During higway driving me, and later my friends inside the car start to smell someting burnig. When we pull over and stop the car, there was smoke coming from an engine compartment. When we opened a hood, there was a fire inside engine compartment. Hood padding was burning without apparent reason. Fortunately I always have a fire extinguisher in my car and we extiguished this fire. Now all interior of my car has terrible smell. My concern is: Why padding inside engine compartment is highly flamable" do Chrysler corporation need more peoples dead in car fires? what happen if somebody else will get fire and will not have a fire extinguisher handy? how many peoples cary fire extinguisher, maybe this spouse to be mandatory for all cars" thank you, zbigniew lucki

Camshaft broke in half at 59,000 miles, necessitating engine replacement. Service mgr. & technician both iniststed this was very unusual in any engine, especially one with this low mileage. Dodge refused to help with repairs as car was "out of warranty". the wipers turn on by themselves every now and then, sometimes when just opening the doors. The whole brake system had to be replaced at 43,000 miles as it had never been properly looked at, even though service records showed inspection at three occasions before breaking down. Original dealer was dutchess Dodge, 614 South road, poughkeepsie, NY 12601 (914) 462-7700. They never responded to correspondence regarding the brakes & wipers. The engine was repaired at hyde park motors. I've contacted Dodge (daimler/Chrysler) and the district mgr. (phil fornabaio) but they refuse to help with the engine and wouldn't even meet with me.

The above mentioned vehicle was in route on a 12 hour road trip. About 2 hours before our destination, the van started making noises (when I applied pressure on the brakes they made a grinding noise). We arrived at our destination, and the next day the steering wheel started to "lock up". I called a Dodge dealer, but I was afraid to drive it that far, so I drove to the closest full service garage. The mechanic got behind the wheel, and before he got it out of the lot, he pulled back in and said he thought he knew what was wrong. He raised the van up, and I was shocked to see the engine falling out. He said to stay out of the van that it was very dangerous. I immediately had it towed to the Dodge dealer. They verified the engine was falling out and kept the van a few days to install two bolts that they said were missing. I asked them if it was a factory error and he said no - the bolts were in at one time and somehow fell out. P.S. we had to rent a car for 6 days while it was repaired. The dealer said he never saw this happen before - true or not?

At low speeds usually in traffic jam or toll area, vehicle stalls with no reason. I lost control of the vehicle. On a separate incident at 50 mph I heard the engine rev up and slowly losing speed. I took it to the dealer, but cannot replicate the problem.
