#1375 of 1422 Re: Great Dealership!! [dennisctc] by hansienna Dec 19, 2007 (5:47 am)
Replying to: dennisctc (Dec 17, 2007 4:57 pm) Another example of excellent Chrysler service. Auto experts will read your account and tell people how bad GC and T&C are for needing outer tie rods replaced on a 3 year old vehicle but ignore that the service was performed under warranty.   BTW, I have NOT yet received a letter from Toyota extending the warranty for the defective part that will break and either or both Sienna front doors will not remain open.
#1376 of 1422 Warning light meaning by leotaur Dec 28, 2007 (9:36 am)
We have a 2005 GC SXT, with 90,000 km on it, and we really like it. We are in Mexico for the winter. 2 days ago we noticed that the yellow engine shaped warning light came on, on the dash. The car is functioning normally, including temp guage, and we have checked the oil and water coolant levels, and they are fine. The gas cap is not loose, and we have put in a nearly full tank of gas since then. We had the vehicle oil changed and a new filter installed about a week ago at a local Goodyear dealer, and the place is well equipped and well run. The mgr says we need to go to the local Chrysler dealer to get a computer code read out, but has rechecked the filter installation, and says it is fine. The oil has clearly been changed and looks clean. The manual is rather vague about the meaning of this light, apparently because it is affected by many conditions, most of which  are not harmful, such as a loose gas cap. Has anybody any ideas, or should we just get on with it and go to the local dealer and put our trust in them ? Thanks.....DougW Replies to this message: leotaur (Jan 19, 2008 12:54 pm) leotaur (Jan 26, 2008 10:32 am)

Anyone know where the main fuse box is ? I found the one under the hood. I'm having trouble with the blower fan not working any thoughts ?   Thanks

Replying to: leotaur (Sep 06, 2007 9:03 pm) I am having the same trouble. I have 83000 miles on my van and the auto door lock system has stopped working. I got under the hood and fiddled with the fuses and it worked, but this is the third time it has messed up and what I did last time is not working this time. I am writing to find out if you have figured out what the problem is and if it was fuse problem or what? Sorry I don't have an answer, but I am desperate to fis our van and wanted to know if you have found any leads. Thanks.   jimmy Replies to this message: leotaur (Jan 19, 2008 12:49 pm)

Replying to: 1cor131 (Jan 11, 2008 7:00 pm) My problem was that I had accidentally changed the menu on the electronic control centre above the windshield. Read the manual and reprogram the auto door lock function, which is one of the options you will see as you scroll through the menu for various functions, such as the time delay for the headlights to go off and so on.

Replying to: leotaur (Dec 28, 2007 9:36 am) Further to the above, we went in to the local Chrysler dealer, and they hooked up to the computer analyzer, and showed me the reading. There is a fault in the Emissions Control, so it goes in next week so they can sort it out. He said it is sometimes only a simple problem, but they need the van for the day We asked if we could keep driving, and he said it was fine and that the worst that could happen was a slight decrease in power, but there was no risk of any harm. Interesting, but as you might expect, the computer analyzer message is all in English rather than Spanish, adding to our reassurance. DougW Replies to this message: leotaur (Jan 26, 2008 10:32 am)

Replying to: leotaur (Jan 19, 2008 12:54 pm) The light is confirmed by computer analysis to be due to a fault in the Emissions Control whatever...we have been told that this is not a requirement in Mexico, and that the simplest thing is to have it disconnected, and then we can get a new one installed when we get home. We are told that all that will happen, is a slight rise in fuel consumption, but it is not harmful to be without it. Any comments ? DougW

Replying to: wog6269 (Mar 01, 2008 5:05 pm) I recently had sway bar bushings and links replaced on my 2005 T&C. The work order shows 1.9 hours of labor. The total cost was $161.50 for labor and $95.90 for parts for a total of $257.40. I have an extended warranty with a company called Warranty Direct and they paid the full charge so it cost me nothing.   C.B.
