I own a 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan with 84,000 miles.I just had a new starter put in.About two weeks prior to my starter dying and stranding me,I tried to use my air conditioning,only to have it blow warm air on a 90 + degree day.
When the van went to the garage for the starter replacement,I told them about the air conditioning.They said that the evaporator probably had a hole in it.They said Daimler-Chrysler
had alot of problems with the evaporators and starters.My mechanic told me his garage had replaced 4 starters in the last week on dodge grand caravans.
I spoke with a customer service rep. at Daimler-Chrysler,Explained what the mechanic had told me , the Chrysler
rep said," Because it's not a safety issue, there's nothing
that can be done."
I guess I foregot to mention that the transmission was replaced
as well,just after the waranty had expired.
I definately will think twice before I buy another Dodge.
