Had to replace the whole air conditioning system by an independent mechanic that only wanted the truck for half as much time and money. The evaporator coil under the dash failed and the evaporator drier also failed( it rusted out). I have talked to other truck owners with similar problems and I did call Chrysler and they never heard of the problem, kinda makes me wonder whats going on. Admittedly the truck is off warranty, but I've never had an air conditioning system that ever needed any attention and one is 12 years old. Any help with this situation would be greatly appreciated.

A/C motor blows out when going up a upgrade, and when going down. Took vehicle to dealer, and he had a vacuum switch put in, and it did not remedy the problem.

Engine completely fell apart and was replaced by northe star Dodge in san antonio. Air conditioner has relay problems. Transmission found to have clutch pieces in it by independant used car tester. All windows and doors have air leaks and rain leaks. Vehicle leaks water up throught he floor board when driving in rain. Vehicle also shudders dramatically when going over 40 mph. Carberator has choke problems and is hard to start. Most if not all of these problems were reported to Dodge within 10,000 miles of purchase but due to stalling techiches by fiesta Dodge nothing has ever been remedied.
