1992 PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER Complaints

ABOUT A YEAR AGO, MY VAN STARTED SHIFTING FUNNY. I WAS HAVING TROUBLE GOING FROM FIRST GEAR TO SECOND GEAR. IF WE TURNED OFF THE IGNITION, THE COMPUTER WOULD RESET ITSELF AND THE VAN WOULD RUN FINE FOR A WHILE. THIS WENT ON FOR A FEW MONTHS, THEN WE DECIDED TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION CHECKED(BECAUSE EVERY ONE WE KNOW WITH CHRYSLER VANS HAS HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT SOME TIME), AND THE MECHANIC TOLD US THAT THE COMPUTER JUST NEEDED TO BE RESET,SO WE HAD IT DONE. THE VAN RAN WELL FOR A FEW MORE MONTHS AND THEN THE TROUBLES STARTED UP AGAIN ONLY WORSE. WE WERE HAVING INCIDENTS OF NON-SHIFTING ALMOST EVERY TIME WE DROVE THE VAN, SO IT IS NOW PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND HASN'T MOVED FOR ABOUT A MONTH. WE WOULD LIKE TO GET THE TRANSMISSION FIXED, BUT WANTED TO SEE IF CHRYSLER HAD ANY RECALLS OUT ON THESE VANS.

LEAK IN FUEL INJECTOR RAIL ASSEMBLY COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ENGINE FIRE OR EXPLOSION. ASSEMBLY HAS NO MOVING PARTS AND SHOULD NOT HAVE LEAKED.

THE REAR WINDOW GLASS SHATTERED WITH NO OBVIOUS REASON. I WENT IN THE CAR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, CLOSED THE DOOR AND HEARD THE SHATTERED SOUND. LOOKING BACK AND SAW A CRACKED REAR WINDSHIELD WITH A HOLE.
