Our family is a second generation consumer of the Chrysler coporation's products. This vehicle has proven such a lemon, we really doubt that we will ever buy another chrylser/Dodge product. Within a month of our purchase, we had a recall on the liftgate latch, that was fixed. We are currently having our transmission inspected by a licensed Chrysler dealer, and will submit to the corporation. We have had the seat belts not retract on the driver's and passengers side for years, which catch in the doors constantly. The power windows in the rear had a motor go out, the universal joint fell off while the car was sitting in the drive, and the most ungodly act was when someone was closing the sliding passenger door, and it totally slid off the car. Luckily, no one was injured. The airconditioning was about 2 years old when it died, and the company replaced that underwarranty, along with the universal joint. The sliding door cost us a fortune, and the company only gave us $122. I wish that I could turn back the hands of time, and have bought the Windstar instead of this esxpensive lemon.
Automatic door locking system design inadequate, causing consumer's baby to be locked in the vehicle because consumer forgot to push the unlock button.this condition causes difficulty for consumer to remember whenever needs to leave vehicle.keys are also left in vehicle, and the door closes enough, but not completely. The system would lock all doors. Dealer will be contacted.
The right front door slammed shut on a child's leg because the weldings that held the door in place broke due to faulty workmanship of the manufacturer.
