Reference to case with sway bar bushing problem ref. Number 10173990. I had the same problem with my 2005 Grand Caravan with 25000 miles on it. I took it to the dealer and they repaired it no problem at no cost. Then on 23 Nov 2006 my van just died. Battery was dead. Would not jump start at all. Towing service could not jump start it either and said something major was wrong. They towed to dealer in shreveport on flat bed where they said the battery was bad. But the good news they said it was all covered under warranty. And they also told me everything from front bumper to rear bumper is 100 percent covered under the warranty for the first 3 years/36,000 miles. So I don't understand why the dealers are so inconsistent is warranty repairs. It states in the manual what is and is not covered and to sum that up anything that shows any sign if hitting a hazard in the road is not covered. Maybe we should start a class action here.
