1994 EAGLE VISION Complaints

AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE MY FRONT RIGHT TRANSMISSION HALF-SHAFT PULLED OUT FROM THE TRANSAXLE. *AK

RECALL 98V-184 WAS PERFORMED 0N 16-FEB-99, THE FUEL RAIL BEGAN TO LEAK FUEL AGAIN ON 27-SEP-00, THE CONSUMER FEELS THE REPAIR WAS NOT BONE APPROPRIATELY OR THAT THE REPLACED PART ITSELF HAD A SIMILAR DEFECT, THE CONSUMER REQUEST REIMBURSEMENT. NLM

WHILE TRAVELING 30 MPH DRIVER'S SEATBACK BROKE, AND DRIVER FELL ALL WAY BACK. *AK

FIRE HAZARD STILL EXISTS WITH MORE THAN THE 1993 EAGLE VISION MODEL, ALTHOUGH NO MANUFACTURER'S RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED TO ADDRESS THIS CRITICAL PROBLEM. *AK

THE STREEING RACK BUSHING FAIL PREMATURELY LEADING TO EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE FRONT STEERING LINKAGES. THIS BUSHING WEAR IS SUSPECTED TO LEAD TO COMPOUNDED FAILURE OF THE INNER TIE ROD ENDS AND MAYBE THE TRANSMISSION MOUNTS. THE FIRST SIGN IS COLD WEATHER FRONT END SQUEEKING SOUNDS FROM THE RUBBER RACK BUSHINGS. WHEN THEY FAIL ENOUGH TO ALLOW ENOUGH FOWARD AND BACK PLAY, THE TIE ROD ENDS ARE SUBJECTED TO EXCESSIVE STRESS AND FAIL PREMATURELY. I QUESTION THAT THIS EXCESSIVE FOWARD/REARWARD PLAY ALLOWS EXCESSIVE STRESS TO THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION MOUNTS WITH SUBSQUENT FAILURE OF THESE PARTS. ADDITIONALLY, A COUPLE OF MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THAT THEY SEE THESE PROBLEMS WITH THIS VECHICLE EVERY WEEK. THANKS TOM BROWN

TORQUE CONVERTER AND FRONT PUMP HAVE FAILED WHICH WOULD NOT ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO SHIFT OUT OF 2ND GEAR. DEALER HAD TO REBUILT TRANSMISSION.*AK

THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE IGNITION SYSTEM, BUT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED. IGNITION SYSTEM QUITS ON THIS VEHICLE, JUST LIKE DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL. DEALR HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE OVERHEATED AND CONSTANT BLOWING HEAT OUT OF VENTS WHERE WATER PUMP HAD BEEN REPLACED FOUR TIMES, AND ENGINE THREE TIMES.*AK

SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 1994, I HAVE HAD PERSISTENT PROBLEMS WITH THE ALIGNMENT. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER ABOUT A WEEK LATER AND TOLD THEM THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS OFF CENTER. THEY TOLD ME THAT WAS NORMAL FOR THAT CAR. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ALIGNMENTS DONE, ROTATED TIRES, IT SEEMS THAT THE CAR CANNOT HOLD AN ALIGNMENT AT ALL. THE DEALER CHANGED TWO TIRES ONE YEAR FOR ME BECAUSE THE TIRES ON THE CAR WERE DAMAGED SO BADLY. THIS WAS SEVERAL YEARS AGO, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS.

THE ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AFTER MUCH HASSLING W/DEALER, THE REPLACED TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING VERY BADLY. THE TRANSMISSIONS WERE NOT ABUSED IN ANY WAY.
