| Had problems with my 86 van, more with the 93 van and expecting more with my 98 van i must be nuts to have purchased the 98 van. the abs brakes in 1993 van failed and i was able to stop before i ran the light, a few days later they came back on out of nowhere. i do not feel i should be driving a car that i can not trust the brakes.*ak | |||

| This is the second replacement transmission installed in this vehicle. i am the original owner and have followed the maintanence schedule. these transmission failures are going to cause a severe rear end type accident soon if chrysler is not held responsible for a defective product. *ak | |||

| Air conditioner won't work, have talked to many people with caravans with the same problem. also, have seen a large number of vehicles with the paint chipping. the previous owner told us at the time that we purchased that there was supposed to be some type of recourse on the paint on the caravan. i have only seen this problem on the 1993's and earlier models. we own a 1994, same color, driftwood, and have had no problems whatsoever with air or paint. | |||

| I brought my veh.in twice within 2 years,as my air conditioner wasn't working properly.both times i was told it was ok even though the 2nd time they had to add 1 lb. of 134-a.3 years later in 1998 it totally quit.i took it elsewhere and was told the evaporator was leaking.i contacted chrysler and they refused to fix it.i beleive they are installing defective evaporators as my sister-in-laws 93 voyager had hers replaced,a friends 92 voyager had theirs replaced,and a bus company i worked for had 3 voyagers that had to be repaired because of leaks within 2 years.i don't know if this stuff is poisonous but i have been breathing it for 5 years now. | |||

| Evaporator began leaking coolant last spring; this is a non moving part that should last for many, years; it is believed that the coolant used r134 is corrosive to the material that chrysler used to manufacture the evaporators; there are hundreds of complaints about this problem on the internet. | |||
