Grand Caravan

  • 176,000 miles
Engine started missing, vibrations from engine. Diagnosis electrical fault. Wiring harness brittle form harness being placed on, over and next, snaked around exhaust manifold, causing premature wiring failure. Fuel injector wiring harness unshielded in side of intake manifold / plenum. Wiring harness poorly shielded. This is a deliberate, intentional design / engineering to snake wiring harness around exhaust manifold. Causing wiring harness failure. Using sub-standard wiring components and not using shielding to cause pre-mature failure. Installing PCM (computer) in wheel well for pre-mature failure exposed to salt, road debris, water, etc. PCM installed in open area of vehicle prone to failure. Consequential safety issues.
