About 5-6 weeks ago, the air bag warning light on the dashboard display went on, and it has been on continuously since then. 2 weeks ago we noticed that the cruise control wasn't working, and in the past week, the horn stopped working. We saw a notice of recall in the business section of the washington post, but we did not receive anything from daimler-chrysler. We contacted darcars of silver spring, md, and they told us that there was no recall for our model and year, and that the repair would cost about $225-$250. Today, we did an internet search and learned of the widespread nature of the problem, and of daimler-chrysler's refusal to reimburse owners of vehicles such as ours for this acknowledged failure of a critical part. We do not have working air bags, horn or cruise control, and we urge you to expedite your investigation of this defect and widen the recall, requiring the manufacturer to reimburse us. Dt

This van was purchased off lease with 18000 miles and less than 1 year old. After 1 year the vehicle was out of warranty due to mileage (36000). The wipers would go on and off at will. The dealer replaced the battery for $100.00. The problem continued and eventually lights started to turn on in the interior of the vehicle on their own. The cruise control worked intermittantly. The air bag light came on intermittantly. The body control module was replaced. We didn't leave the dealership and the problem started again. The dealer ordered another body control module. It has been 3 and one half years and now the problems are starting again. The vehicle has stalled on several occassions. The horn does not work. The cruise control does not work. The air bag light is on continuously now. We do not have the $1000 dollars for replacement of the air bag. We understand that there are others with this same problem. Is the federal safety agency going to make chrystler right these electrical problems. I have read about engine fires due to electrical shorts. It certainly appears that we are not the only ones experiencing electrical problems with our minivan.
