“I own two chrysler minivan that have rusted strut towers, and I took them to my favorite body shop. I have been told that almost every chrysler mini van has had this, and to go to the dealer due to a recall. There is no such recall, and was told by the dealer it has been a issue.”
NHTSA complaint #10239857, filed 2008-08, 92,356 miles“My mechanic commented there was a serious problem with my two front strut towers. They had severe corrosion and the struts were pushing through the top of the tower. He was concerned when the struts pushed through I would have difficulty controlling my vehicle. I took the vehicle to my Plymouth dealer on august 10th 2004 (98,402 miles just over 6 years old). Chrysler refused to do anything about the problem. The corrosion is so severe that the metal is perforated and starting to tear. …”
NHTSA complaint #10090457, filed 2004-09, 98,403 miles“Found the driver side strut tower is completely rusted out. Discovered online hundreds of complaints of same on the same vehicle and date range. Plymouth chrysler know about this and describes it as cosmetic but this is a structural problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10438018, filed 2011-12, 145,000 miles“1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager was diagnosed as needing new shock towers. My mechanic feels this is due to a manufacturer's defect since water does not drain onto the ground but rather collects above the shock tower causes premature rusting and necesssitating a steel piece havingto be welded into place .”
