1992 PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER Complaints

WHILE DRIVING TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY SHUTDOWN. THIS HAD BEEN THE SECOND TIME THAT TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE FIXED. DEALERAND CONSUMER AGREED TO SPLIT THE COST FOR THE SECOND REPAIR, ALTHOUGH THE CONSUMER THOUGHT THAT THE ESTIMATE WAS TOO HIGH. *AK *ML

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED CONSUMER WOULD STEP ON BRAKE PEDAL TO REDUCE SPEED OR STOP VEHICLE, BUT BRAKES WON'T RESPOND. CONSUMER WILL HAVE TO STEP HARDER ON BRAKES TO STOP. *AK

WE PURCHASED OUR MINI VAN IN NOVEMBER 1996 AND HAD THE FIRST TRANSMISSION FAILURE LESS THAN 2 MONTHS LATER AND HAD THE SAME PROBLEM "REPAIRED" 3 TIMES MORE IN THE 3 YEARS WE HAVE OWNED IT. IN APRIL 1996, A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE ABS OF THIS MAKE/MODEL/YEAR. WHEN WE PURCHASED IT, THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT TELL US THIS NOR DID CHRYSLER CORP. WE FOUND OUT AFTER OUR ABS FAILED WHEN DRIVING. LUCKILY WE WERE NOT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. IT THEN FAILED AGAIN 6 MONTHS AFTER THEY "FIXED" THE ABS IN FEBRUARY 2000. THEY WILL NOT DO THE REPAIR NOW FOR UNDER $1600--WE DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BE PAYING ANYTHING! I BELIEVE WE MAY HAVE BEEN PART OF A CONSUMER FRAUD FROM THE DEALERSHIP AS THEY TOLD US OF NO RECALLS AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE WHEN THERE WERE SEVERAL ISSUED ON THIS PARTICULAR YEAR AND MODEL. WE WANT CHRYSLER TO REFUND OUR PURCHASE PRICE AND COST OF REPAIRS OVER THE PAST THREE YEARS. WE DRIVE AROUND WITH OUR 5 CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND CANNOT RISK ANOTHER ABS FAILURE. THE ASST TO THE CEO AT DAIMLER CHRYSLER WAS OF NO HELP STATING, "WE DON'T MAKE OUR VEHICLES TO INCONVENIENCE YOU." WHEN IT IS MORE THAN BEING "INCONVENIENCED" IT IS ABOUT THE SAFETY OF OUR FAMILY AND OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD AT THE SAME TIME WE ARE. ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE US IS MUCH APPRECIATED AS WE WILL NOT GIVE UP UNTIL SOMETHING IS DONE TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION. THANK YOU. *AK
