LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
AFTER ONLY THREE YEARS, THE LOCK ACTUATOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WENT BAD SO THAT IT DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHEN I START DRIVING AND I CANNOT LOCK IT USING THE REMOTE OR THE SWITCH ON THE DRIVERS DOOR. I WOULD NOT HAVE THOUGHT ANYTHING WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY UNTIL I SPOKE TO 3 FRIENDS OF MINE THAT ALSO OWN 2000 CHRYSLER PRODUCTS WHICH THEY ALSO HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ACTUATORS IN. THIS SEEMS LIKE AN AWFUL HIGH RATE OF FAILURE.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

THIS WELL MAINTAINED CHRYSLER 2.7 LITER V6 FAILED AT AN ALARMING RATE. THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 07-002-02 WAS ISSUED BY CHRYSLER REGARDING COOLANT SERVICING.
