2002 CHRYSLER VOYAGER Complaints

VAN MADE RATTLING NOISE WHEN IN GEAR. VAN LATER MADE WHINING NOISE. DEALER REPLACED TORQUE CONVERTER AND FLEX PLATE. AFTER LOSING USE OF VAN FOR 4 DAYS, THE NEXT DAY, THE WHINING NOISE RECURRED. THE SECOND DAY AFTER I HAD IT BACK, IN ADDITION TO WHINING NOISE, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILED. IT ONLY MOVED THROUGH FIRST, SECOND, MAYBE THIRD GEAR. ENGINE REVS WHEN IT'S TRYING TO SHIFT GEARS. *JB

2002 CHRYSLER VOYAGER TIE ROD FELL OFF OF THE RACK AND PINION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. *MR THE TIE ROD FELL OFF AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. *SC

DT: WHEN BRAKING OR MAKING A TURN VEHICLE WILL LUNGE FORWARD WITH THE TRANSMISSION ,AND WHEN BACKING OUT OR DRIVEING FORWARD IT WILL LOSS POWER AT A HIGHER SPEED LIKE MERGING TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY. THE FIRST TIME REPLACED PARTS, AND SECOND TIME REPLACED TRANS AXLE. BUT STILL HAVING SAME PROBLEMS. DID SOME DIGNOSTIC ON IT THE THIRD TIME. VEHICLE IS IN THE SHOP AGAIN. *AK

CONSUMERS STATES: LIGHT FIXTURE IN THE BACK ON DRIVER'S SIDE HAS BEEN ON, HOWEVER,BOTH BACK TAIL LIGHTS KEEP FALLING OUT, HAVE TO KEEP PUSHING BACK IN.*AK

CHRYSLER VOYAGER 2002, FAILURE OF AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. *BF THE CONSUMERS WIFE LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHEN SHE SLID ON A SLICK ROAD SURFACE AND REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER STATED AFTER HAVING THE TIRES ROTATED ON A REGULAR SCHEDULE BASIS, IT WAS DISCOVERED THE TIRES WERE BALD WHICH CAUSED THE CONSUMER TO SKID SUCH FAR DISTANCE. PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT ALMOST EVERY MONTH THE TIRES WORE DOWN VERY QUICKLY AND CONSTANTLY NEEDED AIR. *JB

WHILE AT A STOP TRANSMISSION CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO JERK FORWARD. DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *AK

THE AIR BAG INDICATOR IS LIT ON MY DASH BOARD. THE PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM SHOULD BE PROBLEM FREE FOR THE LIFE OF THE AUTO. THE DEALER SAYS HE IS NOT SURE OF THE FAILURE WITH OUT DISMANTLING THE DASH BOARD AT GREAT COSTS. THIS IS LIKE A SEAT BELT FAILING.*AK

THE FRONT HEADLIGHT WAS FLASHING ON AND OFF WHILE PARKED IN A PARKING LOT (VEHICLE IS NOT EQUIP WITH AN ALARM SYSTEM). CONSUMER REMOVED THE NEGATIVE CABLE FROM THE BATTERY POST. THE CONSUMER RECONNECTED THE NEGATIVE CABLE WITHIN 5 MINUTES THE HEADLIGHT WENT OUT AND WORK NORMAL. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED. *JB *TC

RACK AND PINION FAILED AND WAS REPLACED WITH LESS THEN 60,000 MILES. THIS IS WAY TO EARLY AND NEEDS TO BE DETERMINED IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM OR AM I JUST UNLUCKY. THERE WAS NO INCIDENT JUST REPAIR EXPENSE SINCE IT WAS FIXED BEFORE COMPLETE FAILURE. *JB

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON FIRST TIME IN MARCH 2003. THE DEALER REPAIRED IT. ABOUT A YEAR LATER FEB 2004 THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THE DEALER SAID I NEED TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND POSSIBLY PAY FOR THE PART AND REPAIR SERVICE. HE DIDN'T THINK MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULD COVER IT. I ALSO EMAILED CHRYSLER AND THEY TALKED TO THE DEALER AND TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO FIX IT. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO REPAIR IT, NOR DO I THINK I AM RESPONSSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT! THAT'S SORT OF LIKE YOUR SEAT BELT NOT WORKING. SAFTEY ISSUES. SHOULDN'T WEAR OUT. WHY HASN'T CHRYSLER PUT OUT A SERVICE BULLITIN??? I'VE READ MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME PROBLEM. *AK
