“I have been researching complaints about my 2002 Dodge grand caravan. There is a problem with the front suspension and steering that have been repeatedly reported, and I have the same complaint. I am experiencing a noise and vibration while turning the steering wheel. The technician informed us there is a TSB for the problem, and the repair cost are estimated at $275.00. The suspension problem is a knocking and rattling sound in the front end. The technician has said the sway bar bushings, and links need to be replaced. The estimated cost for those repairs is an additional $375.00. …”
