1996 Chrysler Town AND Country steering problems

STEERING

MY MINIVAN HAS BEEN NOT WANTING TO START, THE SPEEDOMETER HAS BEEN JUMPING ALL OVER THE PLACE . I HAD MY FUEL PUMP AND FILTER REPLACED IN DECEMBER 2014 DUE TO IT NOT STARTING. NOW WITHIN THE LAST 2 WEEKS OR SO IT STARTED TO ACT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO DIE AS I WOULD BE DRIVING AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD JUMP OUT OF GEAR. ALL THIS LAST WEEK IT HAS BEEN GIVING ME PROBLEMS WITH STARTING AND EVERY TIME I WOULD GET OUT OF THE VAN IT WOULD SMELL LIKE SOMETHINGS BURNING. WHEN I TURN THE KEY TO START IT ALL YOU COULD HEAR IS A CLICK, TRY TO START IT A COUPLE MORE TIMES AND FINALLY GET IT TO START. TODAY IT WOULDN'T START NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I TRIED TO START IT. I OPEN THE HOOD AND LOOKED AT THE BATTERY AND ONE TERMINAL LOOKS LIKE IT IS BURNT.

STEERING:COLUMN LOCKING:ANTI-THEFT DEVICE

WE BOUGHT THIS USED CAR WITH A KARR SECURITY SYSTEM INSTALLED. WE SINCE HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS IS A PREFERRED DEALER (SALES DEPARTMENT) ADD ON, USEFUL FOR THE DEALERS SECURITY AND ACCESS OF VEHICLES ON OPEN LOTS ETC. SALEMEN USE A MASTER ENTRY UNIT ON ALL CARS. THE ORIGINAL FOBS CONTROLLING THIS VEHICLE SEEMED TO BE MISSING WITHOUT EXPLAINATION. THE SYSTEM WAS NOT STABLE AND MALFUNCTIONED FREQUENTLY IN ALL MODES. WE DID NOTICE THAT THE HOOD SECURITY BUTTON HAD BEEN DEFEATED WITH A PLASTIC TIE STRAP, BUT ASSUMED THAT DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE KARR SYSTEM HAD TO BE EMPLOYED BY THE CHEVY DEALER, LACKING CHRYSLER PARTS, A COMPROMISE. THE FUEL SENSOR BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION AND WOULD CONTINUALLY GO OFF WITH A FULL TANK. THERE WAS HORN BLARING, LOCKOUTS AND ENGINE KILLINGS GOT WORSE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO CARL BURGER DODGE HERE IN SAN DIEGO AND INSISTED THAT WE WANTED ALL THE OFFENDING EQUIPMENT REMOVED, LEAVING ONLY THE LIGHTED ENTRY SYSTEM AND THE REMOTE LOCKING. I ASKED FOR THE PARTS AND WHAT I GOT BACK WOULD FIT IN AN AREA ABOUT ONE FOOT SQ. THE VEHICLE HAS OPERATED PERFECTLY EVER SINCE AND THE GAS INDICATOR HAS CEASED TO MALFUNCTION. IT IS MY OPINION THAT THE MISAPPLICATION OF THE OVERLAID KARR SYSTEM ONTOP OF OEM EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE BOLDLY DECLARED TO CUSTOMERS AND NOT ALLOWED TO COMPROMISE USED OR NEW VEHICLES FACTORY SYSTEMS. THOSE BLARING HORNS ARE USELESS AND ONLY MAKE PEOPLE MORE CALLOUSED. THE OVERRIDE SYSTEM USED BY KARR IS EXCEEDINGLY DIFFICULT AND ACTIVATED FAR TOO OFTEN. A NEIGHBOR WHO HAS NEARLY THE SAME SYSTEM TOLD ME THAT TO HAVE IT INSTALLED COST $800. IT COST ME $140 TO HAVE IT REMOVED AND TO HAVE THE OEM KEY FOBS REPLACED AND REPROGRAMED. IT WAS MONEY WELL SPENT. THE VEHICLE NOW SEEMS TO BELONG TO US AND WORKS BEAUTIFULLY. I HEAR HORNS GOING OFF ALL AROUND MY COMMUNITY. IT ISN'T NECESSARY. THIS HIGH COST IS BEING PAWNED OFF ONTO CUSTOMERS FOR THE SO CALLED SECURITY OF VEHICLES IN DEALERS LOTS. IT IS MADDENING. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING.

STEERING:RACK AND PINION

LOCAL DEALERS MECHANICS STATED THAT THEY HAVE SEEN ALOT OF THESE FAILURES. THE RACK AND PINION BREAKS DOWN SENDING DEBRIS INTO THE POWER STEERING FLUID THAT FLOWS INTO THE POWER STEERING PUMP AND DESTROYS THE VALVES COMPLETELY TAKING OUT THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM. THE ENTIRE POWER STEERING AND RACK AND PINION MUST BE REPLACED.

STEERING:LINKAGES:ARM:IDLER AND ATTACHMENT

IT SEEMS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CHRYSLER MINI-VANS, THE "CLOCK SPRING" IN THE STEERING WHEEL THAT CONNECTS THE SPEED CONTROL, HORN AND AIR BAGS TO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN THE VAN. THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING AT ALL TIMES WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. THE SPEED CONTROL, AND HORN ALSO DO NOT WORK WHEN THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON. THIS CONCERNS ME THAT THE AIR BAGS WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECTIVE CONNECTION IN THE STEERING WHEEL. ACCORDING TO A RECENT ARTICLE IN THE PRESS, CHRYSLER HAS SOLD OVER 124,000 OF THESE PARTS. I RECENTLY WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION IN WHICH THE AIR BAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AND DIDN'T.

