OUR VAN KEEPS RUNNING OUT OF OIL COMPLETELY BEFORE OIL CHANGE IS DUE, DEALER HAS ALREADY REPLACED OIL PAN AND REAR MAIN SEAL. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS AND THEY ARE SAYING THE REAR MAIN SEAL AGAIN. DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE BECAUSE THERE IS NO OIL IN PARKING SPOT OR UNDER VEHICLE NEAR REAR MAIN SEAL. ONLINE MANY PEOPLE REPORT THAT IT IS A ENGINE PROBLEM AND THAT IT IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE MOTOR... SO WHY ARE PEOPLE HAVING TO PAY FOR REPAIRS WHEN THIS MOTOR SHOULD BE RECALLED. IT IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP NOW BEING REPAIRED OR REPLACING REAR MAIN SEAL AGAIN.

WHILE DRIVING THE WIPERS, HEADLIGHTS, AND DASHBOARD STARTED OPERATING CRAZY. IT WOULD OCCUR EVERY 30 SECONDS AND WOULD NOT STOP. THE ONLY SOLUTION (TEMPORARY) WAS TO REMOVE THE FUSE ASSOCIATED WITH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THIS CAUSED THE CRAZINESS TO STOP, BUT NOW I LOST ALL ABILITY TO OPERATE ANY FUNCTIONS ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THE FUSE WAS TESTED AND IT IS WORKING JUST FINE. WHILE THIS WAS NOT AN IMMEDIATE DANGER, IT WAS STILL SCARY HAVING THIS HAPPEN TO ME WHILE DRIVING WITH MY YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE CAR. WE ARE UNABLE TO DISCOVER A PERMANENT SOLUTION. AFTER REVIEW, IT APPEARS WE ARE DIFFIDENTLY NOT ALONE. PLEASE FIGURE THIS OUT!

MY VAN WAS BOUGHT NEW BY ME AND HAS AROUND 51,111 MILES ON IT. ABOUT A MONTH AGO TRANSMISSION STARTED LEAKING OUT OF IT. THE TRANSMISSION IS COMPLETELY SEALED, NO WAY TO CHECK IT'S LEVEL OR CHANGE TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE OLD 1/4 INCH TUBE THAT USUALLY WOULD HOLD THE DIP STICK IS MUCH SHORTER (ABOUT A FOOT) THAN A NORMAL TRANSMISSION DIP STICK. IT TOOK ME AWHILE TO FIND IT. IT IS ONE OF TWO TRANSMISSION LINES GOING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AND GOING TO THE RADIATOR AND THE LEAK IS IN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE WHERE YOU CAN'T GET TO IT WITHOUT DROPPING THE TRANSMISSION... DODGE HAS A 100,000 WARRANTY ON THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE BUT THIS LINE IS OUTSIDE THE TRANSMISSION SO THEY CLAIM IT'S NOT PART OF THEIR WARRANTY... REGARDLESS THE TUBING THEY USE HAS TO BE DEFECTIVE BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE HAVE DRIVEN 100,000'S MILES WITHOUT HAVING THIS NON-MOVING PART TO FAIL. I HAVE THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT THEY CLAIM IT'S NOT COVERED. SO HOW DOES IT GET REPORTED. I HAD TO PAY OVER $500 FOR THE WIRING HARNESS IN MY AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOORS THAT OBVIOUSLY THE LOWER ARM ON THE DOOR KEPT RUBBING AND RUBBING UNTIL IT FRAYED THE PLASTIC COVERING CAUSING MY WIRING HARNESS TO BREAK BUT WHEN I BOUGHT IT IN THEIR WAS NO RECALL YET SO I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR MYSELF AND THEN AROUND 6 MONTHS LATER I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR WHICH I HAVEN'T GOT I.
