BACK WINDOW CAME UNGLUED WITHOUT ANY CAUSE, CAR WAS PARKED IN DRIVEWAY. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE AND THE GLASS WINDOW FELL OUT AND NO ONE CAN REPAIR IT AND CHRYSLER IS NO HELP AT ALL. *TR

I OWN A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE. THE REAR WINDOW FELL OUT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED BY CHRYSLER. IF WINDOW CAME OUT DURING A CRASH, THE GLASS WINDOW COULD SERIOUSLY INJURE THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER. A FLYING SHEET OF GLASS. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO FIX THIS DEFECT. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON LINE ABOUT THIS. THE OTHER THING IS THE COST OF REPAIR. THIS CAN ONLY BE FIXED BY REPLACING THE ENTIRE TOP FOR $2,000. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THERE SHOULD BE A CLASS ACTION SUIT ON THIS ISSUE. I GUESS CHRYSLER WILL WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO LOSE THEIR LIFE BEFORE TAKING ACTION. BUY AMERICAN, WHAT A JOKE!!! *TR

2005 CRHYSLER CROSSFIRE REAR WINDOW PULLED AWAY FROM CANVAS. CANNOT BE REPAIRED. NEEDS A NEW ROOF AT A COST OF $2250. UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY, CHRYSLER DEALER CLAIMS NOT COVERED. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE YET CHRYSLER DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THIS PRODUCT. *TR

2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE 12,000 MILES IN NEW CONDITION. REAR WINDOW SEPARATING FROM FABRIC CONVERTIBLE TOP DUE TO POOR ENGINEERING USING INADEQUATE SEALANT. NO KNOW FIX AVAILABLE DUE TO NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOUND ONLINE. CHRYSLER WILL NOT WARRANT THE ISSUE. CONV. TOP HASN'T BEEN UPDATED SO THERE IS NO KNOW FIX!! *TR

I OWN A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE. IT HAS 27,434 MILES ON IT. THE BACK GLASS WINDOW CAME UNGLUED AND PARTIALLY FELL INTO THE REAR DECK. IT CANNOT BE REPAIRED WITH ADDITIONAL GLUE. THE REMAINDER OF THE TOP IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. IT IS NOW COSTING ME $2850.00 FOR A NEW TOP. CLEARLY, THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND SAFETY HAZARD. A RECALL IS IN ORDER. *TR

WE HAVE A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE,MY WIFE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THE BACK GLASS CAME APART FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP AND HIT HER,IT DIDN'T BREAK THE GLASS BUT ALMOST CAUSED HER TO HIT AN ONCOMING TRUCK,WE CONTACTED THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP WHERE WE HAD PURCHASED IT AND THEY OFFERED NO HELP,ONLY THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO BUY A COMPLETE NEW TOP,I ASKED THE WOMAN HOW DO I KNOW THIS WONT HAPPEN AGAIN AND CAUSE A WRECK THIS TIME AND HER REPLY WAS,I DON'T KNOW ! WE HAVE CALLED EVERYONE WE CAN FIND TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS AND NO ONE KNOWS WHAT TO DO? THE CAR STILL REMAINS UNDRIVEABLE RIGHT NOW. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. MY CAR WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE AND WHEN I WENT OUT INTO THE GARAGE IN THE AFTERNOON ON APRIL 2, 2010 I NOTICED THE REAR WINDOW IN MY CONVERTIBLE TOP WAS PARTIALLY DISLODGED FROM THE ROOF FABRIC. I CALLED THE CHRYSLER DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT IMMEDIATELY AND WAS TOLD BY THEIR SERVICE DEPT. THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT IT WOULD COST $2,200 PLUS TAX TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ROOF. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THE ADHESIVE HOLDING THE WINDOW TO THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS DEFECTIVE RESULTING IN IT COMING UNGLUED. I PURCHASED THE 7-70000 MAXIMUM CARE EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR $2,226 AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE. MY CHRYSLER DEALER HAS TOLD ME THAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. THERE IS NO WHERE IN THE WARRANTY THAT SAYS THIS IS NOT COVERED. I HAVE WRITTEN TO CHRYSLER CORP. AT 27777 INKSTER ROAD FARMINGTON HILLS, MI 48334, THE DIRECTOR OF DAMLIER CHRYSLER SERVICE WARRANTIES, P. O. BOX 2700, TROY, MICHIGAN 48007-2700 AND FLORIDA DEPT. OF INSURANCE SERVICE WARRANTIES, 200 E. GAINES ST., TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA 32399 AND HAVE NOT HEARD A WORD FROM ANYONE. I HAVE 19,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE AND IT IS CONTINUOUSLY GARAGED. FOR THE PAST 3 WEEKS I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. SINCE CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM SO MUCH TO SAY THAT IT IS "A COMMON PROBLEM" WHY ARE THEY NOT MAKING GOOD FOR IT? AND SINCE I CAN NOT FIND A MENTION OF THIS PROBLEM IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, WHY ISN'T IT COVERED. I WOULD BE GLAD T

