| Description of the problem | I brought my new dodge caravan at arrigo sawgrass florida on august 2016. It currently has 72,000 miles, the warranty expired at 60,000 miles. I have done all required maintainance at there dealer, this vam has never given me problems before, and has only been seen by them. On april 7, it suddenly stopped working and it seem. To have transmission problems. I took it to the dealer and they informed me the transmission main pump broke and i need to. Replace the transmission with a new on. Repair cost is 4884. 00. This is unacceptable, as i brought it new, amd they are now offering 3yr 100,000 warranty if i do the job with them. Doing some. Research on line i saw they had a recall for dodge caravan 2016-16v461000, s44. This recall. Was effective for units until july 2016, this unit is from august 2016, so i'm pretty sure this is a manufacturer issue and they should be responsable regardless my warranty ended 12,000 miles ago. The vehicle can not be moved and i pay 584. 81 monthly. |
