Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL RAIL O-RINGS AND REINFORCE THE OUTLET (PASSENGER) SIDE FUEL RAIL. VEHICLES SHOWING FUEL LEAKAGE ON THE OUTLET FUEL RAIL MUST HAVE THE OUTLET RAIL REPLACED WHICH INCLUDES CHANGING THE UPPER AND LOWER INJECTOR O-RINGS. HOWEVER, IF A VEHICLE IS LEAKING FUEL FROM THE O-RINGS OR FROM A CRACKED FUEL LINE, THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO A DEALER TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

STEERING LINKAGE FAILURE WHILE BACKING INTO THE DRIVE WAY. NOTHING WOULD INDICATE THERE WAS ABOUT TO BE A FAILURE. LINKAGE BOLTS SHEERED OFF. TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING. CALLED CHRYSLER TO SEE IF THEY WOULD PAY FOR REPAIRS AND THEY SAID "IM SORRY MR.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1993 CHRYSLER CONCORDE. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 2-5 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE CONTACT'S REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY.

MY SON HAS A 1993 CONCORDE, AND HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH THE STEERING. VIBRATION IN STEERING, AND TO MUCH PLAY. WHEN HE INFORMED ME OF THE PROBLEM HE WAS HAVING, I TOLD HIM TO TURN HIS STEERING WHEEL, THEN HE TURNED IT THE OTHER WAY, BOTH TIE RODS LOOKED ODD. I TOLD HIM DON'T TAKE THE CAR FAR. AFTER HE LEFT, I NOTICED ODD MARKS LEFT IN THE DIRT IN MY DRIVEWAY. THE DRIVER SIDE TIRE, LEFT LARGER AND HEAVIER IMPRINT THEN THE PASSENGER SIDE. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THIS, AND FOUND THIS HTTP://WWW.DAIMLERCHRYSLERVEHICLEPROBLEMS.COM. AS I WAS READING THE INFORMATION I WAS AMAZED, THEN READING FURTHER I NOTICED THEY EXPLAIN THE PROBLEMS AND WHAT HAPPENS. GRANTED THE CAR HAS 135,000 MILES ON IT, IF THE ORIGINAL OWNER HAD A PROBLEM AND HAD IT FIXED OR BAND AIDED ADD ANOTHER 65,000 MILES TO A PROBLEM THAT ALREADY EXISTS, IT WOULD BE TIME TO FIX AGAIN. THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM, AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THE CAR HAS OTHER ISSUES, BESIDES THE STEERING, THIS ALSO EXPLAINS WHY MOST OF THE CHRYSLERS AT THE YOU PULL IT YARD I WAS AT WHERE HEAVENLY DAMAGED IN THE FRONT, AND HEAD ON. IF YOUR STEERING FAILS, YOU HAVE NO CHOICE HOLD ON, HOPE FOR THE BEST, TILL YOU HIT SOMETHING HEAD ON, OR SOMEONE HITS YOU. I HAVE HAD SOME MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH MY SON, HE BECAME HEAVILY ADDICTED TO HEROIN, IT TOOK ME 2 YEARS TO GET HIM TO GET THE HELP HE NEEDED. HE WENT TO A FAITH BASED REHAB, HE COMPLETED THE PROGRAM AND CAME HOME OCTOBER 2006. HE WORKED ALL YEAR TO SAVE UP FOR A CAR, THIS GAVE HIM A GREAT

MIDDLE INJECTOR O-RING ON LEFT BANK IS LEAKING AT THE TOP. MY CAR IS A 1993 CHRYSLER CONCORDE AND FALLS UNDER RECALL ID 98V184000. THE RECALL WAS DONE ONCE AND I KNOW THAT THE O-RINGS ARE REPLACED AS PART OF THIS RECALL SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WON'T FIX THIS AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY AND THEY CHARGED ME $102 LABOR BECAUSE THEY SAID IT DOESN'T FALL UNDER THE RECALL. AS I UNDERSTAND THIS THE O-RINGS WERE REPLACED AND NOW THERE WORK HAS FAILED AND THEY WON'T STAND BEHIND IT. *NM

THE FUEL IS LEAKING AT THE INJECTORS ON MY 1993 CONCORDE AND THERE IS A RECALL ID # 98V184000 AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY FAIRFIELD CHRYSLER WON'T HONOR THIS. DON'T THEY KNOW THAT THE CAR COULD CATCH ON FIRE I COULD LOSE MY FAMILY. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO START, AND THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC SHOP, WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM. THE UPPER PLENUM AND ALL THE O RINGS WERE REPLACED.

