WE OWN A 1991 PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER. ON JANUARY 9, 2006 THE ABS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. WE HAD THE BRAKES OF OUR PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER SUPPOSEDLY FIXED BY CROWN CHRYSLER IN GREENSBORO, NC AT THIS TIME. WE BOUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BASED ON NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 96V099000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC; ANTILOCK). IN OCTOBER OF 2007, THE ABS BRAKES QUIT WORKING AGAIN. THE ABS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. AFTER TALKING TO OUR MECHANIC, WE FINALLY BOUGHT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP IN GREENSBORO ON JANUARY 25, 2008. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ABS CAB CONTROLLER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, THE PART WAS NO LONGER BEING MANUFACTURED. HE ADVISED US TO CHECK WITH A SALVAGE YARD FOR PARTS. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO CHECK THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT , MY HUSBAND LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND FOUND BRAKE FLUID SPILLED OVER THE ENTIRE MASTER CYLINDER. THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WAS EMPTY AFTER THE DEALER CHECKED THE CAR OUT AND RETURNED IT TO US. SINCE THIS RECALL HAD A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON IT, IT SHOULD BE THE DEALERS RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM WITHOUT CHARGE. THE PART WAS PREVIOUSLY REPLACED AT 50,847 MILES UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 96V099000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC : ANTILOCK) THE POWER TRAIN IS AUTOMATIC. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,847 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 58,791. PLEASE HELP US TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE DEALERSHIP. *TR