STEERING

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OCCASIONALLY WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO OVERDRIVE. OFTEN OCCURRED AFTER DECELERATION FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ONLY WAY TO KNOW WAS TO OBSERVE ENGINE RPM. SOMETIMES COULD RESET BY PULLING OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TURNING ENGINE OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES, THEN RE-START. FIRST REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION ALSO HAD PROBLEMS. SECOND HAS BEEN OKAY. WIPERS ON INTERMITTENT SETTINGS WOULD WIPE SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW, THEN NOT WIPE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD. CREATED VISIBILITY PROBLEMS. FIRST REPAIR REPLACED MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH. THIS DIDN'T SOLVE PROBLEM. SECOND REPAIR REPLACED WIPER MOTOR. NOTICED THAT THE HEATER WAS NOT WORKING. SHOP DETERMINED THE EVAPORATOR WAS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY DUE TO LEAKS. ONLY WAY TO REPLACE EVAPORATOR IS TO REMOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL; VERY EXPENSIVE AND TIME CONSUMING.

STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM

I WAS STOPPING AT A RED LIGHT WHEN I HEARD A LOUD THUNK FROM THE RIGHT FRONT OF THE CAR. I THOUGHT PERHAPS I HAD RUN OVER A ROCK RO PIECE OF METAL IN THE STREET THAT BOUNCED UP AND INTO THE WHEEL WELL. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED I PROCEEDED FOR SEVERAL BLOCKS AND THEN ATTEMPTED A RIGHT TURN, ONLY TO FIND THAT I COULD NOT GET THE CAR STEERED INTO MY LANE AS THE POWER STEERING HAD DISAPPEARED, UNBEKNOWNST TO ME. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO CAR WAITING AT THE STOP SIGN ON THE STREET ONTO WHICH I WAS ATTEMPTING TO TURN, OR I WOULD HAVE RUN SQUARELY INTO IT. AS IT WAS THE CAR OVERHEATED AND COMPLETELY EXPIRED WHILE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO GET IT TO A REPAIR SHOP LESS THAN TWO MILES AWAY. THIS IS NOT AN UNUSUAL EVENT FOR THIS MODEL, AS REPORTED BY THE DEALER AND ALSO ACCORDING TO CONSUMER COMPLAINT DATABASES. THE PROBLEM WAS A BROKEN SERPENTINE BELT AND PRETENSIONER. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY THREAT, SINCE ONE CAN ABRUPTLY LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR WHEN THAT BELT BREAKS. PLEASE LOOK INTO IT. THANK YOU.

NHTSA complaint #735226 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST:PUMP

AT 20K AND 40K MILES I EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF STEERING WHEN CORNERING ON WET PAVEMENT. THE STEERING WOULD SEIZE WHILE IN THE TURN SO I WAS NOT ALLOWED TO STRAIGHTEN THE WHEELS. FORTUNATELY I WAS NOT IN A HIGH TRAFFIC AREA WHEN THIS OCCURED AND I WAS ABLE TO AVOID A COLLISION. ON BOTH INSTANCES I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO MY CHRYSLER DEALER. THEY INITIALLY REPLACED THE TENSIONER WHICH DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. WHEN THEY REPLACED THE POWER STEERING BELT IT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM FOR 20K MILES. AT 40K MILES THEY ONCE AGAIN REPLACED THE TENSIONER THINKING IT WOULD CURE THE PROBLEM BUT THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE THE BELT AGAIN AS WELL. NOW I EXPECT TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM EVERY 20K MILES AS IT SEEMS TO BE A DESIGN PROBLEM. THE POWER STEERING UNIT IS LOCATED BESIDE THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL AND APPEARS TO BE PRONE TO WATER PROBLEMS. WHEN I ASKED CHRYSLER WHO WAS GOING TO PAY FOR THESE REPAIRS EVERY 20K MILES FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO MY DEALER AND HE WOULD TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION MILEAGE AND WARRANTY TO MAKE THAT DECISION. THEY IMPLIED THAT I AM THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. I FEEL IT IS A DESIGN PROBLEM. IF THIS IS THE CASE THEN I CERTAINLY SHOULDN'T BE THE ONLY PERSON EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES.

STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM

AS I WAS ABOUT TO TURN A CORNER I HEARD A SNAPPING NOISE AND I WAS UNABLE TO TURN. THE STEERING WHEEL FELT LIKE IT HAD LOCKED. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE TENSIONEER, DRIVE BELT AND POWER STEERING PULLEY HAD ALL COME APART. I LOOKED AT THE PARTS AND SAW A SHEARED BOLT ABOUT 5/16" IN THE ASSEMBLY. SHOULD THE WHOLE SYSTEM BE DEPENDENT ON SUCH A SMALL BOLT? IS A CARS STEERING SUPPOSED TO FAIL AT 74156 MILES? IT WAS A VERY FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE. I THINK THE STEERING SHOULD BE SOMEHOW MECHANICALLY ASSISTED SO THAT WHEN IT FAILS IT SHOULD BE EASIER TO STEER THE CAR TO A SAFE PLACE OUT OF TRAFFIC.

IN MY OPINION THE CLOCK SPRING FAILED DUE TO IMPROPER STRESS RELIEF. A PICTURE OF THE FAILED CLOCK SPRING CAN BE SEEN AT HTTP://HOME1.GTE.NET/JMOGENS1/CLOCKSPRING/MVC00113.JPG I HAVE OTHER PICTURES AT THAT SITE OF THE DISASSEMBLED CLCOK SPRING. NOTE THE BEND WHERE THE CONDUCTORS BROKE NEAR THE POINT WHERE THE RIBBON CABLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER STRESS RELIEVED.
