Nhts campaign 99v189000 concerns a failure of windshield wiper linkages on 1993 plymouth voyagers leading to total loss of wiper function. This happened to my daughter today during a storm, forcing her to return home very slowly. No accident, no one hurt. (note that I am a registered professional engineer.) upon her return, I inspected and found that: 1. The wiper motor was running and could be audibly heard while the wipers sat motionless. 2. The two wipers were linked together and could be moved easily by hand. 3. The running wiper motor would not move the wipers. At that point I removed the 3 bolts holding the wiper motor in place and looked inside the wiper arm cavity. I found wiper drive arm to be detached from the rotating arm on the drive motor shaft. I have digital photographs available if you would like to see them. The reason for my report is this: the van which this happened to is a 1994 grand voyager, same body style as the 1993. How does one suggest that the 1994 model should also be recalled? Regards, jeff box [email protected].

As I was driving the vehicle I noticed that the airbag light on the dash came on. Than later on I also noticed that my rear window wiper blade was not working. I was told by a friend that it could be a wiring problem that the manufacturer should replace. Dt

While opening the tailgate on the vehicle, my daughter was preparing to load merchandise into the rear . While she was under the opening tailgate a support pivot sheared off at the body. The tailgate came down on her head. The support went to a fully extended position. It lodged between the rear interior panel and the rear body work. Once my daughter was out from under the tailgate, the tailgate closed. But because the support was fully extended it continued up through the interior of the van,put a hole in the interior roof panel and the end of the support abraided wiring above the roof panel causing the fuse for the air bags and the rear window wiper/washer to blow. As a result the dash mounted air bag warning light came on and of course the rear wiper was inop. I took the van into the dealer, because I read on your website of a recall pertaining to the liftgate supports. He informed me that my van was fixed once under the recall notice and there was nothing he could do for me. (he didn't even give me the time of day to look at what had happened!) I requested the phone # for chrysler consumer services, which he gave me. Chrysler told me to re-contact the dealership and that if upon inspection the dealer finds that the broken pivot is covered by the recall (#730) they would fix it. Otherwise I.m liable for the repairs. To date , I have rescheduled the appointment with the dealer.

Recall of the passive restraint airbag took to mason motor sales to have fixed they said they fixed it . Fuse bles three time before they did the recall and now it has blown again this fuse goes to the rear wiper and the airbag. If this is blown will the airbag still work? I am guessing that it wont.
