Dodge Monaco

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1991 DODGE MONACO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSIVE SAFTEY RESTRAINT SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED AND WAS NOT PERFORMING PROPERLY ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 95V213000 (SEAT BELTS); HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

METAL STRAP SECURING FUEL TANK TO VEHICLE RUSTED AND BROKE; DEFECT DISCOVERED BEFORE ANY CRASH/PERSONAL INJURY; CONTACTED MANUFACTURER'S DEALER FOR REPLACEMENT PART AND WAS ADVISED NONE AVAILABLE NOW NOR LIKELY TO BE AVAILABLE IN FUTURE; HAD TO ARRANGE FOR CUSTOM MANUFACTURE OF REPLACEMENT PART. I STILL HAVE PART OF THE RUSTED STRAP. THIS PART SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE OF A MORE DURABLE MATERIAL CONSIDERING THE FUNCTION IT SERVES; RUSTING ISSUE COMPOUNDED BY THE FACT THAT A LOOSE-FITTING COVER…

THE FRONT SEAT BELTS WERE INOPERATIVE. *JB

CONSUMER HAD BEEN HAVING PROBLEM WITH HEATER CORE JUST LIKE MENTIONED IN RECALL 94 V 006 000. HAD CONTACTED MANUFACTURER. MANUFACTURER STATED THAT VEHICLE WAS NOT UNDER RECALL DUE TO THE VIN. *AK

I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT ROTORS BECAUSE THEY RUSTED TO THE POINT OF COMPRESSING. I UNDERSTAND 1989 TO 1991 WERE RECALLED FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS WHY MY 92 WASN'T RECALLED IF IT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. MY BRAKING WAS SO POOR THAT I WENT AHEAD AND SPENT ALMOST $300.00 AND REPLACED ROTORS AFTER I COMPLAINED TO CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID THEY WHOULD NOT PAY FOR IT. I HAVE OLD ROTORS IF SOMEONE IS INTERESTED IN LOOKING AT THEM. THANKYOU KEN

THE SEAT BELT TRACK AND ASSEMBLIES WERE REPLACED UNDER RECALL 95V213 BUT NOT RETURNED TO WORKING ORDER, BOTH FRONT SEAT RESTRAINTS CONTINUE TO MALFUNCTION AND ARE INOPERABLE, ADDITIONALLY THE WORK PERFORMED HAS CAUSED MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS IN THE VEHICLE RENDERING MANY OF ITS SYSTEMS, INCLUDING THE A/C INOPERATIVE (ATTORNEY FOR CLIENT).

WHILE TRAVELING WINDSHIELD WOULD FOG UP, CAUSING POOR VISIBILITY. *AK WHILE TRAVELING THE WINDSHIEDL FOGS UP DUE TO LEAKING HEATER CORE, THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS BUT THE VIN WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL. *YH

RECALL 95V213000/ACTIVE SEAT AND SHOULDER BELT: DEALER REFUSING TO HONOR RECALL. *AK *ML

WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED ON MIST COMES FROM THE VENTS WITHOUT TURNING ON THE VENTILATION SYSTEM. THIS CAUSES THE WINDOWS TO FOG UP AND CREATES POOR VISIBILITY FOR DRIVER. DEALER SAYS HEATER CORE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. *AK

WHEN APPROACHING A STOP AT 2 MPH THERE WAS A CLICKING NOISE, AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT APPLICATION AND THE VEHICLE TOOK OFF. DEALER HAS INSPECTED VEHICLE. *AK
