“We have a 98 Plymouth Grand Voyager we have owned it 5-6 years. For about the last 2 years sometimes the brake pedal pulls down on its own and sticks for a few moments. It will do this when your foot is on the pedal and not pressing down at all, but it also does it when your foot is not over the pedal at all! I could be going 45 MPH and it will pull down on its own and come back up in a few seconds. It is an very occasional problem so we never know when it will happen,unfortunately it has not done it while at the mechanics. …”
NHTSA complaint #10178219, filed 2007-01, 85,000 miles“Applied brakes on steep driveway and pedal suddenly went to the floor. Experienced greatly reduced braking capability. Found steel brake line failed due to corrosion (rust through) where it connects to braided steel section just aft of the ABS proportioning unit. Plan on having it repaired next week. 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager.”
NHTSA complaint #10262076, filed 2009-03, 111,730 miles“Chrysler designed the power distribution block cover to hold water and retain moisture. This causes the connections to corrode and fail leading to failure of critical, electrically-operated, safety systems including the airbag safety restraint system and the anti-lock braking system. Chrysler has been aware of the error and redesigned the power distribution box. However, they did not recall and offer to replace the failed component.”
NHTSA complaint #10224244, filed 2008-04, 151,467 miles“I purchased vehicle used and found no problems with the vehicle with the exception of a squeaky serpentine belt. Put a little belt dressing on it and that was as far as the issue went. Then on a dark rainy night, went through a rain puddle-very slowly, and instantly, steering became very difficult. The worst part of this experience this night was trying to put belt back on pulleys, as you can imagine in the dark and no idea how to route it. Thank goodness there was a diagram in engine. With no knowledge that this was a very well known issue with these vehicles it was quite a surprise. …”
