I HAVE EXPERIENCED 2 FAILURES OF THE ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT TENSIONER ON MY 1995 PLYMOUTH VOYAGER. THE FIRST FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE I WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE AT ABOUT 10 MPH. THE BELT TENSIONER ASSEMBLY BROKE AWAY FROM THE MOUNTING RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF MY POWER STEERING AND NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND A NEW BELT TENSIONER PUT IN. THE SERVICE MAN TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD SEEN A LOT OF THESE BELT TENSIONER FAILURES. RECENTLY, DURING A SERVICE VISIT TO REPLACE THE FAULTY AIRBAG ON THE VEHICLE, THE SERVICE PEOPLE REPORTED THAT THE BELT TENSIONER WAS AGAIN "FROZEN" AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WHEN I ASKED WHETHER THEY WOULD REPLACE THE PART FOR FREE, THEY TOLD ME TO CALL CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE. I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING FOR ME, AND THAT CHRYSLER DID NOT CONSIDER THIS PROBLEM TO BE A SAFETY PROBLEM. I CONSIDER THIS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM. IT CERTAINLY WAS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN IT FAILED ON MY VEHICLE THE FIRST TIME, AND I COULD BARELY STEER THE VEHICLE. I HAVE ALSO SEEN AT LEAST ONE OTHER NEAR ACCIDENT DUE TO THE SAME BELT TENSIONER PROBLEM ON ANOTHE VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A CHRONIC PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. *AK
NO SUMMARY
WE HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE IN ABOUT 8 DIFFERENT TIMES SINCE WE FIRST PURCHASED IT FOR A "CONSTANT TICKING NOISE AT THE ENGINE" AND LOSS OF OIL. WE PURCHASED IT ORIGINALLY FROM AUTONATION USA WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND AUTONATION ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM BUT COULD NOT AND THEY RECOMMENDED THAT WE TAKE IT TO A CHRYSLER DEALER. WE HAVE TAKEN THE VAN TO NEAL POPE CHRYSLER JEEP IN ATLANTA ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASSIONS AND THEY CONTINUE TO SAY IT'S ONE THING AFTER THE OTHER AND NOTHING IS FIXING THE PROBLEM. WE ARE LOSING MONEY, PRECIOUS TIME, BEING INCONVENIENCED CONSTANTLY, AND WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE WARRANTY COMPANY WHO ARE REFUSING TO PAY FOR REPAIRS. WE COULD REALLY USE SOME HELP WITH THIS ONE!
