#757697February 3, 2002
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
THE ABS MODULATOR PUMP FAILED JUST AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE "AS IS". I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, WHO HAD IT ALL DAY BEFORE DECIDING THAT THE PUMP WAS OUT, A $1600 REPAIR. I COULD NOT AFFORD THAT, NOR UNDERSTAND WHY IT HAD HAPPENED SO SOON, SO I FOUND A USED PUMP, AND PAYED TO HAVE IT INSTALLED. THE LIGHT WENT OUT AND IT WORKED FINE. TWO MONTHS LATER, THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND PAYED THEM AGAIN, AND AGAIN THEY SAID IT WAS THE PUMP. NOW THE LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY COMES ON AND GOES OFF. WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THESE THINGS, AND WHY DO THEY COST SO MUCH? THERE ARE SIMPLY TOO MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS NATURE TO IGNORE. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO STEP UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
MY TWO BIGGEST CONCERNS ARE THE DOOR PANELS AND PASSENGER AIR BAG. I SAW THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL AS MY CAR YESTERDAY AND THE SAME DOOR PANEL WAS MISSING ON THAT CAR ALSO. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THE DOOR PANEL SIMPLY BLEW OFF AS WE WERE GOING DOWN THE ROAD, POSING A THREAT FOR OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THE PASSENGER PANEL IS LOOSE. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LOOKS AS THOUGH IT IS ABOUT TO DEPLOY. THE CORNERS ARE TURNED UP. PEOPLE ARE AFRAID TO RIDE IN MY FRONT SEAT DUE TO THE DANGER THE AIR BAG COULD DEPLOY. THESE ARE BOTH SAFETY ISSUES. I HOPE YOU WILL CONSIDER A RECALL AND REPLACEMENT OF DOOR PARTS. THANK YOU.*AK
