Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 22 of 22, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Tensioner pulley for serpentine belt sheared off engine, causing complete loss of steering control. Vehicle had to be towed, no accident. This is the second tensioner to break on this vehicle since new. Trans axle has been repaired 8 times since new for slamming into gear on shifts. Transaxel finally went into limp along mode and had to be replaced with a new factory rebuilt unit at a cost of $1486.88 to me.
Transmission failed causing vibration.
The casting on the head that holds the rocker assembly broke. This appears to be a design flaw due to pattern failure. My mechanic reported he has seen 4 instances of this failure on dodge vans since mine was diagnosed and repaired. He also noted that chrysler corp. Is now using studs instead of bolts to hold rockers.
