Three problems related to alternator/generator/regulator have been reported for the 2000 Chrysler Town & Country. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
When driving through puddles, or large amounts of water on roads, the alternator belt falls off causing the loss of power steering, engine over heating, and the battery to die. Could be while turning or driving straight.
Update to the problem related to the serpentine belt of a 2000 town and country. (odi number: 770436 12/4/02). A fifth (5th) occurence occured on Jan 17, 2004 . Still without resolution other than tow the van and put back the serpentine belt.
All 4 incidents happened on a rainy day (spring 1x (wife driving and turning from a stop light 5-10 mph), fall 2x in one day(30-40mph), last incident 12/4/02 (30-40mph)). When belt slips off, power steering disabled, power brake disabled, alternator disabled, cooling system disabled, engine overheats, stalls when battery runs out. Local dealer (spirit Chrysler, lubbock) has no idea why the problem persist. Dt.
