2000 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN Electrical System Problems

The contact owns a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated that while driving at 55 MPH, there was an abnormal noise and noticed that the vehicle's windshield wiper and blinkers had become inoperable. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle had been diagnosed by an independent mechanic. The contact was informed that the failure was due to a faulty wiper transmission linkage, a relay, and a switch. The relay and switch were replaced however, the wiper transmission linkage was not repaired due to parts not being available. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and determined that parts were not available. The failure mileage was approximately 110.000

THE SERPENTINE BELT ON 96-2000 CHRYSLER MINIVANS SLIPPING OFF IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND HAS BEEN FOR YEARS. TIME AND TIME AGAIN CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR IT. IT IS DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN ONE OF THE ENGINE MOUNTS CAUSING A PULLEY MISALIGNMENT. THE BELT SLIPPING OFF CAUSES LOSS OF POWER STEERING, WATER PUMP, AND ALTERNATOR. THE POWER STEERING LOSS CAN CAUSE A DRIVER TO NOT BE ABLE TO CORRECT IN TIME AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE LOSS OF THE WATER PUMP CAN CAUSE OVERHEATING RESULTING IN ENGINE DAMAGE. THE LOSS OF THE ALTERNATOR CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO EVENTUALLY STOP RUNNING WHEN THE BATTERY IS DRAINED, CAUSING MOTORISTS TO BE STRANDED. I LIVE IN ALASKA AND I'M NOT ALWAYS IN CELLULAR SIGNAL WHEN DRIVING AND TEMPERATURES IN THE WINTER GET DOWN TO -30 F AT TIMES. I CAN'T WAIT SOMETIMES SEVERAL HOURS FOR A TOW TRUCK TO GET TO ME WITHOUT RISKING HYPOTHERMIA AT THOSE TEMPERATURES. THIS NEEDS TO BE MADE INTO A RECALL SO IT CAN GET FIXED.

I HAVE A 2000 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. I AM QUITE CERTAIN MY CLOCKSPRING HAS BROKEN AND MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS LIT ALL THE TIME, AND MY HORN AND CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK.*AK I BELIEVE CHRYSLER HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE 2000 MODEL, BUT ONLY FOR THE 1996-1998 MODELS. YET SEARCHING THE WEB REVEALS MANY, MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE 2000 MODELS AS WELL. THIS IS A SAFEY ISSUE CAUSES BY CHRYSLER'S EQUIPPMENT AND SHOULD BE A PROVIDED FREE REPAIR. CHRYSLER DOES NOT OFFER TO REPAIR IT FOR FREE. I AM CURRENTLY OUT OF MY PRINTING CAREER AND AM HAVING DIFFICULTY FINDING WORK AGAIN, SO THE $250 PLUS TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED IS A HEAVY LOAD AT THIS TIME. CHRYSLER SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS FOR ALL THE 1999 AND 2000 MODELS AS WELL. I KNOW THE NHTSA IS INVESTIGATING THIS, BUT WITH HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINS ALREADY FILED, HOW MUCH MORE INFORMATION DOES IT NEED TO ACT? I DONT KNOW THE PROCESS, BUT WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW? THIS IS A SAFTEY ISSUE, AND THIS IS OUR FAMILIY VEHICLE. PLUS, THE ANNUAL INSPECTION IS COMING UP IN LESS THAN 4 MONTHS, AND IT WILL NOT PASS WITHOUT THE HORN AND CRUISE AND AIRBAG BROKEN. THANK YOU FOR ANY INFORMATION AND ADVICE YOU CAN GIVE ME. THANKS AGAIN! JOHN CALOGRIDES

