I HAVE 2 ISSUES WITH MY 2002 CHRYSLER VOYAGER. THE FIRST IS THE AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHES ON AND OFF. I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AND INFORMED THEM THAT I WAS AWARE OF THE RECALLS ON THE EARLY MODELS. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL AND THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED AND ON MY WAY HOME FROM THE DEALER IT STARTED AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK THE NEXT DAY AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS WHAT I SUSPECTED BUT IT WOULD COST ME MORE MONEY.(NOW MIND YOU I HAD TOLD THEM WHAT I THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS). THEREFORE IT IS NOT FIXED AND I WAS TOLD THAT AS LONG AS THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS OFF IT WOULD DEPLOY IF IT IS ON IT WILL NOT. THE SECOND ISSUE IS THE RUST! THERE IS A HUGE RUST SPOT ON THE REAR HATCH AND MORE BUBBLES FORMING. THE HOOD IS RUSTING ALSO! *JB
