AFTER THE RECALL REPAIR WAS DONE THE HORN STOPPED WORKING, AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE POWER WHEN ACCELERATING.

ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH MY 1998 PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER. WIPERS WILL NOT TURN OFF AND ALL GAUGES DIED. NO SPEEDOMETER, NO TACHOMETER, NO FUEL GAUGE AND NO TEMP GAUGE. *NM

OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST COUPLE YEARS I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE LENSES THAT COVER THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 1997 PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER HAVE BECOME INCREASINGLY HAZED, OR FOGGED OVER. THE HAZING HAS CAUSED THE LIGHT TO BECOME SO DIFFUSED, THAT DRIVING AT NIGHT HAS BECOME VERY DIFFICULT AT BEST. IF THE WEATHER IS BAD (RAIN, OR HEAVY SNOW) AT NIGHT IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE PROPERLY. I HAVE SEEN A NUMBER OF OTHER PLYMOUTH VOYAGERS THAT APPEAR TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THAT THE TYPE OF PLASTIC USED IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES WAS UNSUITABLE FOR A SAFETY PART THAT IS EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS AS CAR (VAN) HEADLIGHTS ARE. I WOULD HOPE THAT ACTION WILL BE TAKEN TO CORRECT THIS DEFECT SO THAT NOBODY IS INJURED OR KILLED AS A RESULT. *NM

DRIVING IN THE RAIN MADE THE POWER STEERING BELT COME OFF. THE RESULT WAS I WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VAN AND HAD TO SIT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WE HAD TO GET A SHOP TO COME AND GET THE CAR AND PUT THE BELT BACK ON. *NM

TL*- THE CONTACT COMPLAINEDS BECAUSE CHRIS LEITH DODGE FAILED TO CORRECT THEB RAKE PROBLEM. THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE PROPERLY, THE VEHICLE CAME TO A ROLLING STOP WHILE ALMOST STANDING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO THEM ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. *AK

2000 PLYMOUTH BREEZE WITH 2.4L ENGINE HAS RUSTING OIL PAN AND LEAKING OIL COULD CAUSE FIRE OR ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS. THE METAL ON THE OIL PAN DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE GOOD ENOUGH TO WITHSTAND WINTER SALT SITUATIONS. *NM
