While driving 30 MPH or more the ABS and the "check engine" lights illuminated simultaneously. The condition caused the instrument gauges and the power door locks to be inoperative. The vehicle has been to the dealer on three separate occasions. They replaced three difference sensors and a module and the problem keeps recurring. *jb

At any givin time, the interior lights will flash on and off, the door locks will lock and unlock, the interior bell dings. They all do this together. Nothing seems to set it off.

The printed circuit board that controls the instrument cluster has failed twice and had to be replaced. The mechanic admitted that this happens frequently with my vehicle and I can expect it to fail agian. There is an electrical problem that the dealership says does not exsist, yet my car constantly fails to operate properly and many electrical faults occur regularly. The headlights stop working, the radio cuts out, the instrument panel goes out, the door locks wont work, the hazzard flashers come on & will not shut off. The dealer insists that there is nothing wrong, yet the problems continue to plauge my vehicle.

We just purchased the preowned van on april 8, 2003 it has 41600 miles on it one time owner previously 1. Paint is chipping off of the driver side door handle. The dealer is going to get us touch up paint to fix. 2. The power steering return hose to the power steering reservoir was cut when we looked at it. The dealer had the mechanic look at it and thought maybe the hose got caught in the fan belt and cut it. The dealer repaired it and said no other damage was done. This time they tide down the hose away from the belt.

While driving down the interstate doing about 70 MPH I heard a loud noise. Looked at speedometer and it registered 0. I had no power. Barely managed to get van off the road. Got out and looked under it, there was transmission fluid everywhere. Had it checked out by personal mechanic. He then told me that there have been numerous complaints about this year of plymouth grand voyagers. I only have 86,000 miles on it. Also the sliding door locks have failed, windshield washers have failed, A/C has failed, not to mention the airbag light, fuel line and all of the numerous other recalls it has had on it.
