Dealer service department stated this is normal wear cleveland area due to salt. Rotor warpage, extreme vibration and sway bar bushings failure at such low mileage represents dangerous design flaw which is impractical to compensate for with constant replacing of poorly designed and manufactured parts.

These defects cause actual loss of control problems on the road should be addressed urgently. *jb ***dimsii ivoq posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****742642

5/21/96, my son and I were impacted at left front of our 1996 ply voyager van by a 1987 chrysler. When I applied the brakes, they locked up, we slid slighthly to the right side -- the force from the impact was enough to shatter the transmission housing, the starter, damage the rack and pinion steering, and crumpled the front end in such a way that the passenger door could not be opened. The shoulder harnesses locked up, but neither air bag deployed. The car was alegedly looked at by chrysler engineers and it was determined that "the sensor had not been hit"... My son and I both sustained permanent injuries as a result of this accident. My question, with this speed, and this front end damage, why did the bags not deploy? I don't buy not hitting the sensor. I've read report after report identifying the sensor as deploying at 8mph... This accident was serious. Law enforcement at the scene said 5mph faster and there would have been a fatality.( dot number: )

Filed Sep 9, 1998 · Brakes, Visibility · OH

Noise emanating from the rear drums during stopping at times, inspected the brake system. Pads/shoes were worn out prematurely specifically the rear drum pad which were worn to the rivets at 35k. Because the rear brakes worn fast, the front rotors took over the majority of braking and subsequently warped the rotors. Since replacement, the noise has not occured again. Also windshield wipers began operating by themselves when driving. They would come on and wipe the windshield 1-3 times without ever touching the control switch. Control switch replaced and problem went away, started again sporadically.
