IN MAY OF 1996 I NOTICED THAT THE PAINT ON THE ROOF OF THE MINI-VAN WAS PEELING VERY BAD. MY HUSBAND WAS TRAVELING AROUND THE COUNTRY IN THE VAN AND WE WERE THEREFORE UNABLE TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT IMMEDIATELY. AS TIME PASSED, THE PEELING WORSENED AND OTHER AREAS ALSO STARTED TO PEEL (THE HOOD, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR) AND MY HUSBAND THEN CONFRONTED A DEALERSHIP IN 1/97 ABOUT THE ISSUE. THEY SAID BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED EDITION COLOR, THE PAINT JOB WOULD BE VERY EXPENSIVE. THE TOP OF THE VAN HAS SINCE BEGUN TO RUST, AS HAVE SECTIONS OF THE HOOD AND SOME OF THE DR SIDE DOOR.

THE FRONT PASSENGER & DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT BUCKLES DO NOT LATCH PROPERLY. ON SEVERAL OCCASION BOTH SEAT BELTS WERE NOT SECURED WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERVERE INJURY IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURED. *YC

NHTSA RECALL 99V113000 AND MANUFACTURER'S RECALL 818.CONSUMER WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THE REMEDY OF THE RECALL. THEY DISCONNECTED THE FUSE AND HE FELT THAT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. *AK

WHENEVER DRIVING BETWEEN 35 & 45MPH VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE VERY BADLY. VEHICLE TAKEN TO DEALER & MECHANIC, REPLACED THE AXLE/STRUTS/ TIE ROD ENDS/TIRES/BRAKES & TURNED THE ROTORS. THE CAUSE OF THE SHAKING HAS NOT BEEN FOUND OR CORRECTED. *AK

WE HAD TO REPLACE 2 TRANSMISSION TWICE IN THE LAST 18 MONTHS, DUE TO A PIN BREAKING IN THE TRANSMISSION, AND THEY DIDN'T REPLACE SEAL , THEY USED SILICONE INSTEAD. THE AIRCONDITIIONER HAS NEVER WORKED , IT WAS WINTER WHEN WE GOT IT AND TRUST THEM TO BE HONEST, THE FIRST DAY OF HOT WEATHER IT DID NOT WORK! THE LIGHTER AND HORN CANNOT BE USED TOGETHER, BECAUSE THEY BLOW FUSES, AND THEY ALSO KNEW ABOUT THAT, AND SAID THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT AND NEVER DID!!!!!!

I RECENTLY HEARD ON NEWS THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR 1994 PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION BY MAIL. I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THE VAN IN TEXAS BUT NOW RESIDE IN OLYMPIA. PLEASE PROVIDE ME ANY INFORMATION APPLICABLE TO RECALLS ON PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER (SE). INFORMATION REQUEST, NO SAFETY DEFECT (S) MENTIONED IN THE SUMMARY. *AK

MY WIFE USES THIS VEHICLE. ON A FAMILY TRIP IN APRIL I HEARD A RATTLING THAT SOUNDED LIKE A DOOR PARTIALLY OPENED BUT I COULD NOT LOCATE THE SOURCE. A COUPLE DAYS LATER I WENT TO SUPERMARKET AND TRIED TO OPEN THE REAR HATCH WITH MY KEY. THE REAR HATCH WOULD NOT OPEN. I USED THE ELECTRIC DOOR LATCH AND THE REAR HATCH OPENED. AT THIS TIME I NOTICED THE THREE MOUNTING BOLTS FOR THE LOCK MECHANISM WERE GONE. I PUT IN THREE METRIC BOLTS (SAE BOLTS WOULD NOT FIT IN THE PRESENT HOLES) BUT FOUND THEY LOOSENED OVER TIME. I FINALLY PUT IN 3 BOLTS WITH LOCK WASHERS AND DOUBLE NUTS TO PREVENT BACK OFF. I OBSERVED THAT THE METAL WAS TOO SOFT AND FATIGUED BECAUSE THE THREADS WERE NON-EXISTENT, WHICH MEANT IT USE AS A LOCK ASSEMBLY IS INCORRECT AND DANGEROUS. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN WHO RIDE IN THIS VAN AND I AM VERY CONCERNED. THIS UNIT WAS REPLACED UNDER A RECALL ON 4/23/96, RECALL #CFXG6405, AUTH CODE 3831, PERFORMED BY CHRYSLER PLYMOUTH OF PARAMUS NEW JERSEY, 234 ROUTE 4 EAST, PHONE 845-0701. CHRYSLER IS A VERY DIFFICULT COMPANY TO DEAL WITH. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NOT HELPFUL. I TRIED CALLING BUT THE LINE IS CONSTANTLY BUSY. THIS MATTER SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. *AK

THE SLIDING DOOR BROKE OFF FROM THE HINGES AND MAY HAVE CAUSED INJURIES. DEALER SAID IT DUE TO THE WEAR AND TEAR OF THE DOOR, AND THAT IT IS NORMAL THAT DOOR SHOULD BREAK OFF. COMMON PROBLEM. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK

WHEN CONSUMER'S SON CLOSED THE SLIDING DOOR, IT FELL OFF. NO ONE WAS INJURED. *AK

WHILE DRIVING LESS THAN 25 MPH VEHICLE STARTED TO JERK , AND NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS LEAKING .THE VEHICLE HAD NO WARNING LIGHT THAT INDICATED THERE WAS FLUID LEAKING, WHICH COULD BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD. *AK

SIDE SLIDING DOOR FELL OFF TRACK. *AK

NO DEPLOYMENT OF AIR BAGS DURING VEHICLE COLLISON, RESULTING IN INJURIES. *YC

THIS IS THE SECOND TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE FIRST OCCURRED AT 42,000 MILES IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY SAN FRANCISCO INTERSECTION. THE LATEST INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE MERGING ONTO A FREEWAY, PUTTING SEVERAL VEHICLES AT RISK, INCLUDING OUR VAN FULL OF CHILDREN. THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET AS WELL AS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FROM A CHRYSLER REPRESENTATIVE INDICATES THIS IS A PREVASIVE PROBLEM.

