TAKATA RECALL I OWN A 2002 CHRYSLER VOYAGER MINIVAN. AT ABOUT 85,000 MILES I NOTICED THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WAS COMING ON SPORADICALLY. EVENTUALLY IT STARTED REMAINING ON ALL THE TIME FROM THE MOMENT I STARTED THE IGNITION. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER TO HAVE IT INSPECTED. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE CLOCK SPRING AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND WOULD COST ME ABOUT $350. EARLIER REPRODUCTIONS OF THIS MODEL HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR PROBLEMS WITH CLOCK SPRINGS BUT MINE IS NOT BECAUSE IT WAS MANUFACTURED TWO YEARS TOO LATE.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE SENSOR SWITCH WAS DEFECTIVE.

I HAVE 2 ISSUES WITH MY 2002 CHRYSLER VOYAGER. THE FIRST IS THE AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHES ON AND OFF. I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AND INFORMED THEM THAT I WAS AWARE OF THE RECALLS ON THE EARLY MODELS. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL AND THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED AND ON MY WAY HOME FROM THE DEALER IT STARTED AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK THE NEXT DAY AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS WHAT I SUSPECTED BUT IT WOULD COST ME MORE MONEY.(NOW MIND YOU I HAD TOLD THEM WHAT I THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS). THEREFORE IT IS NOT FIXED AND I WAS TOLD THAT AS LONG AS THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS OFF IT WOULD DEPLOY IF IT IS ON IT WILL NOT. THE SECOND ISSUE IS THE RUST! THERE IS A HUGE RUST SPOT ON THE REAR HATCH AND MORE BUBBLES FORMING. THE HOOD IS RUSTING ALSO! *JB
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM, BUT REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELT IN AN ATTEMPT TO REPAIR. A WEEK LATER, THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE A PROBLEM.