MY DAUGHTER WHO IS A NEW DRIVER WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE TO AROUND 90-95 MPH, SHE HIT THE BRAKES AND BEGAN TO LOSS CONTROL OF THE CAR , IT WAS RAINING AND THE ROADS WERE WET. WHILE TRYING TO AVOID HITTING ANOTHER CAR SHE BEGAN TO SLIDE ACROSS THE HIGHWAY AND HIT THE CENTER BARRIER WALL . SHE HAS A LOT OF BRUISING AND SCRAPES LUCKILY NOTHING MAJOR. THE CAR WAS TOTALED. *JB

DT: THE CONTACT STATED UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE THE HEATER AUTOMATICALLY CAME ON. THE HEATER BLEW AT MAXIMUM SPEED. THE CONTROLS DID NOT WORK, ALLOWING HIM TO ADJUST THE HEAT SETTINGS. THE HEATER WILL CUT OFF AFTER APPROXIMATELY 45 MINUTES. THE DEALER COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. *AK

DT: CONSUMER BOUGHT (1993 CHRYSLER CONCORDE FIVE MONTHS AGO. TOOK IT TO DMV, AND NOTICED THAT THERE WERE LESS MILES ON IT THAN WAS ORIGINALLY TOLD. THEN ,CONSUMER REALIZED THAT THE ODOMETER WAS GOING BACKWARDS. WENT BACK TO THE DEALER, AND THEY TOLD CONSUMER THAT THE DMV TOLD THEM THAT AFTER 10 YEARS THE MILES ON A VEHICLE DID NOT MATTER. ALSO, THEY TOLD THE CONSUMER THAT THE BEST THEY COULD DO WAS PUT IN A NEW ODOMETER, AND SIMPLY SET IT FOR THE AMOUNT OF MILES THAT THEY HAD TOLD THE CONSUMER WAS THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE.*AK

DT: THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE FUEL RAIL,, AND WHILE DRIVING THERE WAS A FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. THE CONSUMER WAS NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT THE RECALL. THE RECALL INFORMATION WAS FOUND THROUGH A CHRYSLER WEBSITE, AND CONSUMER PUT IN THE LAST EIGHT DIGITS OF THE VIN AND THEY WERE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE CONSUMER'S SON CONTACTED CHRYSLER THIRTY TIMES , AND THEY ADVISED THE CONSUMER TO TAKE THE CAR TO A DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THERE WAS FUEL RAIL LEAK, AND A NEW FUEL RAIL WOULD HAVE TO BE INSTALLED, ALONG WITH OTHER WIRING THAT WAS MELTED AS A RESULT. THE CONSUMER'S SON HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP, AND WISHED TO TAKE VEHICLE AWAY FROM CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP BECAUSE HE FELT THEY WERE DOING NOTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM. CHRYSLER AGREED TO FIX THE RECALL BUT FIRST THEY WANTED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER. THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE AS THE CONSUMER SMELLED SOMETHING ODD AND PULLED OVER. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, THE HOOD WAS RAISED. AND A SMALL FIRE CAME FROM THE FUEL RAIL. A BYSTANDER PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH HIS HAND, AND THE CONSUMER DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME ABOUT A MILE DOWN THE ROAD. *AK

