| Eveporator on air conditioner needs to be replaced. must be a common place problem with these vans. i've heard of many people with the same problem. ive talked with dobbs in st. louis and greiners in waterloo, il. they both have told me of numerous eveporators that the yhave replaced. greiners in waterloo told me that there apparently was some kind of program that plymouth had set ups to fix this problem. do you know of any yjomh like this? | |||

| The molding on the rear window would melt and drip all along the sides. the van would die when waiting at a stop light during the summer months when the air conditioning unit was on. i would have to turn everything off, put in park and try to restart the engine. too many times we could have caused an accident not too mention the 100 + degrees we have here in the desert. the first time the van stalled out we had just started out from a red light, the van died as we were going throught the intersection. all power died and luckily i was able to coast over several lanes of rush hour traffic into a parking lot to try to restart the engine. it would always restart, however only with the air turned off along with the radio. we took the van to our own mechanic hoping the cost of repair would be lower. however after repeat stalling problems and finally no air conditioning at all we brought the van to the chrysler-plymouth dealer who took over from ed moses , jim click . the $659.17 we paid them to replace the evaporator coil & recharge the ac system is another yearly major defect we have had to repair. november of 1997 we paid $714.50 for the dealer to overhaul the transmission, flash the controller and flush the cooler. we did seek and received assistance from the chrysler corporation for that repair but for only half of the total repair cost. we also seeked assistance from again regarding the ac repair but were told that since we didn't use the dealer for repairing the original stalling problem that they wouldn't do anything for us. these are not isolated repair problems and we thank goodness that none of our children, ourselves and others haven't been seriously hurt or killed. the rear window that shattered was kept intact only because we had sun protective film installed. we thought we had been shot at as we were departing an amusement park in los angeles at night and were waiting to turn at an intersection. our twin 4 year old daughters were in the back | |||
