VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER
FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS AS WELL AS REAR WIPERS COME ON AT VARIOUS TIMES WITHOUT WARNING. REAR WIPERS DO NOT COME ON AS OFTEN AS THE FRONT . FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON CONSTANTLY WITHOUT EVER TURNING THEM ON, JUST ABOUT EVERY TIME I MAKE A TURN AND EVEN WHEN I'AM JUST GOING STRAIGHT. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON WHEN THEY WANT TO , AND CUT OFF WHEN THEY WANT TO, IF IT'S RAINING OR NOT. ITS SCARY BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW IF THEY WILL COME ON WHEN YOU REALLY NEED THEM. THANK YOU. *AK

WHEELS:LUGS/NUTS/BOLTS/STUDS
15 INCH WHEEL HAS A DEFORMED LUG: NUT SEAT CONFIGURATION WHICH CAUSES POOR NUT TO WHEEL CONTACT. VEHICLE NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL NUMBER 93V098000. WHILE DRIVING BAD VIBRATION, CONSUMER GOT OFF THE FREEWAY AND THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL BROKE OFF THE HUB, AFTER PUTTING IN NEW WHEEL BOLTS THEY LOOSENED AGAIN BUT DID NOT BREAK OFF, LARGER BOLTS INSTALLED AND THEY ARE WORKING FINE, CONSUMER FEELS THAT IS MAY BE A POSSIBILITY THAT THE SPARE TIRE THAT WAS ON FOR A WHILE WHICH IS STEELK WAS NOT SEATING PROPERLY STARTED THE PROBLEM WITH THE WHEEL BOLTS. *MJS

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
NEITHER AIRBAG DEPLOYED IN THIS FRONTAL ACCIDENT THAT WAS VIOLENT ENOUGH TO DAMAGE ALMOST EVERYTHING FROWARD OF THE FIREWALL. THE FRONT OF THIS VEHICLE (PRIMARLY RIGHT FRONT), HIT THE SIDE PASSANGER DOOR OF A CAR THAT MADE A SUDDEN LEFT TURN ACROSS IT'S PATH. ALTHOUGH THE INSURANCE COMPANIES HAVEN'T YET SAID SO, I ASSUME BOTH CARS WILL BE CONSIDERED TOTALLED. I SUGGEST YOU EXAMINE THIS VEHICLE TO DETERMINE IF THE AIRBAGS WERE FAULTY BEFORE ANY CHANGES CAN BE MADE.. IT IS CURRENTLY AT ROYAL GATE DODGE, 15502 MANCHESTER RD., ELLISVILLE, MO 63011, TELEPHONE (636) 394-3400.
