My husband was driving our van, and he got into a fender bender and was only going 4 to 5 mph, and he lightly hit a pole due to sun glare, and it did not make a impact at all, and both air bags popped out, and I was injury badly. The dashboard that was covering the airbag flew off, and cut my head open, and the bag fractured my nose, and my whole top part of my body is sore and bruised. The air bags went off 30 seconds after the accident, and was very late. I could have been killed. My husband is bruised and very sore from the bag hitting him on the chest.

On Saturday, Feb 10, 2001, while pulling into my driveway, the air bag readiness indicator lamp came on. Monday, Feb 12, 2001 I called to make an appointment to bring my Plymouth Grand Voyager SE 1996 in to palmen motors in kenosha, Wisconsin. On Friday the 16th I brought the car in to have the problem diagnosed. I was told that the air bag module had failed and would need to be replaced at a cost of $1,008.30 + tax. I could not afford to make the repair at that time, but was told that the $73.85 I had paid for the diagnoses could be applied to te repair if I was to have the work done in 30 days. The following day Saturday Feb 17th while driving on the expressway I concluded that my horn and cruise control also did not work. I was suspisious that the diagnoses was incorrect, because of the additional problems. I then went to the net to see if I could get some answers. I found some one who had the exact same problem with a 1997 Caravan. Their problem was was the clock spring assembly. I was hesitant to go to the dealer with my find. How come they didn't get it righrt the first time"?" today I read an article in the newspaper that your administration was conducting an investigation into this exact problem.

I have received a recall notice for a radiator fan relay, which is not mentioned on your site. Today, I found a new leak of transmission fluid, the red lights are again flashing on and off, there are power surges in the control panels, the engine chokes and shudders. Oh, and the A/C is out again. We won't even mention the windhield wipers which have continually gone on and off since we have owned this car, or the airbag alarms, or the incredible amount of money we have put into this maintained car. My 20,000 car has become a 40,000 lemon. There is simply no excuse for this, mileage or not. I have attempted to keep this car because I wanted a "safe" car for my teenagers to drive. Now, it appears I have them driving the pinto of the 1990's. I thought I was keeping my kids safe!! when the engine failed, I had the car taken to an non dealer becuase I am fed up with their attitudes...what do you expect at 100,000 miles, etc. When the first diagnostic was ran on the car, a bewildering array of codes came up. After changing the spark plugs, all of the codes dissapeared. However, the electrical problems increased in intensity, and now I'm afraid my daugher will go up in a fireball. I already assume there will be no response from the manufacturer....I am going to consider a suit as I consider these cars dangerous! fuel leaks, static charge buildups? come on!
