Description of the problem | Brake system issues and possible front-end issues in general, electrical issues. Had to replace front tires at 18729 miles. Brakes pads and rotors needed replaced at 24130 miles. Dealer only agreed to cover rotors after much disagreement. Stated everything else was normal wear and tear. Check engine light been coming on since late 2009, keep taking it in- stated problems with o2 sensors. Problem still not fixed. Dealer states we must need new computer, and that will be covered by warranty. Brakes have been making screeching/rattling noises again, and mileage is now at 29000 miles. Dealer states nothing wrong with brakes, that it must be brake dust. Dealer just does not want to take ownership or pay to cover- there is absolutely an issue that they will not admit. Instrument panel has failed 4 times while driving, including loss of power steering. There is something very wrong with this van. |
