Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The serpentine belt comes off every time I go thru water. I can not drive the van anytime it rains or the roads are wet! My daughter in law has the same van and the same problem! Once the belt comes off I loose all power,steering,brakes. Putting me and any passengers in danger!”

NHTSA complaint #10439003, filed 2011-12, 143,000 miles

“On two occasions the serpentine belt slipped off their pulleys while driving, which left my car without power steering, brakes, cooling, A/C, or alternator. I had to stop and have the car towed in. Dealer could not provide a preventative repair to keep the belt from slipping off again. Finally, gates had a kit in feb. 2007 that I had installed that is supposed to cure this problem. This is an epidemic problem for this vehicle.”

NHTSA complaint #10187057, filed 2007-04, 83,500 miles

“My 2000 chrysler Grand Voyager (3.0l engine) has repeated issue with losing its power steering belt in wet conditions (driving through puddles as shallow as 2 inches). This makes the vehicle become difficult to control. Since this happened to me twice in one week (and I had just had the system inspected and a new belt put on before it happened the 2nd time) I contacted several local dealers and asked if they were aware of and had a solution for this issue. One dealer told me stay out of puddles. …”

NHTSA complaint #10262362, filed 2009-03, 212,000 miles

“I have a 2000 Plymouth Grand Voyager...it was raining and all of a sudden while making a turn, the steering wheel locked up...I had my children in that car and it was very scary. Thank goodness I was able to turn it enough to pull into a walgreens, but I had to have it towed and get the serpentine belt replaced. This was awful!”

NHTSA complaint #10251266, filed 2008-12

“While driving in a parking lot between 5-10 MPH vehicle lost all steering capability due to a bolt, which held the pulley in place, was never tightened at the assembly plant. Unsecured bolt damaged the crankshaft. Vehicle currently at dealer. Please provide any further details.”
