Complete brake failure due to rusted brake lines and sudden loss of all brake fluid no stopping ability except emergency brake (only effective at low speed).
My son stepped on the brake and the pedal went to the floor upon inspection the rear brake line was leaking right behind the braded part about a foot behind the ABS unit the other rear lind is in bad shape at the same point.
Strut tower corrosion-driver side-rust and metal breaking up-1998 Grand Caravan-purchased new-has 83,500 miles- have had belt problems several times-also windshield wipers intermit failure -rusted out power steering mech. Totally replaced-many brake jobs-and also headlight interior switch seems to fail at times. I need to make a decission to buy a new van with "hand controls" or have this van "hand controls" installed. Me thinks I need to buy a new van and be looking at another manufactor. As it seems like Chrysler/Dodge is not stepping up to all these failures that are seen by too many other van owners;of this 1998 model Caravan. Saw on line a new repair for the strut rusting called ""fusor #112B/mopar 05083855aa. Can be used to fix this problemthe tsb #23-044-02 thru a company called lord Corp. Listed under their oem bulletins and repair recommendations using fusor adhesives. Think I may use this on mine. Hope others can use this also. Thanks.
Almost all of the air conditioning components were replaced only to find that less than 1 year later, July 2003, the evaporater is leaking and needs to be replaced at a cost of $750.
