My transmission has gone out on my vehicle and when it was in the repair shop there where two other vehicle the same year make and model with the same transmission problems not to mention one of my sisters co-workers with the same vehicle just had hers fixed is there any way you can look into this I do feel it would be a safety recall beings if my children where in the vehicle and it broke down on the side of the road and transmissions have been know to start on fire if they start too go out also when this happened I was at a stop light at a busy intersection and caused a big traffic jams do to my vehicle not shifting.
Email from constituent re his concerns about the quality of chrysler minivans, the transmission problem he has with his 2000 plymouth grand voyager; feels there should be a recall. *nj the cosnumer noticed transmission fluid on the ground. The mechanic informed the consumer there was a pin a chrysler transmission that comes loose. They also said the pin in the linkage for the differential shoots out very fast and ruins everything in its path.
Dt*: the contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the vehicle would not respond when the accelerator was depressed. The vehicle was towed to an independent repair shop, who determined the transmission and catalytic converter need to be replaced.
While shifting gears transmission shifted from second gear to over drive at the same time on its own. Consumer was able to drive vehicle to the dealer for inspection, and mechanic informed determined that the solenoid switch needed to be replaced due to worn parts. The faulty solenoid switch caused damage to the transmission control computer.
10/30/03 knocking noise coming from engine. Took to firestone in december after it got extremely loud. Was informed to go to dealer as they could not find the issue. 12/10/03 chrysler replaced flywheel. Was informed that the delay in repairs was because 2 other replacement flywheels had cracked in the same fashon. I found no recalls for this issue. I do not have the old flywheel nor did I see the damaged one.
The car was driving fine all along. Then in the everning when I started to drive, I noticed the transmission can't shift up and the speedometer is gone, and the transmission warning light turns on. Dealer called back and wanted to charge $150 for diagnostic service because they claimed to have 3 problems. Obviously this is all related so trying to rack up on diagnostic is noticed. Then they reported that the problem was a malfunction transmission control module which also shorted out the input and output speed sensors. The total repair bill is $600. And the car has only 52k miles. Spoke to chrsyler customer assistance. They do not admit it is a component or design defect. And they will not reimburst or pay for the repair.
Consumer stated that vehicle can be put in any gear without stepping on the brakes first. Toddler was able to put the vehicle in gear while standing on the seat. Consumer called chrysler, and was told that this was a special feature of this particular vehicle has, and it will not be changed or recalled.
The vehicle's roll pin failed which caused the vehicle to jerk back and forth like it has been thrown in park. Dealer notified.
From day one of getting this van I have had problems with repairs the last straw happened on 03/11/03 . My transmission hoses cracked and lost all the transmission fluid on a 2000 chrysler grand voyager se. I noticed a problem last year but repair shop said they didn't see the problem. Now I have to pay $$$$ to have it fixed and other repairs at that facility were missed to.
