The plastic handle on top of the dipstick breaks off easily, this allows the dipstick to remain in the retaining tube, where it could vibrate loose and drop into the engine, which would cause major damage to the engine.

Front end struts wre replaced after reporting clunking noise in front end when car was placed in reverse. One year later, while enroute from pennsylvania to washington on vacation, the steering broke when backing out of a parking space in an underground parking lot in south bend, in. Rack and pinion was repaired by dealership in south bend. Started to smell gas fumes in vehicle while driving to washington. Tried to get repairs in south dakota but was unable to find a dealership who would repair it. Located dealership in pasco, washinton torepair the fuel line which was not connected properly after rack repair, as I was told by dealer. Battery exploded while in parking lot at local mall. Air conditioner started emitting musty smell. Had air conditioner charged twice and it still doesnt seem to hold a charge. Car would not start on 12/3/1999. Thinking it was the battery, tried to jump the car but was told by mechanic that it sounded like it might be the timing belt. Now I find the water pump leaked which may have caused a blown gasket. Mechanic reports little compression in three cylinders and 1500.00 estimate for repair.
No summary.
Braking system malfunctioned due to brake lining being 'too thin" which caused brakes to become spongy, and caused extended stopping distance which may have resulted in a crash. Also a fire started in the motor. Please provide further information.
Caused timing belt to melt / dealer had 3 others lined up!!!
Water pump failed causing vehicle to overheat which resulted in the failure of two head gaskets, timing belt,antifreeze over fill bottle to melt and the vehicle to stop.
Due to defective water pump vehicle seized, losing all power steering control which almost caused an accident. Dealer said it was a common problem with the water pump. Please provide further information.
We took the car to the dealer to have a transmission line leak fixed (replacement of the line). We alos smelled a gasoline smell when starting the car in the morning. The dealer informed us that there was also a fuel leak in a line on the engine. The delaer told us that the line needed to be replaced or it could cause a fire. We let them have the vehicle and they said it would be fixed in a week. Three weeks later we were still without the car; the delaer told us that chrysler was not supplying the original factory part for replacement because the part was apparently being redesigned. We asked why an original factory part could not be installed; they said it could, but that the part might not work and we might risk a fire. Chrysler did not charge for the part, but we were out of us of the car for about 3 weeks.
Oil dip stick handle melted, causing the oil dip stick to stay in the oil pan and caused damages. Please provide further information.
