#10142721 | November 15, 2005

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON IN MY 2001 CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY. AT THE SAME TIME, THE CRUISE CONTROL BECAME INOPERABLE AND THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. WHEN WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, WE WERE TOLD THAT THE PROBLEMS WERE ALL RELATED TO THE ONBOARD COMPUTER AND THAT IT COULD TAKE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS JUST TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID SOME 2001'S WERE RECALLED BUT "NOT YOUR VIN #." ASKED IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG OR WHETHER IT WOULD DEPLOY, WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS NO WAY OF KNOWING WITHOUT DOING THE MAJOR DIAGNOSTICS. THEY REFUSED TO GIVE AN ESTIMATE OR A CEILING ON THE PRICE. THIS IS UNFAIR AND WE ARE WORRIED THAT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY AND THAT THERE MAY BE SIGNIFICANT INSTABILITY IN THE ON-BOARD COMPUTER WHICH COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM. *JB

CONSEQUENCES WERE THAT IF AN ACCIDENT HAD OCCURRED, THEN THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WOULD NOT HAVE DEPLOYED. FIX WAS TO REPLACE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG MODULE. *NM

#10016867 | May 1, 2003

AIR BAG ALERT LIGHT COMES ON REPEATEDLY WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN DOING SO THE AIR BAG IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL. THE DURATION OF THIS EVENT CAN BE FROM TEN SECONDS TO TWENTY MINUTES. HAVE TAKEN IT TO NUMEROUS CHRYSLER DEALERS WHO IN EACH INSTANCE STATE THAT THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE LOST AT A MINIMUM TWENTY DAYS OF TIME THAT THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR THIS COMPLAINT. THE MOST RECENT WAS VISIT (4/30-5/1/03) AND WERE TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS REPAIRED. NOT SO. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR WAS DRIVEN ON 5/1/03 THE LIGHT AGAIN CAME ON. MY CONCERN IS WITH THE DEALER'S ADVISORY THAT THE AIR BAG IS NOT FUNCTIONING WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON AND THIS COULD RESULT IN A CATASTROPHIC INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN INSPECTED FOR THIS PROBLEM REPEATEDLY AT VERGER CHRYSLER IN COOS BAY, OREGON AND FISHER CHRYSLER IN YUMA, ARIZONA.