I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT, I HAD TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL ALMOST ALL THE WAY TO THE RITE TO GET OUT. WHEN MY FRONT TIRES CAME OFF THE DRIVE WAY( OR CURB) I HEARD A SNAP. MY TIRES WOULDNT MOVE AFTER THAT. THE STEERIING WHEEL WOULD MOVE BUT MY TIRES WOULDNT. I HAD TO PAY $150 TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A AN AUTO SHOP ($50), HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT AND TELL ME WHAT HAD HAPPENED($70), AND HAVE IT TOWED BACK($50). THE AUTO SHOP TOLD ME THAT TWO BOLTS THAT HOLD THE TIE RODS TO THE RACK AND PINION HAD SNAPED IN HALF. THEY WANTED $820 TO FIX IT. I HAD THEM TOW IT BACK TO MY PARKING SPOT. I TOOK THE RACK AND PINION OUT MYSELF AND GOT THE BOLTS OUT. I AM STILL IN THE PROCESS OF FIXING THIS PROBLEM. MY WIFE HAD LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE IF THIS PROBLEM HAD HAPPENED TO ANYONE ELSE. SHE FOUND THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO QUITE A FEW PEOPLE. I HAVE A FRIEND WHO OWNES A 1994 DODGE INTREPID. MY FRIEND SAID THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO HIS CAR. HE WAS DRIVING WHEN IT HAPPENED TO HIM, HE LOST CONTROL OF HIS CAR AND WAS HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. MY WIFE FOUND A STORY OF A COUPLE OF PEOPLE THAT HAD THIS PROBLEM AND IT ENDED UP TAKING THE LIVES OF THERE 18 YR OLD DAUGHTER AND HER BOYFRIEND. I COULDNT FIND A RECALL FOR IT ON YOUR WEBSITE. I DONT KNOW IF YOU OR THE COMPANY'S WHO HAVE BUILT THESE CARS KNOW OF THIS PROBLEM. IT WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED IF IT WERE INVESTAGAED. BEFORE IT TAKES ANYMORE LIVES.

WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE. RECALL 98V184000 WAS DONE ON FUEL O RINGS, TOOK TO DEALER AND DEALER INDICATED FIRE WAS CAUSED BY OIL ON MOTOR.*AK CONSUMER STATES SHE HAD BEEN SMELLING GAS FOR ABOUT 7-8 DAYS PRIOR TO THE FIRE, CONSUMER FEELS THAT THE FIRE STARTED AROUND THE FUEL RAIL O-RING. *JB

DT: THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE PASSENGER FUEL RAIL BECAUSE OF 0-RINGS. APPARENTLY THE RECALL WAS ONLY FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE. NOW, THERE IS A CRACK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, IT IS LEAKING. THIS IS THE THIRD PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL RAIL.*AK *JB

DEALER HAD FIXED RECALL C45 - FLOOR SHIFTER IGNITION/PARK INTERLOCK ON 93 CHRYSLER CONCORDE. PICKED UP CAR FROM DEALER AND RETURNING HOME AT 40 MPH (RT 124 MD) WHEN SUDDENLY THE ENGINE HOOD POPS OPEN AND SLAMS AGAINST THE FRONT WIND SHIELD WITH A LOUD BANG. WINDSHIELD NOT DAMAGED. SOMEHOW MANAGED TO PULL THE HOOD AWAY FROM THE WINDSHIELD TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. HOOD DISTORTED AND CRUMPLED. HOOD SHOCKS AND HINGES RIPPED. HOOD SUDDENLY OPENING WAS PROBABLY CAUSED BY DEFECTIVE HOOD LOCK. *AK

WHILE SHIFTING TRANSMISSION PIN SHAFT SHEARED OFF. THIS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO SHUT DOWN. CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, AND TOWED IT THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *AK