I JUST PURCHASED MY 2000 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN JULY 26,2003. IN MARCH OF 2004, I GOT INTO MY VAN, STARTED IT UP, AND WHEN I WENT TO BACK UP I HEARD A DING AND MY ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN WENT OFF. FROM THAT POINT ON, THE ABS LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND WHEN IT DID, THE CONTROLS IN THE DASHBOARD WOULD STOP WORKING. I WOULD LOOSE MY ODOMETER, TACHOMETER, GAS GAUGE, SPEEDOMETER, AND GEAR SELECT. I TOOK IT TO A DODGE DEALERSHIP, THEY HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS AND SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. I THEN TOOK IT TO AN AUTOMOTIVE ELECTRICAL SERVICE SHOP, THEY HAVE HAD MY VAN FOR 3 WEEKS AND CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE SUPPOSEDLY CALLED DODGE AND DODGE IS NOT HELPING THEM. THEY RECOMMEND US TAKING IT BACK TO A DODGE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE VAN AND NO ONE CAN FIND IT AND I CAN NOT DRIVE THE VAN SAFELY WITHOUT THIS PROBLEM BEING FIXED.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED MY VAN USED, AND HAVE HAD THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS WITH IT..THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOOKS WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO. I HAVE HAD MY CHILDS CARE SEAT COME UNBUCKLED FROM THE MIDDLE BENCH SEAT BEFORE. MY BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON WHEN THEY WANT TO AND STAY ON, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT YOU WILL GET UP AND FIND THE BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE COME ON FOR NO REASON. THE LASTEST PROBLEM IS WHEN YOU OPEN A DOOR ON THE VAN, THE OPEN DOOR LIGHT COMES ON AND MY LOW GAS LIGHT COMES ON AND MAKES ITS WARNING TONE AND MY FUEL GAUGE GOES TO EMPTY. WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DOOR AND THE WARNING LIGHTS GO OFF AND MY FUEL GAUGE RETURNS TO FULL.*AK

I LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT REGARDING 2000 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. THIS VEHICLE HAS EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM OTHER OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT REGARDING THE HORN AND AIR BAG NOT FUNCTIONING DUE TO A DEFECTIVE CLOCKSPRING HARNESS. CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO RECALL THIS COMPONENT OR ACKNOWLEDGE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE OTHER THAN SAYING IT SHOULD BE FIXED. MOST MINI-VAN OWNERS TRANSPORT FAMILIES IN THESE VEHICLES AND IT IS A SHAME THAT CHRYSLER WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. *LA

I HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE TO THE DEALER 7 TIMES TO FIX ELECTRICAL ISSUES. WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE ON DASH FUNCTIONS CRASH, LOCKS DON'T WORK, WIPERS DON'T WORK, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. DEALER HAS REPLACED FUSES, RE-WIRED, REPLACED BODY CONTROL MODULE. DEALER IS UNABLE TO RESOLVE PROBLEM. NOW DEALER ADVISES THAT IN ORDER TO FIX THE PROBLEM, IT WILL REQUIRE 3 ELECTRICAL HARNESSES, COSTING $3000! *JB

VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP 6 TIMES FOR THE SAME REPORTED ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. WHEN VEHICLE WENT OVER BUMPS, TURNED RIGHT, OR OWNER TURNED ON THE HEAT.....THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD FLASH, DOOR LOCKS WOULD GO UP AND DOWN, AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHTS ON THE DASH WOULD FLASH. EACH TIME WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO BE CHECKED WE WERE TOLD THAT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WERE HARD TO DIAGNOSE UNLESS IT WAS PHYSICALLY HAPPENING WHILE BEING DIAGNOSED! THE DEALERSHIP ADJUSTED THE DOORS AND REPLACED THE BCM MOTOR UNDER THE DASH HOWEVER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS CONTINUED AND ON 10/11/02 THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE IN THE DASH BY THE STEERING COLUMN WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE!!! WE GOT OUT WITHOUT INJURY THANK GOODNESS BUT THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALLY ENGULFED WITHIN 6 MINUTES! TO DODGE THIS WAS NO LOSS TO SUCH A LARGE COMPANY BUT TO MY HUSBAND AND I...IT COULD HAVE BEEN OUR 4 CHILDREN! MR
