2000 Plymouth Grand Voyager recalls

Recall 04V-480: Air Bags

Reported Oct 6, 2004 · 955,344 vehicles affected · DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION

Problem: On certain minivans, the driver's air bag may become disabled due to a failure of the clockspring, which is located in the hub of the steering wheel.

Risk: This condition will manifest itself through illumination of the air bag warning lamp, and could eventually result in a driver's air bag open circuit, if the part is not replaced in a reasonable amount of time.

Fix: Dealers will replace the clockspring assembly on all covered vehicles with 70,000 miles or less. For those vehicles with more than 70,000 miles, daimlerchrysler will offer an extended lifetime warranty under which it will replace the clockspring at no charge if it fails. Daimlerchrysler will also reimburse owners who have paid to have the clockspring replaced on their vehicles. The recall began on october 12, 2004. Owners should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

Recall 00V-268: Fuel System, Gasoline

Reported Sep 13, 2000 · 1,163,000 vehicles affected · DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION

Problem: Vehicle description: mini vans built with 3.3l and 3.8l engines have fuel rails with nitrole rubber o-ring seals that can degrade over time. Fuel leakage from the underhood fuel injection fuel rail could result, increasing the likelihood of a vehicle fire.

Risk: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.

Fix: Dealers will install a seal on the vehicle fuel rails to prevent external leakage of fuel from the fuel rail crossover tube, should the existing o-rings continue to degrade. Owner notification began on january 25, 2002. Due to the large quantity of vehicles involved in this campaign, the owner notification will be phased over the next several months. However, if a vehicle is leaking fuel from the o-rings, the vehicle should be taken into a dealer to have this repaired as soon as possible. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

This letter is regarding a manufacturer defect in the 2000 plymouth grand voyager and 2000 chrysler town and country vans. There is an issue with the vehicles in wet weather. When it rains and the driver goes through water, the vehicles shut themselves down completely. Lights turn off, power steering is arrested, and the driver has to coast to a stop. This has happened several times to my parents, and more than once, they have had to secure the services of a towing company to get the vehicle(S) home or to a repair shop.

I own a 2000 grand voyager van. I have been dealing with the serpentine belt falling off so much in the history of ownership that I AM frustrated beyond belief. This problem occurs mostly when it rains and I have spent $2000 plus dollars in tows charges and mechanic services charges to replace the serpentine belt, tensioner with pulley and idler pulley. I feel that the dodge/plymouth vehicle manufacturers have known of this problem and have let consumers suffer and struggle with this safety issues with no intervention on their part.
