Owners have filed 204 complaints
about the 1989 Plymouth Voyager with NHTSA between 1995 and 2012.
The largest single group is the doors, latches & locks.
NHTSA files every complaint against a named sub-assembly, not just a
system. This is the difference between knowing it was "the engine" and
knowing which part of it — the list to hand a mechanic.

When owners complained
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single
owner can see from inside their own car.

NHTSA investigations into the 1989 Plymouth Voyager
An investigation is the step before a recall: the agency has seen enough
complaints to look into a pattern itself. An open one means it thinks
something may be wrong and nothing has been fixed yet.

Recalls on the 1989 Plymouth Voyager
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which
the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous
enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

STEERING
WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS OF A 1998 PLYMOUTH VOYAGER. FOR THE MOST PART, WE HAVE LOVED THIS VEHICLE. UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THE SERPENTINE BELT FALLING OFF WHENEVER IT RAINS. WE MOVED TO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO, SINCE THIS MOVE, THE BELT HAS FALLEN OFF THREE TIMES. WE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE BECAUSE WE LIVED IN AN AREA THAT DID NOT RECEIVE MUCH RAIN DURING THE YEAR. WE TAKE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR AND ARE TOLD THIS SHOULDNT BE HAPPENING. OF COURSE, WE ARE CHARGED TO PUT THE BELT BACK ON THE CAR. WE AND OTHERS (OBVIOUSLY FROM THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE AND OTHERS) BELIEVE THIS IS A CAR DEFECT THAT DODGE/CHRYSLER SHOULD BE AWARE OF OR ARE AWARE BUT IGNORING THE PROBLEM. WE FOUND OUT THAT A KIT IS AVAILABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. FOR ONLY $500 WE CAN GET THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED. IT SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM TO BEGIN WITH. ALSO, MANY PEOPLE HAVE INDICATED THAT SOMEONE COULD BE KILLED IF THE BELT FALLS OFF SINCE THE POWER STEERING AND SEVERAL OTHER FUNCTIONS BECOME DISABLED. I GUESS SOMEONE HAS TO BE INJURED OR WORSE FOR THE CAR COMPANY TO ADMIT TO THE PROBLEM.