IGNITION FAILURE. *TR

I OWN A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONV. THE BACK WINDOW BECAME UNGLUED AND IS FALLING OUT,I CANT DRIVE THE CAR AND IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO PUT THE TOP DOWN. THE ONLY FIX I'M AWARE OF IS TO ORDER A NEW TOP FROM CHRYSLER AT THE TUNE OF 2500 DOLLARS. IT'S A MAJOR PROBLEM AND THEY SHOULD RECALL THIS AND REPAIR AT NO CHARGE. THIS CAR WAS EXPENSIVE AND OBVIOUSLY I WILL NO LONGER BUY A CHRYSLER PRODUCT BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT FIX THEIR PROBLEM. *TR

HAVE A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE AND THE BACK WINDOW CAME APART FROM THE CANVAS. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 27,000 MILES ON IT. CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAY IT IS NOT A DEFECT BUT FROM OTHER COMPLAINTS I HAVE SEEN THIS IS HAPPENING OFTEN IN THE CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE. TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS WOULD BE GOODWILL BY THEM SINCE I WAS ONLY 13 DAYS OUT OF WARRANTY WHEN THIS HAPPENED, BUT THEY ARE NOT RETURNING MY PHONE CALLS. *TR

THE REAR WINDOW OF MY 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE HAS COME UNGLUED. THE CAR HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT AND HAS ABOUT 10,000 MILES. I PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY HOWEVER, I AM TOLD THAT IT IS NOT COVERED. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER FAULT. I AM TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THE ONLY REPAIR ADVISE GIVEN WAS TO HAVE THE TOP SENT BACK TO CHRYSLER AT MY EXPENSE TO HAVE THE REGLUE. I WAS QUOTED IN THE THOUSANDS TO HAVE THIS DONE. WHAT MAKES THEM THINK DOING THE SAME PROCESS AGAIN WILL NOW WORK? *TR

I WAS INVOLVED IN AN AT-FAULT WRECK ON JULY 10, 2009. MY FOOT SLIPPED OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN SLOWING DOWN FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP MY SLOWING CAR. I CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF A UPS TRUCK. MY CHEST SLAMMED INTO THE STEERING WHEEL BECAUSE THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE PASSENGER'S AIRBAG DID. THE POLICE AND FIREMAN WERE EXTREMELY SHOCKED AND IT IS WRITTEN UP THE POLICE ACCIDENT REPORT. I NEED HELP IN CONTACTING CHRYSLER CONCERNING THIS INCIDENT. MY CAR WAS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND HAD ONLY 46,000 MILES ON IT. I AM NOW DISABLED AND CAN NO LONGER WORK TO SUPPORT MYSELF. THE HOSPITAL SENT ME HOME FROM THE EMERGENCY ROOM AND PAIN CONTINUED TO WORSEN IN MY NECK AND LOWER BACK UNTIL I WAS FORCED TO STOP WORKING AFTER 33 YEARS IN THE SAFETY FIELD. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH SEVERAL ATTORNEYS AND THEY HAVE INFORMED ME THEY WILL NOT TAKE THE CASE BECAUSE CHRYSLER IS IN BANKRUPTCY. BIG DEAL! THEY ARE STILL SELLING CARS!!!!! THE GOVERNMENT BAILED THEM OUT TO THE TUNE OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, THEIR EXECUTIVES STILL RECEIVED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN BONUSES, ETC. AND I, AN OWNER OF ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES, WHICH I LONGED FOR SINCE IT WAS RELEASE AND AM NOW DISABLE DUE TO A MALFUNCTION OF THE AIRBAG, WHICH IS DOCUMENTED BY POLICE. THIS WILL NOT BE MY FINAL EFFORT TO RECEIVE DAMAGES FROM CHRYSLER. MY NEXT STEP IS TO CONTACT MY STATE REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATOR, AND TO THEN WRITE LETTERS TO EVERY NEWSPAPER WHO WILL PRINT MY LETTER. THIS IS A CRYING SHAME. I HAVE BEEN IN EXECUTIV

