REVERSE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. TOLD BY 2 MECHANICS THAT CHRYSLER HAD REPAIRED VIA RECALL OR LETTERS IN PAST. I WAS TOLD THIS IS A ROUTINE PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE COVERED.

I DRIVE IT TO THE NEAREST SHOP TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT , THEY CAME IN AND TOLD ME I'M LUCKY TO HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR AS ( THE REAR CHASSIS HAS BROKE! ) THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED JUST LIKE FORD MOTOR COMPANY DID WITH THEIR VANS !!! I HAVE HEARD ABOUT OTHER VOYAGER VANS HAVING THIS ISSUE IN SALT BELT STATES .
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 CHRYSLER VOYAGER. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE OVER 50 MPH. THE VEHICLE FELT AS IF IT WOULD STALL.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 217,000.

THE FAILURE HAS NOT REPAIRED, EVEN THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE HORN ARE INOPERATIVE. I CAN NO LONGER TAKE THE VEHICLE. I CALLED THE CHRYSLER DEALER IN REGION TO TALK HIM ABOUT IT. HE TOLD ME THAT THIS FAILURE, WITHOUT ANY OTHER FAILURE WILL BE CHARGED AROUND 300-350 EUROS BECAUSE MY CAR IS NO LONGER ON SAFETY WARRANTY AND IT IS ALSO NOT AFFECTED BY THE RECALL OF THE CHRYSLER VOYAGER FOR THOSE SAME FAILURES. THE CHARGE IS VERY EXPENSIVE FOR ME. IT IS THEN I TRY TO FIND HELP ON INTERNET THAT I CAME ACROSS YOUR WEBSITE. THAT IS MY ENTIRE PROBLEM. THREE MAJOR PROBLEMS: 1 - AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED PERMANENTLY 2 - SPEED CONTROL (CRUISE CONTROL) NON FUNCTIONAL 3 - HORN INOPERATIVE

RECENTLY I NOTICED THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS "SPONGY"- I INSPECTED THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND FOUND A STEEL PORTION OF LEFT REAR BRAKE LINE ASSEMBLY RUSTED AND LEAKING. THE LINE FELL APART COMPLETELY DURING REMOVAL. THE LINE ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED. I DO HAVE THE OLD LINE ASSEMBLY FOR INSPECTION. THIS VEHICLE HAS BRAKES THAT WEAR OUT MORE FREQUENTLY THAN ANY OTHER VEHICLE I'VE EVER OWNED. I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKES TWICE AND THE REAR BRAKES AND WHEEL CYLINDERS IN LESS THAN 60,000 MILES. WHEN I TRY TO OBTAIN REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THE FRONT BRAKE SYSTEM I INVARIABLY RECEIVE THE WRONG PARTS- I HAVE TO GET PARTS LISTED FOR A 4 CYL. VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH MINE IS A V-6. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL NAME-BRAND PARTS MANUFACTURERS AND ALL HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE WAS ASSEMBLED AT THE FACTORY WITH THE WRONG FRONT BRAKE SYSTEM WHICH IS UNDERRATED AND RESULTS IN PREMATURE WEAR. I HAVE ALSO, ON A PREVIOUS OCCASION, HAD AN ISSUE WITH AN "ABS" LIGHT AND "BRAKE" LIGHT COMING ON- EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. AT THAT TIME THERE WERE NO LEAKS OR OTHER FAULTS TO CAUSE THE WARNING LIGHTS. I WAS FORCED TO PAY THE DEALER TO "RE-FLASH" THE COMPUTER WHICH WAS IMPROPERLY PROGRAMMED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER HAD A TSB FOR THIS CONDITION AND I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN A CHARGE TO CORRECT A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD SEVERAL BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEMS WHICH SHOULD NOT BE OCCURRING ON A VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 60,000 MILES! *TR

ON THE EVENING OF NOV 19, 2005, THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2003 CHRYSLER VOYAGER MINIVAN FLICKERED ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING HOME. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN ON THE EVENING OF NOV 20, 2005. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO MY MECHANIC ON NOV 21, 2005, AND THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM NOR COULD THEY IDENTIFY THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. I DROVE THE CAR FOR ABOUT A MONTH WITHOUT A REPEAT INCIDENT, BUT LAST WEEK (AROUND FOURTH WEEK IN DEC) THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. I PLAN TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALER NEXT WEEK. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THERE IS AN ONGOING GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATION INTO THIS PROBLEM WITH 2001 AND 2002 MODEL YEAR CHRYSLER MINIVANS, AND I WANT TO GO ON RECORD AS EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM WITH A 2003 MODEL YEAR MINIVAN. I MAY BE SIGNIFICANT THAT I PURCHASED MY 2003 MINIVAN IN NOV, 2002, VERY EARLY IN THE 2003 MODEL YEAR. *NM
