THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. I HAVE WRITTEN TO CHRYSLER AND THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF THAT; IN FACT, LAST WEEK, DISTRICT PEOPLE WERE TO HAVE BEEN HERE, SUPPOSEDLY TO MEET ON THIS; HOWEVER, I HAVE RECEIVED NO INFORMATION FROM THEM REGARDING THE RESOLUTION OF THIS.*AK

A PART IN THE REAR LATCH ASSEMBLY BROKE AND I WAS UNABLE TO USE MY REAR DOOR UNTIL THE DEALER ORDERED A NEW PART AND INSTALLED IT. MY CONTENTION IS THAT THIS PART SHOULD NOT HAVE COST ME $143.95 BECAUSE THE PART DID NOT BREAK FROM ABUSE AND THE VEHICLE IS FAIRLY NEW. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN BECAUSE THE PART THAT BROKE WAS PLASTIC.

NO SUMMARY LISTED FOR ABOVE VEHICLE. *AK
