Consumer Description

I HAVE A 1999 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN THAT THE SERPENTINE BELT HAS COME OFF OF NUMEROUS TIMES, BECAUSE OF A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. WHENEVER THE TENSION WHEEL GETS SPLASHED WITH WATER THE BELT POPS OFF. YOU IMMEDIATELY LOSE POWER STEERING, IT IS SO DANGEROUS!! THE CAR OVERHEATS. I HAVE TALKED TO MANY MECHANICS AND THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THAT PARTICULAR VEHICLE. I HAVE SPENT MUCH MONEY TO HAVE IT FIXED AND NOT TO MENTION THE STRESS. I HAVE ALSO RESEARCHED THIS ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THEY HAVE RECALLED THESE VEHICLES IN BRAZIL BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