NO SUMMARY

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO CONTACT CHRYSLER, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE SUED FOR SELLING CARS WITH FAULTY AIR BAGS. I AM VERY ANGRY THAT AT 40 MILES PER HOUR, AN ACCIDENT DIDN'T DEPLOY THE AIR BAG., THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE SLAMMED AN OUT OF CONTROL VEHICLE, SPINNING IN A SNOW STORM AT 40 MPH, AND THE AIRBAGS DIDDN'T DEPLOY, WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF MY WIFE WAS TRAVELING AT 65 MPH AND GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. I KNEW THESE AIR BAGS ARE JUST A BUNCH OF BULL.. WHAT DO I DO ABOUT THIS. [email protected]. *AK

BEEN THROUGH 2 TRANSMISSIONS AT EVERY 40-50,000 MILES WHICH MAY CAUSE A LOSS OF CONTROL WHILE DRIVING. CAUSE UNKNOWN. DEALER CANNOT DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK

ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPS WHILE DRIVING. IT STARTS RIGHT UP

WHILE IN PARK WITH ENGINE RUNNING, CAR LURCHED BACKWARD, TRAPPING DRIVER UNDER CAR.

LUGGAGE RACK CROOSOVER FAILED, PINS THAT LOCK ON THE SIDE OF RACK BROKE, WHICH COULD CAUSE INJUIRES IF LUGGAGE IS TO FALL UNEXPECTEDLY. *AK

THE TRANS-AXLE SEEMS TO HAVE A ELECTRICAL GLITCH THAT WILL PREVENT IT FROM SHIFTING GEARS. IF I TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND THEN BACK ON WHILE MOVING FORWARD, THE TRANS WILL SHIFT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND THEY SAID I HAVE A CHIP PROBLEM AND THE ONLY WAY IT COULD BE FIXED IS REPLACED WITH A NEW TRANS-AXEL. ($2700.). TODAY THE TRANS STARTED MAKING VERY LOUD NOISE WHEN SHIFTING. I LOOKED UNDER TO SEE IF ANY THING WAS FALLING OUT AND A BRACE THAT SEEMS TO BE A TORQUE BRACE IS BROKEN. I AM GOING TO HAVE THAT LOOKED AT TODAY. HOWEVER THAT IS NOT GOING TO FIX THE SHIFTING. IT SEMS THAT WE ARE BUYING DISPOSABLE CARS NOW DAYS.

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH A LOUD NOISE CAME FROM THE FRONT OF THE VAN, THE TRANSMISSION THREW A GEAR, THE VAN STARTED SMOKING AND CAUGHT ON FIRE IN THE TRANSMISSION. THIS HAPPENED WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF WARNING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND CLAIMED NO RESPONSIBILITY.*AK

INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING LONG PERIODS OF TIME AND WITH AIR CONDITIONER ON, THE VEHICLE WILL STALL UNEXPECTEDLY WHICH ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. CAUSE UNKNOWN. PLEASE PROVIDE DETAILS. *AK

I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY INFORMATION REGARDING A RECALL, ETC...

SIDE WINDOW GLASS SHATTERED WHILE TRAVELING. CONSUMER INDICATES IT IS A POTENTIAL GENERIC PROBLEM. HAPPENED 5 TIMES BEFORE.

TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR THE SECOND TIME. DEALER HAS TRIED TO FIX, AND CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. *AK

CONSUMER WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. DURING THE ACCIDENT, HARNESS STRAPS ON THE CHILD SAFETY SEAT THAT GO ACROSS CHEST, BECAME UNBUCKLED UNEXPECTEDLY. BUCKLE BECOMES UNLATCHED WHEN PULLED OR JERKED, CAUSING THE CHILD TO BECOME UNRESTRAINT. *AK

THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER. NUMEROUS OTHER OWNERS I KNOW HAVE HAD EVAPORATORS FAIL RIGHT AFTER WARRANTY PERIOD. MY VEHICLE HAS 35,000 MILES BUT IS 4 YEARS OLD SO IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. BOTH FRONT AND REAR EVAPORATORS HAVE FAILED AT SAME TIME.

FRONT LEFT TIE ROD FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING.

THE VEHICLE WAS STUCK IN 2ND GEAR BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. VEHICLES 4TH TRANSMISSION. *AK

TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY FAILED.

I'VE OWNED MANY CARS IN MY LIFE AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A TRANSMISSION. WITH THIS ONE, WE'VE DONE IT TWICE. THE FRUSTRATING THING IS CHRYSLER KNEW OF THE PROBLEM AFTER '93 AND DID NOTHING TO FIX IT UNTIL 96. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER AMERICAN MADE CAR. THEY ARE MADE VERY BADLY, AND NOONE SEEMS TO CARE.

VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING SEVERAL PROBLEMS THAT ARE LISTED IN NHTSA'S COMPLAINT DATA BASE.

TRANSMISSION/TORQUE CONVERTER FAILED, CAUSING VEHICLE TO LUNCH FORWARD. PROBLEM OCCURS USUALLY AFTER TRIPS OVER 5 MILES WHEN TRANSMISSION IS WARMED UP. INITIALLY, DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED IT AS THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR FAILURE, AND REPLACED THE PART. AFTER THE FOURTH FAILURE, DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED IT AS TORQUE CONVERTER MALFUNCTIONING.
