1. the rear hatch leaked upon delivery. Three attempts were made to put some king of sealant on the exterior to prevent leakage. Some water damage to interior was never fixed. 2. air bag light on due to clock spring failure. Waited for almost two years for Chrysler to issue recall while problem was being investigated by NHTSA. 3. transmission failure at 115,800km. Estimated $1,800 to repair at transmission shop.

The air bag warning light comes on intermittently. According to the information given to me by a local chyrsler dealer, this problem is typically caused by a faulty clock spring, and the driver's side air bag will not deploy when the warning light is on. The clock spring was replaced once under warranty on June 6, 1997, at 7922 miles. My complaint at that time was a crunching sound that came from the area of the steering column, when the steering wheel was turned in either direction.

problem #29

The manufacturer's assembly located in the steering column, refered to as the "clockspring" is defective- causing the following problems: (1) a false airbag warning lamp, (2) un-commanded windshield wiper operation, and (3) intermittant operation (on/off) of the cruise control system. Horn failure is also a known symptom of a defective "clockspring". I believe all of the above symptoms can be classified as a safety issue and it should be the responsibility of the manufacture (chysler corporation) to replace the defective component at their cost.
