THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE SHE WAS INFORMED THE ENTIRE AIR BAG SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT THE SALT ON THE ROAD CONTRIBUTED TO THE FAILURE AND THAT THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A COATING THAT WOULD PREVENT THE SALT FROM DAMAGING THE VEHICLE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 130,000.

I FEEL GOOD NOW THAT COMPANIES ARE REPAIRING THEIR DEFECTIVE AUTOMOBILES, A PROCESS THAT SAVES CONSUMER LIVES AND MONEY. ONE WOULD ASSUME THAT REGULATORS ARE CONTROLLING THE AUTOMOBILE COMPANIES AND PROTECTING THE PUBLIC, BUT THIS ASSUMPTION IS NOT TRUE. THE PUBLIC SPENDS BILLIONS ON DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS THAT DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION DOES LITTLE ABOUT DEFECTIVE AMERICAN CARS. MY POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKED OUT OF MY CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. I ENTERED CHRYSLER POWER STEERING PROBLEMS AND RECEIVED 6,480,000 RESPONSES. THEN I REALIZED THAT CHRYSLER IS UNABLE TO PRODUCE A WORKABLE POWER STEERING SYSTEM, OR THEY PLAN FOR IT TO FAIL. I BELIEVE THEIR POWER STEERING SYSTEM HAS BEEN A COMPONENT OF THEIR PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE FOR THE LAST QUARTER OF A CENTURY. I OWNED A 1987 CHRYSLER FIFTH AVENUE AND THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM FAILED IN THAT CAR. WHY MUST CONSUMERS PAY FOR AUTO MAKERS' INCOMPETENCE OR PLANNED BREAKDOWNS? WE LOSE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR WHILE REGULATORS DRAW PAY FOR IGNORING LARCENY AND KEEPING SEATS WARM. *TR

BRAKE LINES RUSTING. I HAD A 94 VAN THAT WAS TOTALED BECAUSE THE BRAKE LINES BURST DURING A PANIC STOP. MY SON WAS DRIVING THE VAN AND A TRUCK WENT THROUGH A RED LIGHT. MY SON SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND NOTHING. THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR; THE VAN ROLLED DOWN A RAVINE INTO A GUARD RAIL AND TOTALED THE VAN. THE LEFT STRUT HOUSING WAS RIPPED OFF. AT THE TIME I WAS SUSPICIOUS OF WHAT HAPPENED, I THOUGHT THE BRAKES COULD HAVE BEEN PUMPED TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN, MY SON SAID HE TRIED TO PUMP THE BRAKES BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. THE CRITICAL ISSUE HERE IS A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE BRAKES, WHICH I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND. EVERYONE ON THIS BOARD THAT HAD THE LINES RUPTURE MENTIONED A COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE BRAKES. THE VAN WAS TOWED HOME AND UPON INSPECTING A 3' PIECE OF BRAKE TUBING WAS MISSING FROM THE LEFT REAR WHEEL, THE REST OF THE LINES WAS BADLY RUSTED. I HAVE OWNED TWO 1991 VANS 218K, 198K WHEN THEY WERE SOLD FOR $25 EACH ONE 1994 VAN 170K WAS SCRAPPED I PRESENTLY OWN TWO 2001 VANS 150K, 177K I RECENTLY LOOKED AT BOTH MY 2001 VANS AND THE BRAKE LINES ARE BADLY RUSTED. I WAS QUOTED PART PRICES FOR THE TWO LINES THAT GO TO THE REAR BRAKE CALIPERS. 68031823AA LEFT REAR BRAKE LINE $227.49 4683792AD RIGHT REAR BRAKE $329.12 I DEFINITELY FEEL THERE IS A SERIOUS DESIGN ISSUE WITH THE MATERIAL THE BRAKE LINES ARE MADE OF. I WOULD HAVE NEVER EXPECTED A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. CAN ANYONE HELP ME FIND THESE PARTS AT A REASONABLE PRICE? SHOULD ALL OF THE LIES BE REPLACED? WHAT DID OTHERS HAVE TO PAY FOR THE DEALER TO FIX THE PROBLEM? THANKS MANY OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THIS MESSAGE BOARD: HTTP://FORUM.CHRYSLERMINIVAN.NET/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=2620&PAGE=12. *TR
