At approximately 58500 miles the head gasket on the engine failed. It was replaced under a purchased extended warrantee. I was not informed by anyone that Chrysler had a program in place to cover the cost of repairs though such a program existed. At 75419 miles the headgasket blew again. Only this time the head was cracked as well. I was charged over $1625 for the repairs eventhough it appears the original repairs were ineffective. After much discussion the car dealer warranteed the repairs for 36000 miles or 3 years. This offer was never made on the original repairs. Other problems with the car include the front struts going out at 42000 miles (it took over four trips to the dealer to get the problem mostly corrected), a frozen brake caliper causing premature ware out of the left front brakes, a suspension system that bottoms out harshly on roads with dips. With the latest repair the temperature gauge read a half unit higher than ever before and the vent blows warm air regardless of outside temperature (even if it is very cold). I am very dissatisfied with this vehicle.

I was driving when I heard a metallic crunch and suddenly I could not turn the wheel in any direction. I managed to park.. the pulley was broken and the belt was off.fortunately I had stopped to pick up my daughter.we had to travel on I 95 S and would have been going at least 60 mph. This was very expensive for me because we were on our way out of town for a family emergency and I had to take the only rental car which was available $277. Have my car towed $80. And pay for repairs $255..the dealer acts as thogh this is a commo occurence and something to be expected.. I have been driving for about 40 years and never had this happen I also have a water leak under the drivers mat and from the roof into the storage area in the back.they also ac like this is perfectly normal and told me I need to take it to a place that checks out leaks and pay.

Cyclinder head cracked at around 40,000 miles and was replaced by the dealer. At approrimately 69,500 miles the head the dealer replaced at 40,000 miles cracked again. In talking to a friend in Louisiana their van had the exact same problem at almost the same mileage. I have asked them to email this same questionaire to you. The head crackes and leakes antifreeze and water into the cyclinder compartment causing the vehicle to run real rough and overheat.