REAR WINDOW FELL OUT OF CONVERTIBLE TOP. *TR

BACK WINDSHIELD FELL OUT OF CAR. THE COMPANY HAS HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS FROM ALL THE INFORMATION I CAN GET ON IT. THE CAR ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT. NEVER HAVE I HAD A CAR TO LOSE BACK WINDSHIELD. I'M ON A WAITING LIST FOR A NEW TOP (THIS CAN'T BE REPAIR...HAS TO BE REPLACED) SINCE JULY. THE ESTIMATED TIME TO GET IT IN IS OCT. 29, 2009. THIS IS A DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I'M JUST LUCKY I WASN'T DRIVING WHEN IT POPPED OUT. *TR

I OWN A 2005 CROSSFIRE WITH 23300 MILES. MY IGNITION KEY BEGAN TO "STICK" WHEN STARTING THE CAR. IT STUCK ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO BUT I WAS ABLE TO START THE CARE AFTER 15 MINUTES OF TRYING. YESTERDAY THE IGNITION STUCK AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO START THE CAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A DEALER IN SAN JOSE CA. THE SERVICE WRITER TOLD ME HE HAD ANOTHER CROSSFIRE IN FOR SERVICE FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. *TR

2005 CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE, ALWAYS GARAGED. BACK WINDOW GLASS RELEASED FROM TOP. WARRANTY WILL NTO COVER EVEN THOUGH DEALERSHIP STATES KNOWN ISSUE. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING COULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS INJURY. REPLACEMENT COST IS $2200+ AS ALL REPAIR SHOPS STATED SAME DIAGS...CANNOT SIMPLY GLUE BACK IN AS WILL ONLY LAST A FEW MONTHS AT MOST. ALL SHOPS ALSO STATED THEY SEE THIS ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. THERE ARE LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF THESE COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE ON THE WEB. *TR

HEADLIGHT LENSES CLOUDY AND CRAZING. DEALER REFUSED TO REPLACE UNDER WARRANTY. DISTRICT MANAGER REFUSED TO REPLACE UNDER WARRANTY. LATER DIRECTED DEALER TO POLISH LENSES. MADE THEM WORSE. LATER OFFERED 50-50 COST SHARE. A. MY COST WOULD BE IN EXCESS OF $500.00 AND B. CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND IS APPARENTLY A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. NUMEROUS OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THEIR LIGHTS REPLACED BY DEALERS, APPEARS TO BE NO HARD AND FAST RULE. DISTRICT MANAGER IS TRYING BULLYING TACTICS. HE HAS NEVER SEEN THE CAR, EVEN THOUGH I TRIED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO MEET WITH HIM. HE IS UNAPPROACHABLE AND INCOMMUNICADO TO ANYONE OUTSIDE OF THE DEALER. I HAVE PHOTOS. I GAVE A PHOTO TO SERVICE MANAGER TO ATTEMPT TO GET THIS RESOLVED. DISTRICT MANAGER HAS NOT REPLIED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR WINDSHIELD BECAME DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH. SHE PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND NOTICED THAT THE WINDOW HAD SHATTERED INTO PIECES. SHE CALLED THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER, BUT NO ONE HAD THE PARTS AVAILABLE DUE TO A BACK ORDER. THE CONTACT BELIEVES THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE. SHE FURTHER STATED THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED OR THE PARTS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 49,000.

THE CHROME TRIM ON THE BACKSIDE OF MY 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE INTERIOR DOOR PULL IS PEELING AND BECOMING VERY SHARP. THIS OCCURS ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS. I RECENTLY SLICED MY FINGER OPEN WHILE CLOSING THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THERE IS A TSB OUT TO FIX THIS ISSUE, BUT SINCE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY CHRYSLER WILL DO NOTHING. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

THE "CLEAR" COVER OVER THE PROJECTION HEADLIGHTS ASSEMBLY AND YELLOW SIGNAL LIGHT HAS BECOME SEVERELY CLOUDED/FADED PARTICULARLY ON THE UPPER HALF OF THE COVER. THE SIGNAL LIGHT IS BECOMING OBSCURED BEHIND THE CLOUDINESS. THE CAR HAS VERY LITTLE MILEAGE AND THE DEFECT IS NOT THE RESULT OF ROAD DEBRIS DAMAGE (ROCKS/SAND). NO REPAIR WAS MADE BECAUSE THE DEALER BLAMES THE MANUFACTURER FOR DENYING CLAIM, AND THE MANUFACTURER SAYS IT IS UP TO THE DEALER TO PERFORM THE WORK AND PLACE A CLAIM. I BELIEVE IT TO BE A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT BECAUSE I HAVE COMPARED THE LENS ON MY CAR TO OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL (SOME OF WHICH WERE OLDER AND HAD MUCH MORE MILEAGE) AND YET ARE IN BETTER CONDITION THAN THE ONE ON MY CAR. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, THE VEHICLE HESITATED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE RPM'S REVVED AND THEN DECREASED, FOLLOWED BY THE ENGINE STALLING. THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL PRIOR TO THE STALLING. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER EIGHT TIMES FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE WIRING WAS ADJUSTED WITHIN THE COMPUTERIZED SYSTEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES, BUT THERE WERE NO RESOLUTIONS. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY INOPERABLE AND HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,556 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 69,650.

