The consumer stated that the windshield wipers worked intermittently, and sometimes would not shut off. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer, and was told that the problem was due to the power distribution center of the vehicle which was malfunctioning. To repair vehicle would cost approximately $700. The wiper problem would occur at startup, while turning and or while in motion. The transmission would become a problem as well.

- Marion, IA, USA

While driving the vehicle at 45 mph, transmission failed without any warning at 70,000. Vehicle was taken to the independent shop who determined the transmission leaked fluid. The mechanic determined that the transmission had to be replaced at the owner expense of $2.800. The vehicle has not been repair due to the cost of replacing the transmission. The consumer request financial assistance to have the vehicle repaired.

My wife was driving our kids on the highway at 65 mph when the van suddenly shifted into second gear. This nearly caused a huge accident. I then find that the transmission needed replacement. I researched this problem and found that this is not a unique problem by any means. Chrysler is aware of this problem, and has not made any significant changes to their transmission. This "safe mode" where the transmission goes to second gear is made to allow the driver to drive to a safe place. If Chrysler can't make a more durable transmission, they should be able to at least make the "safe mode" go to nuetral instead of second gear at high speeds. On a more sad note, $2,400 later for a rebuilt transmission(the best price I could find), I found out the the van isn't worth much more than that anyway. Too bad, because I actually like the van and how it works for our family. I will have to go to another brand after this one completely dies.

While shifting from park to drive vehicle did not move. Consumer had vehicle parked for two months, and stated that the vehicle would be towed in the near future to the dealer for analysis.

Automatic transmission has failed and had to be replaced three times in one year. The last time the service shop blamed the failure on the crank shaft damaged the transmission thus causing it to break.

- Jonesborough, TN, USA

While driving, a loud noise was heard and the vehicle stalled. Vehicle was towed to a transmission repair shop, where the transmission was rebuilt, and two driveline axles were replaced.

- Franklin, WI, USA

While traveling at about 50 mph, the transmission failed with a very loud noise and dumped transmission fluid onto the roadway. Apparently, a pin in the differential had come loose and destroyed the housing and most internal components. Chrysler has charged me over $2500 for a replacement unit since they will not take the old unit as a core. this should not happen with only 70,000 miles on the car. Chrysler needs to recall these units and admit they have a serious problem with this vehicle.

- Deland, FL, USA

Purchased Voyager 2 yrs ago, dealer showed us he had rebuilt transmission 2 months earlier. After 2 years, I have replaced radiator, "cooling fan relay" X2, the transmission was rebuilt again, the cv joint broke and cracked the transmission case (after it was rebuilt), the radio went out, the ac is completely gone estimated @ $1800 to repair. Brakes are grabbing and/or soft. Is this a "lemon"?

While driving down the interstate doing about 70 mph I heard a loud noise. Looked at speedometer and it registered 0. I had no power. Barely managed to get van off the road. Got out and looked under it, there was transmission fluid everywhere. Had it checked out by personal mechanic. He then told me that there have been numerous complaints about this year of Plymouth Grand Voyager. I only have 86,000 miles on it. Also the sliding door locks have failed, windshield washers have failed, A/C has failed, not to mention the airbag light, fuel line and all of the numerous other recalls it has had on it.

- Dry Ridge , KY, USA

Without any indication, the vehicle started to buck back and forward. The engine lost power, and did not move more than 10 mph.

- Meriden, CT, USA

I have many of the same problems listed in the other 72 Grand Voyager complaints. First the driver side drive shaft failed, which is unheard of and clearly a defective part. A few weeks later the transmission failed. In the process of self destruction, an internal piece of the transmission produce a large hole in the transmission housing. It is not uncommon for the housing to be damaged when the transmission fails. In fact, due to demand, Chrysler is now charging almost as much for the housing as they are for the rebuilt transmission. Due to the large number of defective vans on the market, Chrysler is resisting a recall and any assistance. After all daimler/ Chrysler has much larger unethical issues to deal with, such as a federal investigation into price fixing. The $7.50/ hr. Minions on the help line are worthless. The only hope we have is to get the NHTSA to recall these rolling pieces of garbage, and to stop buying Chrysler product.

Transmission had to be replaced because pump in transmission stopped working and vehicle was difficult to put into gear. Contacted dealer.

- Martinaze, GA, USA

Originally noted the reverse gear had a delay when purchased new, but was told it was normal. While driving home from airport car slowed and appeared to lack power (clutch slippage), 2 miles later upon deceleration and accecleration heard a grinding sound and noted a sluggish forward motion. Made it back to home and shut car down (nite time). Restarted car in morning and noted that car would not back out of garage, also tried putting car in nuetral, but care would not move (appears to be stuck in a gear). Vehicle currently unmovable. Contacted manufacture and requested assistance with parts (I would pay for labor), but the reps (more than one) I talked with said that they decline to provide any assistance. They also told me that their word was final and that it would be useless to ask to talk to anyone else. Since I am in the military they refered me to military sales and service (they said that I might try arbritration). Whatever happened to good faith and loyalty to customers.
