1992 DODGE Grand Caravan

funny feel on right turns , not sure of problempaint peeling on top and sides

Complete brake hydrolics failue. Manufacturer (or local dealer) will not cover costs, estimated at $1500 plus tax. Repair parts very expensive and not available through salvage channels.According to the Center\’s fact sheet on the Grand Caravan, the system was covered by a major recall, which the manufacturer denies.Minivan was purchased used, and ABS light is on, No information on first manifestation of failue. Repairs have not yet been done because current owner simply has no funds for it now, and cost of repair is more than what was paid for the used vehicle ($1400).

BAD PAINT Its peeling flakeing the wood grain too faidingBAD TRANS I just paid a dealership over 2 grand for a new one warranteed for only 3 years or 36,000 miles.BAD POWER WINDOWS cable broke=over $400.= me gettingscrewdBAD LUG NUTS little metal caps over lugnuts come off and then tire tool dosent fit so you end up at the dealership getting them cut off.KEEPS STALLINGHEADLINER FALLING DOWNHEADLIGHTS ARE TOTALLY YELLOW at night you cant see more than 50 feet on low beams so you have to have high beams on just to get low beam quality.BREAKS new rotors, mastercillender, hardwear, drums, shoes, pads, fluid, mastercillender caps, weel cillenders,= over $500. to the dealer and me and my fam stranded on the roadside for 4 houresGETTING RECALLED PARTS FITTED only takes an act of congress and about three days with out a car unless they give you there "LOANER" loaner=car no one would but twelve years ago.

My van’s brakes stopped working so I took it to the local dealership to see if it was due to the ABS failure which there was a recall on. the dealership told me that it replaced the Pump motor and activator piston as well as the ABS relay. The charged me labor although I was told the parts were under lifetime warranty. Less than a year later I was having the same problem. They told me that if it was the ABS relay that I would have to pay for another. I do not feel like I should have to pay for something that there is an obvious problem on. If they replaced the parts that were under warranty, then I should not be having the same problem less than a year later.

After an extensive investigation and analysis, chrysler has identified the defect as a fatigue failure, origination in the heat affected region of the "projection welds" of the steering wheel "hub" to steering wheel "armature" attachment.the hub is the portion of the steering wheel assembly that connects it to the steering column shaft and is attached to the underside of the steering wheel assembly by 4 welds.if cracks develop in the heat affected region of the welds and propagate through the steering wheel armature to each of the welds, the steering wheel can separate from the hub.this is a slow progressive failure which normally occurs at high mileage.in some cases complainants have reported a looseness or wobbling of the steering wheel prior to separation.to remedy this defect, chrysler will inspect the steering wheels of the affected vehicles for cracks in the hub area.if any cracks are found, the steering wheel will be replaced.all other vehicles will have reinforcing plates installed which would prevent a steering wheel separation should cracking occur.

Liftgate latches in the subject vehicles have failed in low and moderate speed impacts resulting in occupant ejections, injuries, and fatalities.there are two failure modes associated with latch failure: fork bolt-detent lever bypass, and inertial unlatching.nhtsa analyses of chrysler and peer minivans took the form of static and dynamic crash testing, engineering evaluations, complaint and field analyses, and real world data analyses.a technical report discussing these analyses can be found in the engineering analysis technical report in the public viewing file.chrysler has advised nhtsa that it will conduct a campaign to replace the latches on all the subject vehicles.the chrysler campaign will consist of notification letters to all owners; free replacement of all latches with stronger, safer latches regardless of the age of the minivans; national advertising to promote customer awareness of the campaign; quarterly reports regarding campaign completion rates; as well as additional measures to ensure a high completion rate, above and beyond the actions that normally would be taken in a formal safety recall.these include follow up written and telephonic notifications to owners who do not bring their vehicles in for corrective action.nhtsa firmly believes that the crash performance of the latches on these minivans raises serious safety concerns, and that the campaign addresses these concerns.the chrysler corrective action will increase the strength of the liftgate latches and decrease the potential for inertial unlatching, thereby reducing the risk of crash-related openings of the liftgate and possible occupant ejection through the liftgate opening.owners of chrysler minivans will get a stronger, safer latch free of charge at the earliest possible time, without the need for further technical investigation and complex and time-consuming litigation with an uncertain outcome.based on the above, odi is closing this investigation.
