- POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:LEVER AND LINKAGE:FLOOR SHIFTCampaign 04V021000 · 13/01/2004
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE FLOOR SHIFTER IGNITION-PARK INTERLOCK MAY FAIL AND ALLOW THE SHIFTER TO BE MOVED OUT OF THE PARK POSITION WITH THE KEY REMOVED. AN INOPERATIVE INTERLOCK MAY ALSO ALLOW THE KEY TO BE REMOVED WHEN THE SHIFTER HAS NOT BEEN PLACED IN THE PARK POSITION.
Risk: EITHER CIRCUMSTANCE MAY RESULT IN THE VEHICLE ROLLING AWAY WITHOUT WARNING.
Fix: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A NEW LOAD-LIMITING PUSH ROD INTO THE FLOOR SHIFTER LEVER OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 14, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.
- SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER ARMCampaign 99V215000 · 09/08/1999
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. THE LOWER CONTROL ARM ATTACHING BRACKETS CAN CRACK DUE TO FATIGUE AND SEPARATE FROM THE ENGINE CRADLE.
Risk: IF THIS OCCURS, THE TRANSMISSION HALF-SHAFT COULD PULL OUT OF THE TRANSAXLE AND RESULT IN LOSS OF POWER.
Fix: DEALERS WILL REINFORCE THE ENGINE CRADLE AT THE POINT WHERE THE LOWER CONTROL ARM ATTACHES TO IT.
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRINGCampaign 94V024000 · 08/02/1994
THE RIGHT STEERING TIE ROD CAN RUB THROUGH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WIRING HARNESS CAUSING A SHORT CIRCUIT WHICH RESULTS IN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS INCLUDING ENGINE STALLING AND AN INOPERATIVE PARK/STARTER INTERLOCK SYSTEM.
Risk: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MALFUNCTION CAUSING STALLING WHILE IN MOTION OR AN INOPERATIVE PARK/STARTER INTERLOCK SYSTEM, WHICH ALLOWS ENGINE START WHILE THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT IN THE PARK POSITION, MAY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.
Fix: INSTALL A REVISED WIRING HARNESS BRACKET AND A PLASTIC CONVOLUTED SLEEVE TO PROTECT THE TRANSMISSION WIRING HARNESS.
- FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEMCampaign 98V184000 · 06/08/1998
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES BUILT WITH 3.5L ENGINES. THE FUEL INJECTION DELIVERY SYSTEM CAN LEAK FUEL FROM SOME OF THE SEALING O-RINGS OR FROM HAIR LINE CRACKS IN THE THERMOSET FUEL INJECTION RAIL.
Risk: FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE CAN RESULT IN A FIRE.
Fix: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL RAIL O-RINGS AND REINFORCE THE OUTLET (PASSENGER) SIDE FUEL RAIL. VEHICLES SHOWING FUEL LEAKAGE ON THE OUTLET FUEL RAIL MUST HAVE THE OUTLET RAIL REPLACED WHICH INCLUDES CHANGING THE UPPER AND LOWER INJECTOR O-RINGS. HOWEVER, IF A VEHICLE IS LEAKING FUEL FROM THE O-RINGS OR FROM A CRACKED FUEL LINE, THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO A DEALER TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1994 CHRYSLER VISION. IN 2003, CHRYSLER ISSUED A VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR THE SEAT ASSEMBLY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE INSPECTED THE RECALL. ON OCTOBER 28, 2008, WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT BRACKET FAILED AND CAUSED THE BACKREST TO FALL BACKWARDS. SHE PULLED OVER AND RETURNED THE SEAT TO THE PROPER POSITION. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT DUE TO THE RECALL, BUT RATHER WEAR AND TEAR. A REPORT WAS FILED WITH THE MANUFACTURER AND THEY INVESTIGATED THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER'S INVESTIGATION CONFIRMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT CAUSED BY THE RECALL. THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE; THEREFORE, THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 70,165.

MY FATHER IN LAWS 1994 EAGLE VISION HAD COMPLETE STEERING FAILURE ONLY MOMENTS AFTER MY 16 YEAR OLD SON ARRIVED HOME. THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS HURT. I HAVE JUST FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR EAGLE AND INTREPID MODELS. IT HAPPENED ONLY YESTERDAY AND I HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO REPAIR THE CAR BUT THE PROBLEM IS IN THE STEERING ASSEMBLY. THE TIE ROD ENDS HAVE SHEARED OFF AND COMPLETELY DISABLED THE STEERING. HAD THIS HAPPENED A FEW MINUTES SOONER MY SON WOULD HAVE BEEN ON ONE OF THE MOST CONGESTED ROADS IN OUR AREA AND IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DISASTER. *NM

- 10/01/2000· STEERING
THE STREEING RACK BUSHING FAIL PREMATURELY LEADING TO EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE FRONT STEERING LINKAGES. THIS BUSHING WEAR IS SUSPECTED TO LEAD TO COMPOUNDED FAILURE OF THE INNER TIE ROD ENDS AND MAYBE THE TRANSMISSION MOUNTS. THE FIRST SIGN IS COLD WEATHER FRONT END SQUEEKING SOUNDS FROM THE RUBBER RACK BUSHINGS. WHEN THEY FAIL ENOUGH TO ALLOW ENOUGH FOWARD AND BACK PLAY, THE TIE ROD ENDS ARE SUBJECTED TO EXCESSIVE STRESS AND FAIL PREMATURELY. I QUESTION THAT THIS EXCESSIVE FOWARD/REARWARD PLAY ALLOWS EXCESSIVE STRESS TO THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION MOUNTS WITH SUBSQUENT FAILURE OF THESE PARTS. ADDITIONALLY, A COUPLE OF MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THAT THEY SEE THESE PROBLEMS WITH THIS VECHICLE EVERY WEEK. THANKS TOM BROWN
