1993 Plymouth Grand Voyager brakes complaints
Page 2 of 4: complaints 11 to 40 of 84, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My ABS light came on when driving, within seconds, I had absolutely no brakes. The dealer fixed at no charge, although I had to pay for towing. Today has been 2 weeks since I've had the vehicle repaired. As I was traveling down the freeway with my 4 children, the ABS light came on again, and the brakes were gone again. When I purchased this vehicle in 1999, the ABS system was replaced on 3 seperate occasions for the exact same reason. Each time with the guarantee that it was fixed. What will it take to have this issue resolved? The death of my children and I? I purchased this mini van for the reason of safety due to the fact that I drive with my children quite a bit. I am very unhappy with this issue. To add to the dilemma, I am currently raising my children alone due to the fact that my husband is overseas at war. With the added stress of my husband being away, I really feel the burden with my mini van is extemely uncalled for. I can no longer do the simple tasks of going to the store without feeling fear that my vehicle will all of a sudden not stop. I am just trying to get by in a safe manner while my husband is away. And this expensive vehicle made by chrysler/plymouth has failed to do this for me. Your immediate response is expected!
Air conditioner quit working, problem is evaporator under dash. Repair to be $1200 estimated. Fuel pump failed. Paint began peeling at 40,000 miles. Just finished repainting whole vehicle at own expense. Both front seatbelts would not unroll and were replaced. Transmission failed at 68,000 miles, dealer repaired at no charge. Abs no longer works. Wheels lock up when hard braking.
Total ABS failure twice within three week period. Dealer replaced pump motor under recall warranty for first failure, diagnosed dual function pressure switch for second failure. Dealer and manufacturer refuses to warrant pressure switch as part of ABS. Pressure switch has been replaced at 40,400 miles on 3/25/97, replaced again at 68,327 miles on 5/29/01. Current instance is third failure of switch. On going ABS failures over life of car.

I have a 1993 plymouth grand voyager. The ABS pump and motor were replaced (under warranty) with a re-manufactured unit on 11/05/01 when the vehicle mileage was 104,691. The pump just failed again, and was replaced with another re-manufactured unit. The vehicle mileage is now 115,381. I am concerned that chrysler is install poor quality repair parts under the warranty.
Driver had difficulty pressing the brake pedal. Dealer found that the vehicle was within the remedy scope for recal 96v099000, and made the appropriate repairs. After the repairs, brake lights illuminated, and the brake pedal was still hard to push.
The ABS light and the park light illuminated. Also, the brake pedal must be depressed all the way to the floor to get the vehicle to stop. The vehicle was not in the remedy scope for recall# 96v099000 subject: brakes:hydraulic: anti-skid system; although the vehicle experienced the same symptoms as the vehicles affected in that recall. *ak *ts
Two complete ABS brake failures within 3 weeks. Continuous ABS brake problems over the life of the vehicle. Recall completed. Problems persist.
I had trouble with my anti-lock brakes on a 1993 plymouth grand voyager. I downloaded the information about the recall and made an appointment with the dealer. On the day of the appointment they had a representative of chrysler there who stated, even though there was a recall, our particular VIN number was not included. They also stated they would have to charge us to fix a computer chip that was not working to test the braking system. This vehicle had over 100,000 thousand miles so we knew not all of the recall would apply, but certain components had a lifetime replacement warranty. Because of the up front charges we withdrew the vehicle from the dealer and sent it to an independent garage, who is having trouble finding the used parts. The dealer said the info. On this website are just summaries and not always correct for the particular vehicle.
While traveling on the highway and without prior warning the ABS braking light appeared on the dashboard.
While driving and without warning brakes failed,causing extended stopping distance. Dealer notified.
Consumer brought vehicle in for recall repairs, 96v099. Mechanic informed consumer that the previous owner took care of the recall and that the problem consumer was experiencing was a sensor, which was not recall related. Consumer was charged for diagnostic testing and feels this is an error since no testing was authorized. Consumer requests reimbursement.
Consumer states brake pedal is hard and stiff and the ABS and brake light stays on. Dealer found problem with hydraulic control unit which is under recall (96v099000). However, authorized dealership would not honor recall. Consumer had to take vehicle to another authorized dealership that was 200 miles round trip.
Vehicle was repaired under recall 96 v 099 000. Since repair of vehicle brakes have failed four times, one of which resulted in a collision. When brakes were applied pedal became hard. Vehicle was serviced at fresno chrysler, in fresno ca 559‑225‑2100.

Vehicle experiencing problem with ABS and brake lights remaining on when applying brakes. Vehicle would not stop properly, needed to apply brakes extra hard to get vehicle to stop. Dealer notified. Please feel free to provide any further details on this matter.
We have had chronic problems with ABS system failure over the life of the vehicle. I understood plymouth was supposed to guarantee the ABS system for 100,000 miles and the pump/accumulator/master cylinder for the life of the vehicle. This is certainly not a reliably safe system. The dealer info I gave was the dealer we purchased the vehicle from. Our current dealer is buzz leonard in panama city, florida 32405.
We have reported a number of times to 3 dealers that we are getting warning lights on the ABS system. Some have said there is no issue, the brakes will still work. The latest dealer says it is undrivable due to safety risk.
Recall 96v099000. Dealer has repaired vehicle two times under recall, and problem has reoccurred several times.
Consumer has experienced numerous problems with leakage of master brake cylinder fluid. The problem has been on going since september of 98. The master clylinder brake cap was replaced and the system has been judged as ok by the dealership under recall 96v099000 but the problem continues.
While driving ABS brake light will come on unexpectedly, and brakes pedal will be hard, even at times had to step on brakes with both feet.
I have had trouble with the ABS since I bought the car. The system has been replaced 3 times to date and is now beginning to fail once again. I have had numersous repairs to the A/C system. Thew first was in 1996 ($472). The second in 1998 ($850). The third also in 1998 ($286). The fourth again in 1998 ($673). The fifth in 1999 ($178). The sixth in 2000 ($688). So, to date, I have spent over $3000.00 having the A/C repaired on this vehicle. The frequency of repairs and the amount paid for these repairs is unacceptable and suggests that there is a major problem with this component that should be the responsibility of the manufacturer. To summarize, I have had frequent and excessive problems with both the ABS and A/C systems. Thank you for you attention.
Ther\e was a manufacturer's recall 05685184 on the anti-lock brake system . Consumer was traveling about 25 to 30mph on the highway, she applied brakes, the pedal was very hard, and brakes failed.
