I HAVE A 2001 CHRYSLER VOYAGER MINIVAN AND THE COMPANY DID A RECALL FOR THE 1998-2000 FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING. THE LIGHT FOR THE AIR BAG WILL COME ON BECAUSE THERE IS A MALFUNCTION WITH THE SYSTEM. IF THE LIGHT IS ON THE BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF YOU ARE IN AN ACCIDENT. I THINK THAT THE COMPANY SHOULD HAVE TO FIX BECAUSE OUR VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE YEARS THAT THEY RECALLED. *NM

THE STEERING WHEEL CAME COMPLETELY OFF THE COLUMN. THE DRIVER TAPPED THE BRAKES AND CRUISED INTO A DITCH. *PH *JB

APPEARS OUTSIDE LAYER OF WINDSHIELD ASSEMBLY CRACKED WHILE INSIDE LAYER REMAINED INTACT. NO EVIDENCE OF AN IMPACT EITHER OUTSIDE OR INSIDE. NO KNOWN IMPACT WAS EXPERIENCED. *LA

ALTHOUGH THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT, THERE IS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF ACCEPTABLE REPLACEMENT TIME BEFORE PADS SHOULD BE CHANGED. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THESE JUST ABOUT EVERY THREE MONTHS. THE ROTORS HAVE BEEN DONE AT THE SAME TIME. NORMALLY I WOULD SAY THAT THE REPAIR SHOP WAS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME, BUT THIS HAS BEEN DONE WITH MORE THAN JUST A SECOND OPINION AND A MECHANIC FOR A FATHER IN LAW. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND I KNOW IM NOT THE ONLY CONSUMER THAT IS IN THIS SITUATION. PADS SHOULD NOT BE REPLACED THAT OFTEN ESPECIALLY WITH MOST OF THE MILEAGE COMING FROM HIGHWAY USE RATHER THAN CITY USE. *AK

CONSUMER CALLED COMPLAINING ABOUT HAVING PROBLEMS WITH BACK TAIL LIGHT. ALSO STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE BACK COVER FOR THE TAIL LIGHT POP OFF WHICH CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE.

I BOUGHT THE ABOVE MENTIONED BRAND NEW CHRYSLER VOYAGER LX '02 MINIVAN ON THE CHRISTMAS EVE, 2001. I DID NOT DRIVE MUCHAT AT THE BEGINING BUT AFTER 5/6 MONTHS WHEN I MADE A INTERSTATE TRIP TO CT, I WAS SHOCKED AND NARROWLY ESCAPED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT BY "AN IMMAGE OF A SPINNING DISCLIKE STAFF APPEARED ON WINDSHIELD AT PASSANGER SIDE". SINCE THEN I REALIZED THAT THERE WAS VERY VISIBLE IMMAGE/REFLECTION OF A SPINNING DISK ON WIND SHIELD.I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED DAIMLERCHRYSLER AND THE DEALER (MAJOR CHRYSLER PLYMOUTH JEEP EAGLE, NY). THEY INSPECTED AND CONFIRMED/CERTIFIED MY CLAIM. THEN THEY DECIDED TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD. AFTER CHANGING THE WIND SHIELD THE PROBLEM STILL REMAIN THE SAME. THE DEALER FINALLY SAID THAT NOTHING MUCH THEY COULD HELP. BACK AND FORTH FOR 4 MONTHS I JUST REPORTED DIAMLERCHRYSLER THAT THE DEALER COULD NOT HELP FURTHER AND NOW THE ISSUE WAS WITH THEM. EITHER THEY SHOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE WITH ME AS SOONEST OR I WILL TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION. THIS IS SERIUOS SAFETY HAZARD, WHEN DRIVING WITH FULL PERMISSIBLE SPEED THE IMMAGE IS DAMAGING. THREREFORE, I CAN NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY. IT IS A NIGHTMARE FOR ME. THAT IMMAGE DETORIATE THE HAZARD ON SUNNY DAY. AS I UNDERSTAND, NOT ALL VEHICLES OF THAT BATCH/MODEL ARE NOT WITH THIS DEFECT (DIAMLERCHRYSLER/MAJOR MENTIONED) BUT THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE IS. IT IS NOT FAIR, AFTER SPENDING OVER $27000 I HAVE TO LIVE WITH FARE AND DISCOMFORT FOR THIS VEHICLE. IT IS ALSO NOTED THAT THE VEHICLE CAME WITH IT'S REGULAR 1 YEAR FULL AND 3 YEARS LIMITED WARRANTY. I DEMAND FULL REFUND OR REPLACE WITH A SIMILAR SAFE VEHICLE.*AK

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 CHRYSLER VOYAGER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 2 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A SQUEAKING NOISE IN THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 01V152000 (SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER ARM), THAT MAY BE RELATED TO THE FAILURE.

I FIRST NOTICED THE SOUND, AND THE FEELING IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN I DROVE THE CAR HOME FROM THE DEALER AFTER PURCHASE. IT SEEMS TO COME FROM THE LEFT FRONT AND IS SEVERE WHEN HITTING THE SMALLEST BUMPS. I BELIEVE IT TO BE A SUSPENSION OR STEERING PROBLEM AND AM CONCERNED ABOUT IT BEING UNSAFE AND CAUSING PREMATURE TIRE WEAR. THE DEALER KEPT THE MINIVAN FOR 2 DAYS AND SAID THE FACTORY WAS UNABLE TO TELL THEM HOW TO REPAIR THIS. I ALSO BELIEVE OTHERS HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. I CAN'T BELIEVE THE FACTORY CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO SOLVE THIS ANNOYING AND POTENTIALLY UNSAFE PROBLEM.*AK
