When starting vehicle gas blows out of a hose onto tailpipe, and if this gets too hot it could cause a fire.
Cooling fan was operating erratically due to foreign materials, leaves, becoming trapped in engine compartment which could eventually cause engine overheating. *ak please be advised that mechanic has seen more than 10 mini vans (plymouth-voyagers) with similiar defects.
Engine head gaskets blewout 3 times, and engine heads cracked twice. Dealer claimed defect was due to radiator. *ak consumer first had problem with vechile leaking oil, dealer replaced the valve cover and head gasket, vehicle leaked again and dealer replaced the front cam and crankseal, vehicle leaked oil a third time and dealer replaced cam seal and pcv valve, dealer later found cracked cylinder head and scored piston and replaced both, vehicle then began to overheat, dealer stated it needed a new thermostat, however it overheated again and the cylinder head had cracked again, later dealer stated that the radiator was the source of the problem, that it was causing the engine to overheat and it caused cylinder head to crack, consumer stated that the temperature gauge never indicated any overheating except for the 2 times mentioned. Left axle replaced due to vibration, left axle shaft. Brake ligh ton, parking brake was sticking. Dealer replaced torque converter and leaking front pump in the transmission. Rotors were turned and dealer replaced brake pads due to brake wear. New dashboard installed. Repairs to airbag.
At mileage 57481 broken timing belt. Dealer inspected the vehicle and found that a broken head bolt lodged between the cam shaft and head, which caused timing belt to break. R-r cyl head to replace broken camshaft, reassembled with new gaskets and timing gear. Dealer refused to cover--bolt not under warranty!
When driving vehicle will shut off without prior noise. Consumer received a recall notices 818 and 730 from the dealership.
Overheating reported; original dealer replaced relay switch; upon request to examine head gasket problem, confirmed no problem. Second dealership examined car and said head gasket was blown -- $2000 repair. Same dealer advised pattern of head gasket problems in these models. Original dealer subsequently examined vehicle and denied problem. After further driving, problem recurred only now confirming head gasket. Cost of repair exceeds book value of vehicle, but one dealer already acknowledged pattern of problem. It seems, therefore, manufacturer should be responsible. Decision to repair must be immediate because of cost.
Squeaking noise heard in the right front of the vehicle.

In last two weeks alone van has stalled 5 times. Van is constantly in the shop for stalling. The problem is very intermittent but seems to be more affected by adverse weather. When it rains or snows or there is high humidity I am very concerned that my van will stall. The problem can not be duplicated while it is in the shop. It has even been hosed down to try to get the proper wet conditions that seem to make it stall. I have counted a minimum of 38 reports on your website (listed under different categories, I.e., engine, defroster, brakes, other parts) so I assume this is a major concern. I have stalled on the highway, have stalled while turning right (in front of oncoming traffic) and in most cases it is while I am transportating children, which is why most people purchase a mini-van....to transport children. It is a very uncomfortable situation when you are afraid to drive your vehicle. Please advise what was done to correct the problem with the 38 complaints that I have read on your website. I will gladly provide the odi id #'s. Feel free to contact me at home. Also please be advised that my local dealership has not reported any problems of this nature ??!! I have been dealing with the same service station since I moved to town (14 yrs ago) which is why I continue to go there, I am confortable dealing with same service station.

Intermittently while driving for extended period of time and coming to a stop, vehicle will stall unexpectedly which may cause a crash. The vehicle will continue to stall about 4 times, and then it won't happen for a while. Please provide further information and VIN#.
Starting in early 1996 the van started to stall when slowing to a stop. This did not occur every time I stopped, and it was very unpredictable as to when it would happen. The dealership in ft. Walton beach couldn't find a problem, but cleaned the fuel injectors and throttle body to try to see if that was the problem. It seemed to help, but a few weeks later the problem resurfaced. Over the last three months I have had this problem come and go with no solution in sight. I moved to california last year and the dealership in lancaster could not find a solution. Yesterday I found a secret service bulletin # 18-16-96 which address this very problem. The fault is with the hardened crankshaft position sensor.
While sitting in traffic vehicle overheated due to radiator fan motor assembly breaking away from the motor.
Engine pistons broke loose and flew against the spark plugs from within the engine. Believed this condition is a defect because of mileage of 89,000. Dealer/mfr. Was not contact at this time.
While driving for a long period of time the vehicle will stall unexpectedly which almost caused an accident. Been to dealer numerous times. Dealer replaced fuel filter/throttle filter and transmission, etc. Dealer cannot determine problem. Please provide details.
Transmission failed.
Vehicle kept on stalling out. It would happen intermittently. Whenever air conditioner on or weather is rainy, vehicle stalled out. Had to shift into neutral & restart vehicle. Took vehicle to dealer & mechanic could not locate the problem of stalling.
While traveling the vehicle stalls without indications. After 10-15 minutes the vehicle restarted without any indications. Please provide further details.
Front motor mount- exhaust doughnut gasket is defective. The vehicle makes a loud cluncking noise at about 10mph, and any acceleration sounds like a turbo charge. Dealer cannot duplicate the problem.
