I AM A TEACHER AND LEAVE FOR WORK EARLY IN THE MORNING. I LIVE ON AN UNLIT SEMIRURAL ROAD WITH NO SIDEWALKS. CHILDREN WALK ALONG THE ROAD IN ORDER TO GET TO THE SCHOOLBUS STOP AT THE END OF MY BLOCK. I CAME VERY CLOSE TO STRIKING A GROUP OF CHILDREN BECAUSE ALTHOUGH MY LIGHTS WERE ON AND I WAS DRIVING VERY SLOWLY I COULD NOT SEE THEM IN THE EARLY MORNING LIGHT/DARKNESS. I HAVE SINCE NOTICED THAT I CAN NOT SEE THE ROAD VERY WELL AFTER DARK AND UPON CHECKING (I THOUGHT MY HEADLIGHT BULBS HAD FAILED) DISCOVERED THAT THE PLASTIC HEADLIGHT COVERS HAVE CLOUDED OVER AND FAR LESS THAN NORMAL LIGHT IS EMITTED AND THAT LIGHT IS GREATLY DIFFUSED RENDERING OPERATION OF MY VEHICLE AT NIGHT UNSAFE.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSON FAILED WHILE DRIVING HOME THAT NIGHT

ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO I REPORTED THAT THE HEADLIGHT LENSES ON MY PLYMOUTH VOYAGER, 1992, HAVE BECOME SO FOGGED OVER THAT IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE WHEN DRIVING WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON. I HAVE SEEN OTHER VEHICLES OF THIS MAKE WITH SIMILAR CONDITIONS. I ASKED IF I SHOULD TAKE IT TO A DEALER AND IF LTHEY ARE REQUIRED TO REPLACE THE CLOUDED LENSES. SO FAR I HAVE NOT HAD ANY RESPONSE FROM YOU. WINTER DARKNESS IS COMING ON AND I WILL BE DOING A LOT MORE DRIVING WITH MY HEADLIGHTS ON AND WOULD LIKE THIS PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF. I DRIVE ALMOST 200 MILES PER DAY AND AM VERY CONCERNED.

WHENEVER BRAKES ARE APPLIED VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP PROPERLY. PEDAL WOULD GO TO THE FLOOR. DEALER REPLACED THREE MASTER CYLINDERS. THEN NOTICED FLUID LEAKING FROM ENGINE RESERVOIR. ASKING HELP FROM NHTSA IN THIS MATTER. *AK

UPON IMPACT, DRIVER'S AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. *AK

I HAVE HAD 4 TRANSMISSIONS REPLACED TO DATE ALL OF WHICH FAILED AND AM ON NUMBER 5! ALL REPLACEMENTS HAVE BEEN FACTORY REBUILT UNITS. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE LAST TWO WITHIN THE LAST 45 DAYS. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND I FEEL THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. I PAID $ 911.00 FOR THE 7/70 ADDED SERVICE PROTECTION PACKAGE WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WHICH COVERED THE FIRST REPLACEMENT. I HAVE PAID FOR THE REST BUT THIS DESIGN DEFECT SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF CHRYSLER AND THEY SHOULD PICK UP THE EXPENSE.
