Consumer Description

2000 DODGE CARAVAN 3.0 (40K MILES) REPLACING THE DRIVE BELT &/R IDLE / TENSIONER EVERY (2) YEARS. BELT P/N (GOOD YEAR) 460805 / 6PK2045. TENSIONER MOPAR 04536154AD. THE DEALER JUST SMILES, THIS DOES NOT SEEMS TO BE VERY RELIABLE. ANY OTHER TYPE COMPLAINTS FILES WITH THIS TYPE UNIT????? I REPLACED THE BELT ON SEPT 2003, THE DEALER DID THE TENSIONER & BELT @31K IN 2005. I AGAIN DID THE BELT ON 03/31/07. THE DEALER DID THE TENSIONER @44K , 05/02/2007. THIS IS MY DAUGHTERS VAN, A SCHOOL TEACHER, DRIVE TO & FROM SCHOOLS FOR THE MOST PART I HAVE THROUGH LAST TENSIONER & THE BELTS THAT I DID. SO IF SHE OR I PLANS TO GO ON A TRIP, WE MUST EITHER REPLACE THE TENSIONER & DRIVE BELT OR CARRY ONE WITH US. NOW ON MY 2001 CARAVAN WITH OVER 60K I STILL HAVE THE SOME TENSIONER & DRIVE BELT. DUH??????? I NEED HELP WITH THIS. THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING. *JB
