I HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH THE ABS SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES TO DATE AND IS NOW BEGINNING TO FAIL ONCE AGAIN. I HAVE HAD NUMERSOUS REPAIRS TO THE A/C SYSTEM. THEW FIRST WAS IN 1996 ($472). THE SECOND IN 1998 ($850). THE THIRD ALSO IN 1998 ($286). THE FOURTH AGAIN IN 1998 ($673). THE FIFTH IN 1999 ($178). THE SIXTH IN 2000 ($688). SO, TO DATE, I HAVE SPENT OVER $3000.00 HAVING THE A/C REPAIRED ON THIS VEHICLE. THE FREQUENCY OF REPAIRS AND THE AMOUNT PAID FOR THESE REPAIRS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND SUGGESTS THAT THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS COMPONENT THAT SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANUFACTURER. TO SUMMARIZE, I HAVE HAD FREQUENT AND EXCESSIVE PROBLEMS WITH BOTH THE ABS AND A/C SYSTEMS. THANK YOU FOR YOU ATTENTION.

WE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS. DURING THE WARMER MONTHS, WE HAVE HAD TO ADD FREON ABOUT EVERY 2 MONTHS. WE HAVE HAD TO ADD FREON TO THE SYSTEM AT LEAST 5 TIMES SINCE 8/98, WHICH IS EXCESSIVE BECAUSE THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM IS GENERALLY ONLY USED DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS IN NORTHERN ILLINOIS. EARLIER AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM CHECKS COULD NOT DETECT WHERE THE LEAK WAS OCCURING. A RECENT CHECK IN APRIL RESULTED IN A DIAGNOSIS OF AN EVAPORATOR PROBLEM. THE FIRESTONE REPAIR SHOP MANAGER STATED THAT AIR CONDITIONER PROBLEMS WERE COMMON FOR THE PLYMOUTH/CHRYSLER MINIVANS. *AK

OVER CHARGING OF AC SYSTEM,CAUSES TRANSMISSION/TIRES AND ENGINE TO LOCK.THIS IS AN EXTREME HAZARD TO PASSANGERS OF BOTH VEHICLES, AND ANY OTHER ON COMING VEHICLE. PLUS IT CAN BE USED BY DEALERS TO SELL TRANSMISSIONSIONS.IT CAUSES PREMATURE TIRE FAILURE. AND EXTREME LOSS OF CONTROL ON TURNS.IT IS ALSO A HAZARD ON ANY VEHICLES WITH THE SAME SYSTEM.I'VE SPOKEN TO TWO DEALERS AND TWO LOCAL CAR MECHANICS.WHO COULD NOT SOLVE MY PROBLEM.UNTIL THE A/C SYSTEM FAILED,AND THE A/C TECH KNEW WHAT WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM.MY VEHICLE WOULD STALL HALF WAY THROUGH A TURN(ROUTINELY),ALL FOUR WHEELS (ALL WHEEL DRIVE)WOULD LOCK UP AT 65MPH ON THE INTERSTATE.I'VE NEVER HAD A SET OF TIRES LAST LONGER THAN ABOUT TWENTY THOUSAND MILES. ALL THREE DEALERS MY VEHICLE WAS SERVICED AT SINCE IT WAS NEW, NEVER ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM. *AK
