SINCE WE HAD THE ELECTRICAL RECALL 11V139000. WE HAVE 3 PROBLEMS SINCE THE RECALL. . FIRST. THE RADIO WOULD NOT WORK AND NOT TURN OFF. IT WAS JUST STUCK ON THE "ACCEPT DISPLAY. THE DEALER FIXED THAT AND SAID THAT IT WAS RELATED TO THE RECALL. THIS PAST WEEK WE HAD TWO FAILURES. THE FIRST FAILURE, THE WIPERS WOULD NOT TURN OFF, HEATED SEATS DID NOT WORK, TURN SIGNALS DIDN'T WORK AND THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS DIDN'T RESPOND. THE DEALER FIXED THAT AND SAID THAT THERE WAS MOISTURE IN THE HEATED SEATS ELEMENT. LAST NIGHT, THE RADIO AND THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS STOPPED RESPONDING WE HAVE TO BRING THE VAN IN AGAIN TODAY. TWO MALFUNCTIONS IN LESS THAN A WEEK NOT GOOD. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I HAVE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION WITH CHRYSLER REMANUFACTURED UNITS TWICE IN 11 MONTHS. THE UNITS WERE OVER THEIR 12,000 MILES/12 MONTH WARRANTY. I KNOW THAT CHRYSLER GIVES SUCH A LOW WARRANTY BECAUSE THEIR TRANSMISSIONS AREN'T LASTING. EVERY TRANSMISSION SHOP THAT I SPOKE WITH KNOWS THE UNIT # IN THEIR HEAD AND CLAIMS THAT THEY WILLN'T REBUILD THEM BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THEM. THE ONLY WAY THAT THEY WILL WORK ON THEM IS TO REPLACE THEM WITH THE FACTORY REMANUFACTURED UNITS. MY ORIGINAL TRANS WENT OUT AT 52K , THEN THE REPLACEMENT UNIT WENT OUT AT 92K ( WAS SERVICED AT 77K). DON'T YOU FEEL THAT A MAJOR PART OF A VEHICLE LIKE THE TRANS SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN 40 TO 50K MILES? ANY HELP THAT YOU CAN ASSIST ME WITH WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU, DERF MARTIN