1. NO GRADUAL SIGNS. ONE DAY, FRONT END VERY UNSTABLE, SHAKING AND WOBBLING - AS IF FRONT END NOT ALIGNED OR BAD TIRES / INFLATION. STEERING THE VEHICLE WAS A CHALLENGE & FELT VERY UNSAFE. SAME DAY, I TOOK VEHICLE TO TIRE STORE TO HAVE LOOKED AT, TIRES CHECKED / ROTATED IF NEEDED. REPLACED ONE REAR TIRE THAT WAS SOON TO BE NEEDED AND CHECKED INFLATION ON OTHERS, ETC. 5:30PM, I WAS SENT ON MY WAY. CAR DROVE BETTER IT SEEMED - FOR APPROX. 4 MILES. 2. 5:45PM - AT RED STOP LIGHT, WHILE WAITING FOR LIGHT TO CHANGE EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE WITH VEHICLE. ONCE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I WAS 2ND CAR IN LINE TO PROCEED... WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE FORWARD, VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO. I THOUGHT MAY HAVE STALLED - NO. IT WOULD JUST NOT GO. I GOT OUT OF VEHICLE WHILE TRYING TO DIRECT TRAFFIC AROUND ME... LOOKED AT FRONT OF CAR, NOTHING. BENT DOWN TO LOOK AT TIRES & BOTH FRONT TIRES WERE FACING (TURNED) INWARD - TOWARDS ONE ANOTHER. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A VEHICLE DO THIS !!! THANK GOD I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD BOLT CONNECTING UPPER TIE ROD TO RACK IS BROKEN OFF IN RACK !!! 3. ESTIMATE WAS GIVEN - HOWEVER, I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BOLTS BREAKING ON ANY EQUIPMENT. VEHICLE IS UNSAFE AND SITTING IN DRIVEWAY. I THINK CHRYSLER SHOULD HAVE IT REPAIRED. VEHICLE HAS 80,000 MILES AND IS A 1993 CONCORDE. *LA

CHRYSLER CONCORDE 1993 CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGES WITHOUT BEING ACTIVATED. ON MAY 13, 2004, THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS DISCONNECTED AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED:THE CRUISE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR HESITATES AND SHUDDERS. AFTER A SECOND OR TWO, THE LIGHT GOES OFF.*AK

ON 09/11/03 I PURCHASED A USED 1993 CHRYSLER CONCORDE. ABOUT A MONTH LATER THE LOW FUEL GAUGE AND AIRBAG LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON, ND MY TANK IS AT LEAST HALF FULL ALL THE TIME. THE PROBLEM IS THAT I NEVER KNOW WHEN THE LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND WHEN THEY DO, IT CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SOMETIMES STALL AND JERK VIOLENTLY AS IF I'VE BEEN HIT FROM THE REAR AND GAS FUMES ARE SO STRONG THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE WITH PRIVATE MECHANICS AND EXPLAINED IT TO THEM BUT NOONE COULD FIND ANY PROBLEM. I RECENTLY FOUND A WEBSITE LISTING PERSONS WITH SOME OF THE SAME PROBLEMS I'VE EXPERIENCED WITH THIS VEHICLE AND FIND IT AMAZING THAT WE HAVEN'T ALL BECOME A FATALITY BECAUSE OF THE MANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. I HAVE A HOOD THAT WON'T STAY UP, A TRUNK THAT SOMETIMES OPENS BY ITSELF, THE GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GOES OFF AND THE HEATER COMES ON AT FULL SPEED, ACCELERATION WHEN CHANGING GEARS FROM PARKING TO DRIVE AND ON AND ON. I UNDERSTAND THAT PROBLEMS COME WITH USED CARS BUT SOME OF THESE ISSUSES WERE THERE WHEN THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW AND WAS RECALLED. I WILL BE GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN, ONLY THIS TIME I WILL HAVE SOME OF THESE ISSUES IN WIRTING AND HOPEFULLY THEY CAN GIVE ME A BETTER ANSWER THAN. *AK "I FOUND NOTHING" (EXCEPT MY MONEY). BEFORE THIS CAR I DROVE A 1994 PLYMOUTH ACCLAIM WHICH I BOUGHT IN 1995. IT SERVED ME REALLY WELL FOR 8 YEARS WITH ME DRIVING BACK AND FORTH TO MY HOMETOWN IN MISSISSIPPI, SOMETIMES TWICE A YE
