This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The wipers have an int. Problem. It sounds just like the one in bulletin # 98V150000. I see there that it covers the trucks and not the vans. Also the a\C clutch has some diagonal bands on the front, they broke away from the center and opened up like flail knives and cut every belt, hose, and wire near the clutch until one of the bands broke off and went flying around under the hood causing alot of dammage and a big mess. My a\C has never worked right since. Sorry about the VIN I do not have access to the van at this time, if you would need it at a latter time I could get it. I do not wish to give my dealers name because they have treated me well its just that their hands are tied.
Plume of smoke comes out of control panel were the heater switch is. The area around the switch gets real hot. As for the windshield wipers they stay on when I shut them off. Then it takes a few minutes for them to turn off. The air-conditioner sometimes gets cold and other times it bairly gets cold. The sliding door gets stuck.
Air conditioner has had numerous problems since the vehicle was purchased, it has been in 6 different times for not working properly such as air cutting on and off. Now the compressor has gone out completely. The vehicle has been in for service twice for the same problem with the brakes loud roaring sound when applying the brakes.
