PARKING BRAKE INITIALLY WOULD NOT RELEASE AND STAY LOCKED ON. BRAKE SHOES WORE DOWN TO THE POINT THAT NOTHING WAS LEFT ON THE BRAKE PADS TO HOLD THE VEHICLE IN PLACE TO KEEP IT FROM ROLLING DOWN A HILL. THE VAN TRANSMISSION IS AN AUTOMATED MANUAL WITH NO CLUTCH, SO THERE IS NO WAY TO LEAVE THE VAN IN GEAR WHEN STOPPED AND USE THE TRANSMISSION TO KEEP THE WHEELS FROM ROLLING. I TOOK THE VAN TO THE DEALER. THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT WERE UNSURE OF WHY THIS ISSUE WAS HAPPENING. THEIR SOLUTION WAS TO ADD ALL NEW PARKING BRAKE PARTS COSTING ME A TOTAL OF $1400 TO REPLACE.

THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE BRAKING CONTROL MODULE THAT DOES NOT ALLOW A PROPER SIGNAL TO A TRAILER FROM THE VAN. THE DEFECT PREVENTS BOTH BRAKE AND TURN SIGNALING IN ANY MANNER FROM THE TRAILER AT ANY SPEED OR AT A STAND STILL. THIS DEFECT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN PRESENT FOR 2 YEARS, NO NOTIFICATION HAS BEEN GIVEN TO ME BY THE MANUFACTURER. I FOUND THE ISSUE BECAUSE I BOUGHT A NEW TRAVEL TRAILER. WHEN I ASKED THE DEALER ABOUT THE ISSUE THEY STATED THAT CHRYSLER CORPORATION HAS A RESTRICTION ON ORDERING THE PART TO FIX THE ISSUE. APPARENTLY ONLY ONE CUSTOMER CAN BE SERVICED AT A TIME. THEY STATED THAT EACH PERSON TAKES AROUND 2 WEEKS TO SERVICE. I AM APPARENTLY 6TH IN LINE FOR THE PART. THIS MEANS I HAVE A 2 1/2 MONTH WAIT TIME BEFORE I CAN TOW A TRAILER. THE LENGTHY FIX WAIT TIME LEAVES ONE TO BELIEVE THAT UNSCRUPULOUS OWNERS ARE TOWING WITHOUT SIGNALING EQUIPMENT AND THUS ENDANGERING LIVES. APPARENTLY CHRYSLER IS IN NO HURRY TO SOLVE THE ISSUE WHICH IT HAS KNOWN ABOUT FOR WHAT I AM GUESSING IS A 2 YEAR PERIOD. THE CHRYSLER GROUP IS WILLFULLY COVERING UP DANGEROUS DEFECTS. WHEN DISCOVERED, PRESUMABLY AFTER ONE HAS TOWED A TRAILER SOME DISTANCE, THEY AGAIN CONTINUE TO DENY THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE BY SLOWLY REPAIRING VEHICLES THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THE DEFECT. SEE FOR YOURSELF, CALL A DEALER AND ASK THEM ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT IS RECALL S29 FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD. APPARENTLY THE "S" STANDS FOR SECRET.. ASK THE FIRM EXECUTIVES WHY ONE HAS A VEHICLE WITH THIS ISSUE FOR 2 YEARS BEFORE THEY MUST FIND OUT ON THEIR OWN THEY COULD KILL SOMEONE BY TOWING A TRAILER. WITH NO OPERATIONAL BRAKE OR TURN SIGNALS.
