Steering column separation investigation as of 20030507
Mr. Larry a. Sackey submitted a petition to the national highway traffic safety administration (nhtsa) by letter dated april 18, 2003, requesting that nhtsafurther investigate the "defective collapsible steering shaft system" on 1987-1995 vehicles manufactured by the daimlerchrysler corporation.In part because of 49 cfr ? 30120(g), nhtsa has decided to limit the scope of the petition vehicles to 1993-1995 models, excluding the 1993 jeep grand cherokee and 1994-1995 dodge ram series trucks that were recalled (93v210 & 96v230) for steering column failure.If the analysis of these vehicles had identified a potential problem, the scope could have been expanded in an investigation.A review of odis data base shows no recent complaints and a lack of a complaint trend concerning the subject issue on the subject vehicles as a whole or by individual models.Therefore, the petition is denied.For details, see federal register notice volume 68, no. 130, july 8, 2003.
Fuel injection delivery system fuel leak investigation as of 19981007
Fuel injector assembly leakage investigation as of 19980310
Nitrile rubber seals used in the fuel rail assemblies of the subject vehicles at the supply, return, and crossover tube fittings, and at the pressure regulator fail, resulting in fuel leakage in the engine compartment.Also, the outlet (right) fuel rail may leak from cracks at certain mold gates in the thermoset rail material.Chrysler will recall the subject vehicles and stated that it intends to replace the o-rings with fluorocarbon o-ring having greater heat resistance capability and attach reinforcements to the rail in the areas where the cracking concern has been known to occur most frequently.Rails that are already cracked will be replaced by new, reinforced rails.
Underhood fuel leaks investigation as of 19950922
A safety-related defect trend has not been identified at this time and further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that no safety-related defect exists.The agency reserves the right to take further action if waarranted by the circumstances.An engineering analysis clossing report is included in the public file.

The abs pump went out on the vehicle on august 30, 2013. It has been at the dealer since september 4, 2013. I have information stating that the pump is covered under a lifetime warranty and chrysler corporation has given me the run around on it saying that it does not mean lifetime since it failed again after the original recall repair. I am sorry but i thought lifetime meant lifetime according to the documents that i have and read. They refuse to provide me with an alternate car to drive so i can get to work stating that is not covered either. They are the poorest excuse of a business that i have ever dealt with and tell you something different with each customer service representative you speak to. They cannot even tell the same lies twice. I was first informed that they couldn't get the parts, then told they were on back order and now i am told they do not have an eta for the parts. I will not advise anyone to purchase any of their products since they do not honor warranties or stand behind their products. *js

Tl*the contact owns a 1993 chrysler new yorker. The contact stated that the brakes on her vehicle suddenly felt as if more pressure needed to be applied when the pedal was depressed. The brakes pulsate when braking on slick surfaces. The abs activates on dry pavement and slows the vehicle down; therefore, more pressure has to be applied to the brake pedal. A mechanic stated that the abs pump was not activating properly. The dealer could not duplicate the failure. Nhtsa campaign id number 96v099000 (service brakes, hydraulic:antilock) was referenced. The current mileage was 104,500 and failure mileage was 99,817.

I own a mint condition 1993 chrysler new yorker with 68,000 miles on it. Last week the engine started leaking a large amount of gasoline from fuel rail onto the top of block and engine compartment. I saw where a recall campaign was issued to correct this safety condition so i contacted the local chrysler dealer to look at the vehicle. He advised me that my vehicle was not part of the recall and will not be repaired under same. How can that be?? It clearly states ""1993 chrysler new yorker"". Now he advises me that the cost to repair a leaking fuel rail/o-ring will be $536.00. This is clearly wrong. I need someone to investigate this defect. *nm

I had to replace the transmission on this chrysler -- people stop me in malls, supermarkets and ask me if i've had trouble with the transmission as they have -- all the way back to 1990 everyone i've spoken to that has had a chrysler van, new yorker, dynasty, etc. Has had major transmissions problems and/or has had to replace the transmission. In speaking with my local aamco transmission reps and continental transmission rep (a buffalo store) -- chrysler cars are their number 1 repair. I had occasion to speak with the vp of customer service for aamco at the executive offices in pa -- he also reiterated that chrysler is their number 1 repair. This should be looked in to. With all of the chrysler repairs i've heard of just in the buffalo area alone, nationally their has to be thousands of consumers who have incurred a major expense. Please please investigate this. When i purchased this car from an elderly man in 7/2000 it only had 19,025 miles on the car and it was in showroom condition. Around 21,000 miles the car started to have hesitation problems and i didn't know it was the transmission. One local buffalo transmission shop indicated that the computers operating the transmissions were bad and they've had to sell many of them. Thank you and i really appreciate an investigation.*ak

Tl* the contact owns a 1993 chrysler new yorker. The contact stated that the check engine and abs warning lights randomly flashed and remained illuminated for years. The contact also stated that the brake pedal was difficult to depress and he had to apply force each time the failure happened. The vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 96v099000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The vehicle was taken to three different dealers who provided various diagnostics and repairs, which did not prevent the failure. The check engine and abs warning lights continued to illuminate and the brake pedal was still hard to depress. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided no permanent remedy for the condition. The vin and failure mileage were not available.
