My airbag light came on so I went online and found out that there was a recall on the sensor in my area. I took my van to the dealership to be fixed. When they were done they told me that is was going bad, but the airbag light was not due to the sensor. It was due to my clock spring in my airbag system. I have not been able to fix it due to the cost, but the more investigative work I have done, this is another issue that is a major problem with this year and make. I have also noticed that it was a problem for past years of this vehicle and they need to make some changes on the product that is being used.
I was driving on the highway in my Mini van when the right side rear panel window exploded. Sounded like a gun shot. The window was gone. I pulled over out shear fear and a truck with two men following behind me witnessed the explosion and pulled over as well to make sure I was ok. They remarked they have never seen anything like it. This was in 2007 with approximately 20,000 miles on vehicle. I went to dealership and had window replaced. Well it happened again yesterday 5/20/2011. Close to 4 years later with about 79,000 miles on the vehicle. My husband was driving the vehicle, I was in front passenger seat, my dad behind me and my child in the far back seat. The same window exploded, again sounded like a gun shot. The window exploded and my child seated in the far back but luckily seated by the left side rear panel covered her head and face from the explosion. Thank goodness she was not next to the window that exploded. In both cases when that same window exploded there was no type of weather conditions happening. Just quiet calm day. The dealeship is doing nothing about it since they have no other record of this occuring with other Mini vans. The dealership basically is saying just to replace the window once again. I am not comfortable with this resolution for I think there is something terribly wrong and it is not safe. I worry about other familieis and their town and country Mini vans especially since this is where most children sit. I do not trust that window now.
Noise was told that the power steering is leaking, must replace rack & pinion car has less than 80,000.
