| Description of the problem | Bought a used 2005 grand caravan 4 months ago. Took it to the dealership today to have the airbag sensor replaced (recall item). The dealership did a "courtesy inspection" for and found a leak in the power steering rack, play in the left tie rod, and a left front axle seal. The vehicle only has 54,000 miles on it so this should not be failing this soon (as i see it is with many other peoples' vehicles). |
