2000 Plymouth Voyager recalls

Recall 04V-480: Air Bags

Reported Oct 6, 2004 · 955,344 vehicles affected · DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION

Problem: On certain minivans, the driver's air bag may become disabled due to a failure of the clockspring, which is located in the hub of the steering wheel.

Risk: This condition will manifest itself through illumination of the air bag warning lamp, and could eventually result in a driver's air bag open circuit, if the part is not replaced in a reasonable amount of time.

Fix: Dealers will replace the clockspring assembly on all covered vehicles with 70,000 miles or less. For those vehicles with more than 70,000 miles, daimlerchrysler will offer an extended lifetime warranty under which it will replace the clockspring at no charge if it fails. Daimlerchrysler will also reimburse owners who have paid to have the clockspring replaced on their vehicles. The recall began on october 12, 2004. Owners should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

Recall 00V-268: Fuel System, Gasoline

Reported Sep 13, 2000 · 1,163,000 vehicles affected · DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION

Problem: Vehicle description: mini vans built with 3.3l and 3.8l engines have fuel rails with nitrole rubber o-ring seals that can degrade over time. Fuel leakage from the underhood fuel injection fuel rail could result, increasing the likelihood of a vehicle fire.

Risk: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.

Fix: Dealers will install a seal on the vehicle fuel rails to prevent external leakage of fuel from the fuel rail crossover tube, should the existing o-rings continue to degrade. Owner notification began on january 25, 2002. Due to the large quantity of vehicles involved in this campaign, the owner notification will be phased over the next several months. However, if a vehicle is leaking fuel from the o-rings, the vehicle should be taken into a dealer to have this repaired as soon as possible. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

Electrical System · at 1,500 miles · reported Mar 3, 2020
The serpentine belt comes off causing the power steering to fail, and the alternator not to work. This has occurred off and on since the vehicle was new. This failure occurs in motion when the streets are wet and a bit bumpy.

Steering · at 102,000 miles · reported Mar 13, 2013
My minivan has a badly corroded driver side strut tower that chrysler knows is a product flow yet will not authorise repairs to. This places all owners families and the general public at grave danger when this tower. Collapses for the vehicle looses steering and the wheel falls off. I feel a recall is in high order before someone gets injured or killed.this may have happened already.all minivans from 1996-2000 are affected. All my calls have fallen on deaf ears. Own up to your product flaw chysler and do the right thing! You got government bail out money how about bailing out your customers…

Engine and Engine Cooling · at 103,976 miles · reported Jun 26, 2011
Over the past 5 years - since the replacement my serpentine belt on my 2000 chrysler voyager has popped off 4 or 5 times. Since our local dealer is no longer here I had to pay $93.21 today to have the belt put back. The mechanic checked the belt and tensioner and found both in practically brand new condition and good working order. He could not find a reason why it would come off. Each time it has come off was after a rain. In researching this problem online I found that it has happened a lot to many others also. My former dealer's mechanics also could not explain why this occurs. This is a…
