1998 Plymouth Voyager body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 20 of 20, newest first, as owners wrote them.
While having some work done on our 1998 plymouth voyager, the mechanic noticed that the area at the top of the strut and spring connected under the hood has both corrosion and perferation. It covers about one-third of the strut tower. I called a dealer and was told that this rust-through was not covered under their warrenty. I was also told that this condition is potentially dangeropus if the strut and spring rust completely through. The rest of the body is rust free. I also found that in 2002 a service bulletin 23-044-02 dated october 14, 2002 covered this problem. Since this is a major safety and cost issue for my family, I would like to know if there is anything I can do to get chrisler to fix the problem?
A/c evaporater no good. They replaced them up to 1997. Rear latch has been replaced twice & it does not work again. Hole rusting from the inside out just behind driver sliding door.
The interior light did not come on. The drivers side window failed intermittently. The dash lights flickered. Occasionally the horn would fail. Metal fragment cut through the power steering and caused noise when steering. The door handle didn't open smoothly. The dealer replaced front struts and rear shock absorbers. Also, replaced leaking engine valve cover gasket, engine belt and tensioner. . *ak
While driving on state route and without warning, sliding door began to rattle, resulting in door unlatching from top hinges. *ak the screws bolting it to the top latch came out. Consumer had to put the screw back in.
No one was hurt in the accident when I hit a piece of metal in the road. The object tore off a body frame member and then punctured the plastic fuel tank. Gas was leaking everywhere. I can not believe that anyone would place a plastic fuel tank directly in the path of a front wheel drive vehicle. The front wheels being drive wheels tend to propel objects back at the tanks. Conversations with mechanics have informed me that over time the tank will eventually start to leak from the stones that will be thrown back from the fromt wheel. I recentlly read in the local paper where a ford minivan with a plastic fuel tank devloped a lead while traveling on a local road and had to be towed. It is even ore amazing to me that these systems that are designed to fail and will impact the environment in a negative way are legal. If the car markers are going to use plastic fuel tanks they should not be located in a direct path behind a wheel and they should have a metal shield.
All automatic doors lock when engine is started. Supposed to lock when vehicle reaches 16 MPH. This problem only happens 50% of the time. Inconvenience more than anything ! !
Gas tank makes thud noise when accelerating from stopped position.
Complete design failure resulting in criticle saftey condition.
The structure on which driver's side sits is half an inch lower than the passenger's side. Dealer has seen, no solution has been found.
