“The front ball bearings failed on a 200 Dodge van. I also saw other vans with similar miles(40,000) with the same problem and with ball joint problems too. This was prompted by a tv report on Dodge durango ball joint problems. I think chrysler is making bad front end parts for all its light duty trucks.”
NHTSA complaint #10060277, filed 2004-03, 41,000 miles“The frame horns {left and right} developed cracks on all four sides ahead of the front wheels leading to the detachment of the steering arm and stabilizer bar resulting in little to no control of the vehicle. While the detachment is not fully complete it only through the extremely weakened connections that remain that an accident was avoided. The vehicle was brought to a stop as soon the loss of control was experienced and has been parked since. It is cannot be operated safely in the this condition. The failed frame is the source of the driveability and safety issues. …”
NHTSA complaint #11192029, filed 2019-03, 140,000 miles“Front end/bearing problems in (2) 2000 Dodge ram 2500 vans. Problem has been reoccuring and Dodge fails to admit the problem. They also refuse to replace parts that they replaced 11,000 miles ago. Bearings dissintegrate and cause damage to hub spindles.”
NHTSA complaint #10050651, filed 2003-12, 75,456 miles“This discription is for the undercarrige: the van keeps squeeking when you go over bumps, the dealer saids that the rubber gouments between the frame and the body were not supportive enough for all the weight of the van and the weight of all the passengers. I'm a single parent with kids and I do not have the money to replace all the rubber grouments between the frame and the body that the repair shop suggest I do or I can just keep paying them to lube them. As for the transmission thats another story apparently all my internal seals are leaking and it is causing the transmission to slip. …”
NHTSA complaint #10071024, filed 2004-01“Severe problems with steering since purchase. Vehicle is difficult to control, goes all over road. Dealer cannot find anything wrong. Consumer states there are tracking problems due to rear axle being more narrow than the front axle, rear end sways constantly.”
