problem #2

Jul 022002

Caravan 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 80,000 miles
I recently became aware of your services so that is why this is written way after the fact. May problem is that I own a 97 Dodge Caravan, at the time it had appox. 80,000 miles. The front passenger side wheel well that holds the strat rotted to the point that the strat was coming through. I called Dodge and they said that part of the body wasn't warranted against rust through. I thought it was odd that the doors and hood was but not the under part. I had the repairs done for $900 and now the driver side is about to do the same. What is ironic is that the body ie doors and quarter panels are fine. Is there a problem with this particular part of the car and if so do I have any recourse. Thank you for your time.