2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE FRONT WINDOW MOLDING FELL OFF AND HIT DRIVER. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE MOLDING FROM THE FRONT WINDOW FELL OFF AND HIT HIM WHILE HE WAS DRIVING WITH THE TOP DOWN. HE STATES THAT THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *KB

PLASTIC LENS COVERS ON HEAD LIGHTS HAS FADED TO A POINT WHERE LIGHT PERFORMANCE HAS DEGRADED. *TR

I OWN A 2005 CROSSFIRE LIMITED CONVERTIBLE. I HAVE HAD 3 INCIDENTS IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS WITH MY CAR NOT STARTING. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT GET THE PROBLEM TO REPEAT UNTIL THIS TIME. THEY SAID IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH AFTER FACTORY INSTALL OF A NEW STEREO SYSTEM CREATING A FUSE SHORTAGE, AND DRAINING THE BATTERY. IF THIS IS A TRUE PROBLEM FOR CHRYSLER CROSSFIRES THE CONSUMER NEEDS TO HAVE THIS INFORMATION KNOWN BEFORE PURCHASING, NOT AFTER THE PURCHASE. *JB

2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE WITH CONTINENTAL TIRES. AT 12000 MILES THE RIGHT REAR TIRE DEVELOPED A SIDE WALL BULGE ON THE INSIDE. I FELT THE BUMPING BUT DID NOT SEE THE PROBLEM. WHILE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE 70 THE TIRE BLEW OUT. THE DEALER CLAIMED ROAD HAZARD DAMAGE AND I HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW TIRE. AT 20300 MILES THE LEFT REAR TIRE DEVELOPED A BULGE ON THE INSIDE. THIS TIME I REMOVED THE TIRES TO LOOK FOR THE PROBLEM. THIS TIRE HAS NOT BLOWN OUT AND THE BULGE IS EVIDENT. AGAIN THE DEALER IS CLAIMING ROAD DAMAGE. TWO TIRES, SAME MANUFACTURER DEVELOPED THE SAME PROBLEM. IF TRULY WAS ROAD HAZARD WHY WAS THERE NO BULGES OR RUPTURES ON THE OUTSIDE SIDE WALL? *JB

THERE IS A DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL SHORT LOCATED WITHIN THE DASH BOARD AREA OF MY CROSSFIRE. THE ELECTRICAL SHORT COULD LEAD TO A HOT SPOT IN THE WIRING HARNESS, WHICH COULD LEAD TO A FIRE IN THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD AREA. IF THIS FIRE SHOULD HAPPEN WHILE THE AUTOMOBILE IS BEING STORED INSIDE MY HOME GARAGE, THE RESULTS WOULD BE CATASTROPHIC. AS ILLUSTRATED BY THE VIDEO I UPLOADED TO THE FOLLOWING URL LINK FOR YOUR VIEWING HTTP://PHOTOS.IMAGEEVENT.COM/FIREBASE/VIDEOS/CROSSFIRE%20TAPPING%20IN%20DASH%20SOUND.WMV , YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE ELECTRICAL SHORT OCCURRING, AND HEAR THE AUDIBLE CLICKING, AS THE SHORT IS OPENING AND CLOSING. PLEASE NOTE I FURNISHED TO DAIMLER CHRYSLER'S DISTRICT MANAGER A COPY OF THE SAME VIDEO, BY WAY OF A UPS DELIVERY. HE MADE THE CLAIM PEOPLE DOCTOR VIDEOS. THEREFORE, HE REFUSED TO REVIEW THE VIDEO. AT THIS TIME A HARD COPY OF THE VIDEO, AND THE ABOVE REFERENCED LINK, ARE BEING FORWARDED TO THE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS IN ALABAMA, FOR THEIR EVALUATION. *JB

