NHTSA Complaint #10462106 — 2006 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN

AIR CONDITIONING FAILED AROUND 50,000 MILES. HAD SYSTEM RECHARGED AND STARTED TO FAIL AGAIN IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS. BY THAT TIME, WEATHER STARTED TO BECOME COLD. BY 80,000 MILES (FOLLOWING SUMMER), TOLD THAT THE REAR AIR EVAPORATOR PART WAS LEAKING AND WHILE DODGE DID NOT "RECALL" THE PART, THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANT TO I THINK - 75,000 MILES. THE PART TOOK ABOUT 2 MONTHS TO COME IN AND COST OVER $1,600 TO INSTALL. I WAS NEVER GIVEN NOTICE OF THE "EXTENDED WARRANTY." DRIVER SIDE AUTOMATIC DOOR NO LONGER WORKS FOR THE SECOND TIME (FIRST AROUND 50,000 SECOND TIME AROUND 75,000). RACK AND PINION NEEDED REPLACEMENT AROUND 90,000 MILES. THAT COST AROUND $1,500. FUEL GAUGE IS ABOUT 1/4 TANK OFF IN THE BAD DIRECTION. CAN NO LONGER TRUST GAUGE UNDER HALF A TANK. PAINT STARTED TO PEEL AND METAL UNDERNEATH RUST AROUND 50,000 MILES. *TR
