ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
THIS CAR IS A LEMON AND HAS CONTINUOUS PROBLEMS. THE ENGINE GASKETS ARE NOW BAD AND LEAKING OIL ALL OVER THE ENGINE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALER (MOSER DODGE) THAT THIS IS AFFECT AND A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS 3.0 ENGINE. THIS ALSO CREATES A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD. HOWEVER DODGE SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO WITH ME TO REPAIR THIS OR SHARE THIS COST. I AM SICK AND TIRED OF DODGE AND WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE.*AK

#752942October 4, 2001
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:INTERIOR/UNDER DASH, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC
BODY CONTROL MODULE FAILURE OCCURRED DURING A MOVE FROM MARYLAND TO GEORGIA, RESULTING IN FAILURE OF WINDSHIELD WIPERS DURING RAINSTORM. ARRIVED AT DEALER ONLY 451 MILES AFTER EXPIRATION OF 75K WARRANTY. HOWEVER, NEITHER THE DEALER NOR CHRYSLER WOULD ASSIST IN REPAIR COSTS. HAVE SUBMITTED TWO LENGTHY VOQ'S TODAY AS I AM FINALLY FED UP WITH THIS CHRYSLER PRODUCT AND THE FAILURE OF CHRYSLER AND THE NHTSA TO ENACT ADDITIONAL FORCED RECALLS OF THESE VEHICLES. THE TRANSMISSION, FUEL TANK, BODY CONTROL MODULE, CLOCK SPRING (WHICH RESULTED IN INOPERATIVE AIRBAGS), AND SUSPENSION PARTS ALL FAILED LONG BEFORE THEY SHOULD HAVE. ADDITIONALLY, A CURSORY SEARCH OF BOTH NHTSA AND OTHER WEB SITES REVEALS THAT THESE PARTS HAVE A HIGH FAILURE RATE. DESPITE BEING REPLACED BY A DEALER ONLY TWO YEARS AGO, THE STEERING RACK ON MY MINIVAN IS ALREADY FAILING AGAIN. I AM EXTREMELY UNIMPRESSED WITH BOTH THE QUALITY OF THIS VEHICLE AND THE LACK OF SUPPORT FROM CHRYSLER IN ADDRESSING REPEATED FAILURES.
