THE HORN AND CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. IT WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION. IT HAPPEND WHILE IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. THEY SAID THAT THE CLOCK SPRING WAS BROKEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE 1996-1998 MODELS FOR THE BROKEN CLOCKSPRING BUT NOT THE 2001. I SEE LOTS OF COMMENTS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE BEYOND THOSE MODEL YEARS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THEY NEED TO EXTEND THE RECALL BEYOND 1998 SINCE THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MORE THAN THOSE 2 YEARS!

CHRYSLER 2001 VOYAGER: 68K MILES AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. APPROXIMATELY 10 NOV 06, AIRBAG ALERT LIGHT CAME ON, INTERMITTENTLY. BY 10 DEC 06, LIGHT IS ON CONSTANTLY. OPERATION OF STEERING WHEEL, SEEMS TO TRIGGER EVENT. FROM INTERNET READING, IT IS EASY TO SEE THAT THE CLOCKSPRING IS DEFECTIVE. THIS PROBLEM WAS HIGHLIGHTED IN NHTSA RECALL NOTICE OF 02V293000, WHICH DOESN'T COVER MY VEHICLE YEAR. EVIDENTLY, IT TAKES TIME FOR THE FAILURE MECHANISM TO EXPOSE ITS SELF. I AM REQUESTING THAT THE NHTSA EXTEND THE RECALL TO MORE RECENT YEARS, AS CHRYSLER HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, WHILE PASSING THE COST OF REPAIR OF THE DEFECTIVE PART (SAFETY RELATED) TO THE CUSTOMER. *JB

AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT KEPT TURNING ON ESPECIALLY DURING ANY TURN. DEALER REPLACED DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING. SAYS THAT THIS WAS A RECALL ITEM FOR 1998-2000 VOYAGERS BUT NOT 2001. CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY REFUSED TO NEGOTIATE. I THINK IT IS SHAMEFUL THAT CHRYSLER KNOWS IT HAS A PROBLEM BASED ON PREVIOUS YEARS MODELS BUT FORCES CONSUMER TO PAY FOR REPAIR. *NM

I PURCHASED MY 2001 CHRYSLER VOYAGER IN AUGUST OF 2001, BY SEPTEMBER I HAD IT BACK TO CHRYSLER BECAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON. THEY FIXED IT (CLOCKSPRING) AFTER 3 MONTHS, PROBLEM RE-OCCURRED. I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN 2 ACCIDENTS IN THIS CAR, THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN SERVICED BY CHRYSLER 3 TIMES, IT IS STILL ON TO THIS DAY. I KNOW THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON, AND THAT PREVIOUS YEARS MODELS WERE RECALLED. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORPORATE, TO NO AVAIL, AS A MATTER OF FACT, THE PERSON I SPOKE TO "BLACKLISTED" ME AND TOLD ME NOT TO CALL BACK, THAT SHE PUT MY NAME DOWN IN THE RECORDS AND HUNG UP ON ME. I HAVE 3 KIDS AND I FEEL LIKE I AM JEOPARDIZING ALL OF US BECAUSE OF INCOMPETENCE AND NEGLECT ON THE PART OF CHRYSLER. *JB
