00V305000Received 12 Oct 2000. 679,000 units.
Steering / Steering Wheel/Handle Bar
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: mini vans equipped with 2-spoke luxury wheels manufactured july 1992 through june 1993; or equipped with 4-spoke sport wheels manufactured from july 1992 through september 1993. The steering wheel armature stamping can crack and separate from the center hub attachment to the steering column.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If the steering wheel separates from the center hub attachment to the steering column, loss of control can occur increasing the risk of an accident.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will inspect the steering wheel for cracks and any wheels with cracks will be replaced. All other vehicles will have a reinforcement plate installed to prevent steering wheel separation in the event cracking occurs.
Report filed by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION. Manufacturer campaign number 897. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 6 Nov 2000.
99V213000Received 2 Sep 1999. 1,318,189 units.
Structure / Body / Hatchback/Liftgate / Hinge and Attachments
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: mini vans. The bolts used to attach the strut to the body and the rear liftgate can accumulate fatigue damage if three factors combine. If the bolt is loose, the gas strut is over-pressurized, and the frequency of opening and closing cycles is higher than for the average customer, the bolt can fail.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
Personal injury could occur if the bolts break allowing the liftgate to fall suddenly.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will inspect for loose fasteners, if the fasteners are loose, the strut (and integral bolts) will be replaced. If the bolt shows evidence of torque, the bolt will be removed, larger washers will replace the existing washer and the bolt will be reinstalled and hand tightened to the target torqued.
Report filed by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION.
99V189000Received 16 Jul 1999. 828,559 units.
Visibility / Windshield Wiper/Washer / Linkages
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: minivans. The left hand windshield wiper pivot drive arm was not mechanically staked to the pivot shaft.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This could allow the drive arm to disengage from the shaft leading to a loss of wiper function. The driver's visibility would be impaired, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the left hand side windshield wiper pivot assembly.
Report filed by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION. Manufacturer campaign number 836. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 27 Mar 2000.
99V113000Received 6 May 1999. 736,824 units.
Air Bags
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: mini vans. The wiring that initiates the driver and/or passenger air bag could electrically short circuit to ground. A short circuit to ground that exists immediately after turning the ignition key to the "on" or "start" position can cause the air bag(s) to inadvertently deploy.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
Inadvertent air bag deployment can injure a front seat occupant.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will perform an electronic diagnostic check. Any short circuits identified in either the driver's or passenger side air bag initiator wire circuit will be repaired.
Report filed by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION. Manufacturer campaign number 818. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 2 Aug 1999.
97V149000Received 9 Sep 1997. 1,100,000 units.
Seat Belts / Front / Anchorage
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: passenger mini-vans. The center rear seat, right outboard side, safety belt anchor hook can become unattached from the body anchor position.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained increasing the risk of personal injury.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the anchor hook retaining clip with a revised profile clip and a cover plate.
Report filed by CHRYSLER CORPORATION. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 8 Dec 1997.
97V148000Received 9 Sep 1997. 1,100,000 units.
Seat Belts / Front / Buckle Assembly
Defect, in the NHTSA record

Consequence, in the NHTSA record
In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained increasing the risk of personal injury.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will install a cover retaining clip to the stalk mounted buckle cover to prevent dislocation of the buckle cover.
Report filed by CHRYSLER CORPORATION. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 8 Dec 1997.
96V099000Received 13 Jun 1996. 321,000 units.
Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip
Defect, in the NHTSA record
The ABS hydraulic control unit can experience excessive brake actuator piston seal wear causing pump-motor deterioration.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If this condition occurs, the ABS function could be lost and reduced power assist would be experienced during vehicle braking increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will test the vehicle's anti-lock brake system and repair the vehicles if necessary. Also the warranty on all ABS components will be extended to 10 years or 100,000 miles (except for the brake actuator piston assembly and the pump-motor assembly which will have a lifetime coverage).

Consequence, in the NHTSA record
Poor nut-to-wheel contact during installation can lead topossible loss of a wheel, resulting in loss of vehicle control and an accident.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
The road and spare wheels with the malformed lug nut seat configuration will be replaced.
