#706601May 17, 1999
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:FAN
BECAUSE THE RADIATOR FAN ENGINE WENT OUT AND THE PLUG BURNED INTO WE NEED A NEW PLUG, BUT TO OUR SURPRISE CHRYSLER SAYS THEY WON'T SELL THE PLUG, BUT INSTEAD WE WILL NEED TO PURCHASE THE WIRING HARNESS AT THE TUNE OF $800.00 WHICH IS THE MECHANIC'S COST. WE WERE TRYING TO FIND A PLUG AT A SALVAGE YARD, BUT NONE ARE AVAILABLE. WE WERE TOLD THAT THIS PART IS IN HIGH DEMAND BECAUSE OF THE HIGH FAILURE RATE. IS CHRYSLER MAKING THIS PART OUT OF TOO LIGHT A MATERIAL FOR THE AMOUNT OF CURRENT? IF WE CAN FIND ONE AT A SALVAGE YARD THEY TOLD US THEY SELL THEM FOR $20.00. A FRIEND IS CHECKING SALVAGES IN ANOTHER STATE FOR US. WHY WON'T CHRYSLER SELL THEM? WHY DO THEY TRY TO FORCE US TO BUY A WHOLE HARNESS AT THE OUTRAGEOUS PRICE OF $800.00? THE FAN ENGINE WAS $247.50 AND THEN $800.00 ON TOP OF THAT FOR THE HARNESS. QUITE AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR.*AK

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE
THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED & BEEN REPAIRED 3 TIMES SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. IT STALLS AND YOU LOSES ALL POWER. THIS HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME AS WE WERE GOING OVER RAILROAD TRACKS. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE MAKING LEFT TURNS. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW YOU HAVE A PROBLEM UNTIL YOU ARE DRIVING ALONG AND LOSE POWER. THIS WAS REPAIRED BY VERO BEACH CHRYSLER THE FIRST TIME, AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. CECONNI CHRYSLER SAID IT CETAINLY WAS A WARRANTY ITEM AND GOT OUR MONEY REIMBURSED BY CHRYSLER. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED IT WAS REPAIRED GATOR CHRYSLER-PLYMOUTH, MELBOURNE, FL 32901. THE MILEAGE WAS 53,000 THE SECOND TIME AND THEY SAID IT WAS NO LONGER WARRANTIED. THE THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED THE MILEAGE WAS 95,200 AND WE AGAIN PAID FOR THE REPAIR. THIS IS A VERY UPSETTING PROBLEM. IT HAS HAPPENED DURING LEFT HAND TURNS. *AK
