Consumer Description

CORRODED STRUT TOWER ON DRIVER'S SIDE 1999 DODGE CARAVAN. MECHANIC SAYS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR 1998-1999 MODEL YEARS. BULLETIN 23-044-02 DESCRIBES THE PROBLEM AS "COSMETIC." MECHANIC SAYS REPAIR (USING CHRYSLER REPAIR KIT) SHOULD RUN $350-450 USD. IF CHRYSLER IS AND HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS "SAFETY RELATED" ISSUE FOR SO LONG, WHY ARE THEY NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM FOR THE MANUFACTURER. *TR
