| I am having a problem with the a/c, heater switching to blow out through the defrost when accelerating or under load causing poor cooling/heating. i talked to chrysler and they said it would cost to figure out what is causing it to switch. i have had the compressor replaced while it was under warranty because it was leaking. i had to replace the cooling fan after warranty. it failed again almost a year later. but the part was replaced with only installation cost. i would be interested in knowing what other things can be done to solve the problem of switching to defrost. sincerely dwayne c. abbott | |||

| This van has had the air conditioner go out at least 3 of the 6 years that i have owned it. now, the abs completely went out almost causing a crash with several children in the van; the brakes are 90% gone! this van has been a lemon and is in need of repair every year. many other things have gone out top include the transmission. what concerns me most is that things like the air-conditioning go out every 1 to 2 years and my extended warranty expires in march of next year. is there anything i can do to get the the air-conditioning replaced entirely due to it always failing? also, i am not sure if my vehicle is fuel injected or not. brian pabst 1614 hall street downers grove, il. 60516 | |||
