Our powersteering hose blew 2 times. The 1st was when the vehiclie was not even 1 year old in the middle of winter. The 2nd was a 2nd recall and the dealer replaced the hose when it was working fine. That 2nd hose blew the very next day just before I was going out of town. Just wanted to gripe about this since I was already complaining about my AC.
Driving down the road and all of a sudden I have no power steering. Took to Dealership and they said the return hose on the power steering pump needed to be replaced. Didn't have the part, but they got it the next day.
This is the 5th time this has happened on this vehicle, I have owned for not quite 2 years. I pay alot of money for a vehicle that is not reliable. All that the dealership can say is "sorry, we knew this was a problem but manufacture has not figured out how to fix it!" How about I'm buying a Ford, Toyota Honda anything but a dodge next time. Oh anyone want to buy a dodge caravan, I've got 1 for sale!
Dodge dealership says there are 285 backorder for the replacement of the power steering return line. Could take a month to replace waiting for the part to arrive. Cant drive in meantime. Dodge service sucks.
