1993 PLYMOUTH VOYAGER Complaints

AT APPROXIMATELY 44,000 MILES AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED UNDER A MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY. JUST RECENTLY, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILED AGAIN WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK. A PRIVATE MECHANIC HAS EXAMINED VEHICLE, AND DETERMINED THAT TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN WITH 91,000 TOTAL MILES ON VEHICLE. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/ATTACHMENTS. *AK

LIFTGATE SUPPORT BRACKET BOLT WAS BROKEN AND DISCONNECTED. COULD SEE SEPARATION BEFORE IT HAPPENED. *AK

MOTOR WOULD SHAKE WHENEVER VEHICLE HAS BEEN STARTED. ALSO, ENGINE WOULD BURN OIL EXCESSIVELY WHILE DRIVING. *AK

WOULD SHIFT INTO REVERSE AND VEHICLE WOULD START TO SHAKE, BUT NOT BACK UP. WOULD SHIFT INTO DRIVE AND VEHICLE ACTS VERY ERRATIC. WOULD BARELY MOVE FORWARD. TAKING VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP TO CHECK OUT TRANSMISSION.*AK

OUR VEHICLES MOTOR WILL SHUT OFF DURING RAIN OR WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER IS ON. WE HAVE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO TWO DEALERSHIPS AND THEY CAN FIND NOTHING. OUR NEIGHBOR HAS THE SAME YEAR WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS HAS CREATED A VERY HAZARDOUS DRIVING EXPERIENCE FOR MY WIFE. *AK

DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO SEND A MECHANIC TO REPAIR 3 RECALL NOTICES, INCLUDING RECALL 99V113000/ AIR BAG FAILURE; RECALL 97V148000/ SEAT BELT FAILURE, AND 96V099OOO/ ABS BRAKE FAILURE. AUTHORIZED ANOTHER MECHANIC TO PERFORM WORK TO REPAIR RECALL, OR PROVIDE CONSUMER WITH NECESSARY PARTS TO REPAIR THE DEFECTS. CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THAT DEALERSHIP WAS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO PERFORM THESE FUNCTIONS. *AK THE CONSUMER HAD ASKED THE MANUFACTURER FOR ASSISTANCE IN REPAIRING THE STEERING WHEEL, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER PIVOT AND LIFT GATE SUPPRT BOLTS, BECAUSE THE PARTS WERE DEFECTIVE, BUT THE MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO HELP. *YH

BRAKE AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON. THEN, BRAKES STARTED TO FAIL. CONSUMER ALMOST WENT THROUGH A INTERSECTION. CONSUMER FELT CAR SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER RECALL. *AK

CONSUMER RECEIVED RECALL 96V099 REPAIRS HOWEVER, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT HAVE BECOME ILLUMINATED ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED TWICE, ON BOTH OCCASIONS, THE BRAKE PEDAL PUSHED TO THE HALFWAY POSITION WHERE IT MET RESISTANCE, HOWEVER THERE WAS NO BRAKING POWER. *SLC

DRIVER SEATBACK FAILED COMPLETELY TO THE REAR. SEAT BACK HAD OVER TIME PROGRESSIVELY TILTED FURTHER REARWARD, AND ADJUSTMENT WAS NOT POSSIBLE TO COMPENSATE. THE RIGHT-MOST RAIL CONNECTED TO THE ADJUSTING RATCHET IS CLEANLY BROKEN, AS IF HACKSAWED. IT LIKELY WAS SLOWLY CRACKING, RESULTING IN THE SEAT BACK TILTING FURTHER REAR-WARD OVER SEVERAL MONTHS. THE METAL CRACK ITSELF IS NEAR A PROTRUSION IN THE RAIL ITSELF, ABOUT HALFWAY TOWARDS THE FRONT, OBVIOUSLY A WEAK POINT (BUT NORMAL USAGE?). A CURSORY WEB SEARCH FOUND ABOUT A HALF-DOZEN SIMILAR INCIDENTS. I PLAN TO CONTACT THE DEALER/ZONE REP ASAP; THIS IS CLEARLY NOT A NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. THANKS.*AK

VEHICLE HAS EXPERIENCED THE SAME WIPER FAILURE ON 2 OCCASIONS, LINKAGE CAME OFF STUD FOR MOTOR, A NUT CAME OFF, AND LEFT PIVOT CAME OFF ON LINKAGE, DEALER REPLACED LINKAGE AND PIVOTS, CONSUMER IS REQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE SECOND FAILURE SINCE IT HAPPENED ONLY 110 MILES AFTER DEALER REPAIRED WIPERS FROM FIRST FAILURE.
