Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 1998 dodge caravan with only 66,332 miles the problem's that have come up is first the transmission had a internal pin bust which caused several parts to come apart. this caused the transmissionto break, it had to be rebuilt on 2-17-04 with 61995 miles at the cost of $1685.25. the second problem is the air conditioning system had a failure with the evaporator which seems to be very comon according to several service centers that i have contacted outside the chrysler company. which spitzer dodge wanted to charge $1100.00 to repair. i know the vehical is 6 years old but with the low milage i think this is a little uncalled for and though it should be reported.*ak
