I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS ELECTRICAL OR NOT. IT SEEMS WHILE IN SOME VERY COLD WEATHER, THE HEATER SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THEN ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER IT STOPPED ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE FAN WORKED WELL BUT IT BLEW OUT COLD AIR ONLY. IF WE DID NOT HAVE WARM GEAR WITH US, I AM CERTAIN WE COULD HAVE RECEIVED SEVERE FROST BITE. *TR
I BOUGHT CHRYSLER MY T & C AWD 3.8 LXI IN 2001, IN NOV. 2005 IT'S WIRING HARNESS GOT CORRODED DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND CHRYSLER REPLACED IT WITH NEW WIRE HARNESS ON 11-29-2005 AT NO CHARGE AT 44,265 MILES. ON DECEMBER 23, 2014. I WAS DRIVING IN SAN FRANCISCO NEAR GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE AND NOTICED MY VAN STARTED SUDDEN ACCELERATION AND STRONG RUBBER BURNING SMELL STARTED FILLING THE PASSENGER CABIN. IT WAS OBVIOUS, SOON MY VAN WILL BE IN FLAME, THUS I PULLED OVER IN NEARBY PARKING LOT AND GOT IT TOWED AWAY FOURTH PLUS MILES. I HAVE COMPLETE SERVICE RECORD OF THIS VAN THAT IT IS VERY WELL MAINTAINED CAR AND SERVICED AT REGULAR INTERVALS AT CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP EACH AND EVERY TIME. THE MOST RECENT SERVICE AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE WAS DONE AT FREMONT CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AT 122690 MILES ON SEPTEMBER 05, 2014 AT A COST OF $1601.49. I DID EVERY THING THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED IN THEIR SAFETY INSPECTION. AFTER ABOVE SERVICE THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING SMOOTH, THUS I T WAS TAKEN BACK TO DEALERSHIP ON OCTOBER 14, 2014 AT 122903 MILES TO CHECK THE ISSUE. THEY RETURN BACK WITHOUT ANY JOB DONE SAYING THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY THING WRONG. IT WAS DRIVEN FEW MORE MILES AND IT'S WIRE HARNESS BURNED AND THEY SAID WIRE SHORTING INSIDE THE HARNESS WAS THE CAUSE OF ITS SUDDEN ACCELERATION ALSO. I HAVE OPENED CASE #26205598 WITH CHRYSLER BUT THEY HAVE NOT DECIDED YET WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. IT IS VERY UNUSUAL FOR A CAR TO BURN TWO WIRE HARNESSES IN A SPAN OF LESS THEN 125 K MILES. THEIR HARNESS HAVE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS. IT ALMOST BURNED MY CAR DOWN, IT WAS SAVED DUE TO MY ALERTNESS AND IMMEDIATELY PULLING IT OVER TO SAFETY. *TR

CRITICAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT HAS FAILED IN MY VEHICLE. MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE HORN HAS STOPPED WORKING AND I AM UNABLE TO ALERT OTHER VEHICLES OF POSSIBLE DANGERS. INOPERATIVE HORN. INOPERATIVE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG, INOPERATIVE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM. THESE SAFETY FEATURE FAILURES ARE DUE TO AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING FAILURE. CHRYSLER RECALL OR NOTIFICATION CODE D17. THE CHRYSLER D17 RECALL (CLOCKSPRING FAILURE) INCLUDED CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY VEHICLES FROM 1998 THROUGH 2000. ALTHOUGH THE MODEL YEAR OF MY VEHICLE IS 2001, THE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN AUG. 2000. THE HORN DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. THE HORN NOT WORKING IS A TREMENDOUS SAFETY RISK. I AM VERY FEARFUL FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. THE AIRBAG NOT WORKING ALSO PUTS ME AND MY FAMILY AT GREAT RISK. I BELIEVE THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL BECAUSE THE PART HAS FAILED AND MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN 2000. MY ULTIMATE CONCERN IS THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND I WISH THAT CHRYSLER WOULD HONOR THEIR CUSTOMERS BY PROVIDING REPAIR FOR THIS GREAT SAFETY FAILURE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR NEED FURTHER CLARIFICATION. THANK YOU. *TR

FAILURE OF CLOCKSPRING IN STEERING WHEEL ASSEMBLY. THIS FAILURE CAUSES THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG TO QUIT WORKING. IT ALSO CAUSES THE HORN NOT TO WORK. ADDITIONALLY THE CRUISE CONTROL ALSO QUITS FUNCTIONING. THE CLOCKSPRING ELECTRICAL RIBBON BENDS IN ONE SPECIFIC POINT AND OVER TIME THE RIBBON FAILS COMPLETELY. *TR
CLOCKSPRING HAS FAILED TWICE AND REPLACED TWICE AND IS FAILING AGAIN NOW. AIR BAG, HORN, CRUISE CONTROL AND OTHER COMPONENTS FAIL WHEN CLOCKSPRING FAILS. I FEEL THIS COULD BE A POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING SITUATION IF AIR BAG FAILS IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF CLOCKSPRING FAILURE. *TR

IN MY 2001 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY MINIVAN THE HORN, CRUISE CONTROL, AND AIRBAG HAVE STOPPED WORKING. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM DUE TO A BROKEN CLOCKSPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL ASSEMBLY, AND THAT CHRYSLER RECALLED PREVIOUS MODELS WITH THIS SAME DEFECT. DRIVING WITHOUT A HORN AND RELIABLE AIRBAG CLEARLY PRESENTS A SAFETY RISK. I BELIEVE A RECALL OR FREE REPAIR IS IN ORDER. *TR
