I have experienced 2 failures of the accessory drive belt tensioner on my 1995 Plymouth Voyager. The first failure occurred while I was operating the vehicle at about 10 mph. The belt tensioner assembly broke away from the mounting resulting in the loss of my power steering and nearly causing an accident. I had the vehicle towed to the dealer and a new belt tensioner put in. The service man told me that they had seen a lot of these belt tensioner failures. Recently, during a service visit to replace the faulty airbag on the vehicle, the service people reported that the belt tensioner was again "frozen" and needed to be replaced. When I asked whether they would replace the part for free, they told me to call Chrysler customer service. I called Chrysler customer service and they told me that they could not do anything for me, and that Chrysler did not consider this problem to be a safety problem. I consider this a serious safety problem. It certainly was a safety issue when it failed on my vehicle the first time, and I could barely steer the vehicle. I have also seen at least one other near accident due to the same belt tensioner problem on anothe vehicle. I believe that this is a chronic problem with this vehicle and needs to be investigated.
