| I've owned this vehicle since november 2000 and i've taken it to the dealership on several different occasions for the constant squeaking in the brakes. i was told every time that the brakes were fine, but the noise still continues. have there been any complaints or recalls on the brake system for these vehicles. so far there have been no accidents or fatalities. however, i do believe that there is more to the noise in the brakes than just the fact that the pads have metal in them, which is what the dealership says to me every time i take it in for service. my other chief complaint is that the van had a chrysler name plate on it, but it wasn't a caravan it turned out to be a plymouth voyager. is that legal? had i known that it was a plymouth i never would have purchased it. *nlm | |||

| When driving my van the dash check engine light comes on, the brake warning light comes on, and the abs light comes on. when stopping at a red light the rpm, odometer, and fuel gauges drop off as if you have shut the car off. these gauges will not come back on until after you have taken off and reached speeds of 10 to 25 mph. intermidentally the gauges including the speedometer will quit at various speeds and will not come back on until basically it gets ready to you never know 1 minute or 5 minutes. i am concerned about driving this vehicle because i don't know when these lights are coming on because of this problem or if they are on because they have a valid reason to be on. i have taken the vehicle to the frank fletcher dodge for repair and they changed a computer the 2nd time and told me they can't duplicate the problem for most of the isues. i take them for a drive and the problem is still there. i have not been able to get chrysler to show any real concern other than tell me i should be patient with electrical problems. my patience has expired and i am worried about driving an unsafe car. if you could please help me i would appreciate it.*ak | |||

| While driving down a steep hill the brakes went to the floor and the red no brake light came on. i was going around 30 miles an hour and luckily was in the country. i drove into a farmers field and put on the emergency brake. the dealership replaced the brake equipment including the master cylinder even though nothing was showing on their computer. a few days later i was driving home from work and came to a stop sign, put on brakes and they went to the floor again. i hit the vehicle in front of me. this problem doesn't occur all the time and they are not able to recreate the problem. i am waiting to see what happens with this from the dealer and their insurance co. i will also most likely file a complaint with daimler-chrysler. this vehicle was a lemon buy back for braking problems that were supposedly fixed in 2000.*jb | |||
