1999 Plymouth Voyager engine complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 52, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Vehicle not wanting to switch gears. It goes very slow until finally it switches over. The oil was leaking out of the van. The oil leak was repaired. As for the transmission, it all started off when it would slow by itself. Then it gradually got worse. On 02-12-03 I had taken it in to get checked for a oil leak and the problem with the gears not shifting. I was told I needed transmission service, to replace the valve cover gasket, and to replace the transmission output shaft seal. I did the repair that was supposed to fix the problem but of course it didn't. I took it in to the dealer and they found nothing wrong with the gears. But said a fuel injection cleaning, throttle body cleaning, and a tune up would fix the problem. This was done on march 26, 2003. They replaced the throttle body gasket and spark plugs. They did find a leak in the head gasket. They had to replace cylinder head gasket, water pump and timing belt. In november of 2000 the front pump seal was leaking, pan gasket leaking, side cover leaking, differential cover leaking, and rear main oil seal leaking. They removed the transaxle, removed and replaced the rear main seal. A few months ago the engine light started coming on when gears wouldn't shift. And it got worse everyday. Now the engine light is on all the time. I took it into aamco on 04-23-2004 to get it checked out. They said it wasn't safe to drive so they had to tow it to their station. It passed all the equipment testing and was told it may just be the spark plugs. So I replaced the spark plugs that day. It ran well for a little while. Then it started again. I had to stop driving my vehicle because it is a potential danger to my family. It would go very very slow when I was trying to cross the road. And with on coming vehicles on both sides we could easily get into a major collision. I have tried to talk to the chrysler but they refused to help me. And at this point I still don't know what is wrong with it.

$5,975.00 - in the last 16 months the 1999 plymouth voyager van I purchased at courtesy chrysler has been in the shop over 18 times, often for the same problems. I have had to buy 6 new times and 3 new batteries. On average, I have added between 3 and 4 quarts of oil every month and new coolant every 3 months (it over heats a lot). I have suffered verbal and mental abuse from the personnel at courtesy chrysler to the point where I had to jump out of my moving van as my personal service advisor was berating me and told me that there was nothing wrong with my van, the brakes, the engine, etc., during a test drive. When I opened the door to jump out he stepped on the brakes...and they did not work! Mind you, they had my vehicle in their shop for the last two days to repair the brakes and my personal service advisor kept saying that the van was fine! After giving me a brand new 2002 chrysler minivan, they said that my van would be ready the next afternoon for pick-up and if there were any problems, they would contact me.
Transmission failed twice, now has leak on left side head gasket.
