| Tl-the contact owns a 1997 chrysler town and country. while driving approximately 55 mph in rainy conditions the steering wheel became stiff and difficult to turn. the defroster stopped functioning and the contact experienced an increased stopping distance when he applied the brakes. the vehicle was pulled over and the contact noticed the serpentine belt was detached. the contact attached the serpentine belt and continued driving. the failure has since recurred 3 times during rainy conditions. after each failure the contact attaches the serpentine belt himself. the vehicle was not taken to have the failure diagnosed. the failure mileage was 185,000 and the current mileage was 187,000. sm. | |||

| The most recent brake failure was the most potentially deadly. without warning, we had total brake failure due to rear wheel cylinders seizing up. we contacted chrysler, offered to send them the defective parts. after numerous calls to customer service and the recall center, we were told chrysler was not interested. chrysler contacts were very rude. we pulled up a recall from nhtsa id number 96v215000. our concern was the remark in the corrective summary. the master cylinders in 1997 minivans made in st. louis were defective. our minivan was manufactured in st. louis. according to chrysler recall center, the recall was on vehicles with traction control. we have traction control. people at customer service will not talk to us about the recall notice to help us. our van is handicap accessible. safety for our family and out disabled son is of utmost concern. since chrysler is no help, who is? | |||

| Somewhere between 82,000 & 86,000 miles, my engine began making a ticking sound. since i was due for an oil change, i took the van in to a nearby shop for an oil change. the first thing the mechanic called me about was an oil leak...he thought the head gasket was blown and was calling for my authorization. when he removed the valve cover, he called back to inform me that i had a broken head. somehow, one of the stanchions that holds the rocker arm assembly had broken off and the rocker arm next to that stanchion was loose and causing the clicking sound. neither he nor i had never heard of that type of part failure and i went to the shop to see what he had found. the stanchion was broken through about 1/4 inch below the rocker arm. in my mind, since a head is a solid block of cast aluminum, this was not a part that should wear out or have to be replaced. the engine had never overheated, et cetera. in quoting the repair estimate, the mechanic informed me that since the head was broken, in addition to the cost of purchasing a reconditioned head, i would also have to pay a $200.00 core charge since my broken head could not be exchanged and reconditioned. to my way of thinking, since the head shouldn't have broken in such a manner anyway, the core charge was unfair. my belief was that this is either a casting or design flaw and regardless of the fact that i was 16,000 miles over the warranty, this type of breakage should not have happened. i then went to the dodge dealership service department to see if chrysler corp. was helping consumers with this type of problem. he then put me in touch with the service manager. i learned a few more things from the service manager. first, since my vehicle was out of warranty, he was certain that chrysler would not help in any way with the repairs. when they recondition the heads, they now insert a shaft through the stanchions to provide additional strength to prevent these breaks. | |||

| Windshield wipers will not operate in cool damp weather (25-45 degrees f with high humidity). they cannot be controlled- sometimes operating for 10 minutes without being able to turn them off, sometimes they go into delay mode by themselves, and sometimes will not even turn on. this has been going on since we bought the vehicle in 2002. the same problem occured with our 1997 dodge intrepid es which we sold in 2002 due to it being an electrical nightmare, a lemon from the factory. though purchased new, the dealer would not make any effort to having the car replaced though we suffered through 3 years of warranty repairs for the same problem. anyway, i digress... | |||

| Van engine dies at any time without any sputtering or warning, like someone turned off the ignition. will start right up again as soon as i put transmission in neutral and turn key. often when driving the engine will jerk real hard like i just drove over a speed bump, but engine does not kill. the engine light flashes for a second. dealer says nothing shows on computer so theres nothing he can do. chrysler in detroit was called and said the same thing. they were no help at all. i have almost been hit from behind several times due to this problem. i see others have had the same problem posted also. happens about once every two weeks or so. it seems if the dealers computer doesn't give them a code they are lost and can't do anything to help. it's a very frustrating and dangerous situation to be in! | |||

| When your serpentine belt breaks, is replaced because of damage or wear or just falls off the pulleys when you go through water puddles... then you must replace the belt tensioner as well as the belt to reduce future problems... i have a 1997 t & c and have just recently replaced the belt tensioner of the 2nd time... not hard or expensive.... must do about every 3 to 4 years... the tensioners wears out. *tr | |||

| While driving in the rain, not standing water or high water, my 97 chrysler town and country started overheating. not knowing what was wrong, i pulled over and let it cool off and attempted to restart my trip. this continued every 1/2 mile and finally i had no power steering. trying to get to a filling station, it finally just died. after having it towed, staying in a hotel and taking a cab to work, the mechanic told me my serpentine belt just came off. he replaced it. he stated that this has been known to be happening with these vans and for additional money and labor costs i could have a kit installed and will hopefully prevent this problem from continually happening. the kit he spoke about was a belt that is ribbed on both sides and replacement of a pulley. if this is a known problem then chrysler should recall and replace this free of charge. *jb | |||

| Last december 2004 while driving, my steering wheel locked up and i was unable to make a turn. i looked under hood and found s belt had slipped off. i was able to have it fixed. i do not know what caused this. today 5/9, again, the belt came off as my sister was about to go down an incline. should she have been in the process of descending, she would have had an accident, because of a sharp turn in the road. at the repair shop i was told that there is a problem that exist with the tensioner in this vehicle, and that it slips off when it rains or if water gets into it. in order to put the vehicle in use i've had to have it repaired. from the complaints i've read, this should be made into a recall issue, and those who've had to make repairs and replace belts, should be reimbursed by the manufacturer. | |||

| I had the belt replaced on my 1997 chrysler town & country to avoid a breakage. since that time, the belt has come off twice allegedly due to water/rain. i live in new orleans & have been in alot more rain over the last 6 years and never had a problem. the first time, they just put the belt back on, the last time, i was charged an extra $50 for a better belt, but was also told of an advisory that chrysler issued 7-2-99 indicating this problem and that a bracket could be used to fix the problem. the local dealership advised that this would cost another $260 to fix a problem that never existed before i had the belt replaced. i feel that chrysler knows that there is a problem with their new belts, but because my van is older, they are unwilling to foot the bill to fix it and they are jeopardizing my safety and everyone else's by not doing so. i am now afraid to drive my van during or after a rain.*ak | |||
