NHTSA complaint #10056407, filed 2004-02, 57,511 miles

“Serpentine belt has repeatedly fallen off of our 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager. This condition has occurred driving through very small standing water and/or a snow drift. The belt has come off 5 times in the last 6 months, causing the loss of control and loss of power steering, alternator drive and cooling system. This has left my wife and 3 small children stranded several times. Upon researching this problem, this is a known design flaw with the van. In fact, there are several web sights that I found where dozens of owners have complained about the same problem. …”