I NOTIFIED DAIMLER-CHRYSLER (DC) THAT I HAD A PROBLEM WHEN MY DEALER TRIED TO FIX IT 4 TIMES TO NOT AVAIL. DC SENT A TECH TO LOOK AT MY CAR AND BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE MY PROBLEM (HAPPENS SPORADICALLY), THEY DEEMED MY CAR NORMAL. SO ANYONE EXPERIENCING THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM CAN EXPECT TO BE TOLD ITS NORMAL? "LACK OF POWER WHEN AT A STOP, EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT BE MASHING IN THE GAS PEDAL (PEDAL TO THE METAL)" SO IF YOU FEAR FOR YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND YOUR CAR WON'T MOVE, DON'T WORRY BECAUSE ITS NORMAL? I BELIEVE I HAVE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS CAR BECAUSE MULTIPLE TIMES I HAVE BEEN STOPPED ON THE ROAD AND THEN UNABLE TO MOVE BECAUSE MY CAR DOES NOT REGISTER THAT I'M PUSHING DOWN ON THE PEDAL. THIS PAST WEEK-END IT HAPPENED AND I HAD A TRUCK COMING AT ME BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE! THANKFULLY THE DRIVER SWERVED AROUND MY CAR WITH A LOT A HONKING AND SUCH. BUT BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT REPLICATE THAT PROBLEM, THEY SAY ITS FINE. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND I WON'T BE LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET OUT OF THE WAY! *NM

WE JUST BOUGHT A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE ROADSTER SRT6. LAST NIGHT (13 MAR 2006) WE WERE DRIVING THROUGH TOWN. WHEN MY WIFE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN THE CAR STALLED. TURNING THE KEY OFF AND STARTING AGAIN THE CAR STARTED AND RAN. THE CAR HAS ONLY 600 MILES. I READ WHERE OTHER CHRYSLERS HAVE SUDDEN STALLING PROBLEMS AND HAVE HAD RECALLS. NOT SURE IF THERE WERE VERY FEW CROSSFIRES AND IF THEY OUGHT TO BE INCLUDED IN A RECALL. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT UP HILLS OR AROUND CURVES, THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT SHINE ON THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION. THEY DETERMINED IT WAS A DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALERTED, NO REPAIRS WERE MADE.

ON THIS DATE A SECOND TRANSMISSION FAILURE WAS IN PROGRESS WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT PROPERLY INTO GEAR. THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED ON A TRIP TO SEE A RELATIVE IN POOR HEALTH AND ALONG WITH DEFECTIVE WHEEL BOLTS THAT CAUSED THE PASSENGER FRONT WHEEL TO BECOME SEPARATED FROM THE VEHICLE, LEFT ME STRANDED. THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE TRANSMISSION HAD BEEN GIVING ME TROUBLES AND HAS FAILED ALONG WITH NUMEROUS LARGE LEAKS NOTED ON SEPARATE OCCASIONS THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO REPAIR UNDER THE OEM WARRANTY. *JB

BOUGHT 05 CROSSFIRE, DOES NOT HAVE "Z" RATED TIRES. CHECKED ALL CROSSFIRES ON LOT - NONE EQUIPPED WITH CORRECT TIRES! *NM

THE CONVERTIBLE TOP WOULD NOT OPEN, THE REAR SPOILER WOULD NOT OPERATE AND THE KEYLESS ENTRY WOULD NOT OPEN TO LET ME IN THE CAR. AFTER ATTEMPTING TO REPLACE 3 DIFFERENT PARTS OVER 4 VISITS THEY DETERMINED THERE WAS A PINCHED WIRE AND REPLACED IT, FIXING ALL THE PROBLEMS AT ONCE. *NM

DT: AIRBAG ON DRIVER'S SIDE CURTAIN DEPLOYED WHEN VEHICLE HIT SOMETHING ON THE ROAD. SHE WAS GOING ABOUT 60 MPH. DEALER SAID THE MANUFACTURER TOLD THEM THAT SHE MUST HAVE HIT SOMETHING WHICH CAUSED HER AIR BAG TO DEPLOY AND THEY CONSIDERED IT A COLLISION. MANUFACTURER SAID THE SAME THING. CALLER WAS INJURED BY AIRBAG.*AK

THE CONVERTIBLE TOP WILL NOT OPEN WHEN THE RED LIGHT IS LIT ON THE REAR SPOILER BUTTON. IF YOU DRIVE 75 FEET OR SO THE RED LIGHT GOES OFF ON THE SPOILER BUTTON AND THEN THE TOP WILL OPEN. THE TOP ALSO WILL NOT CLOSE WHEN THIS LIGHT IS LIT UNLESS YOU DRIVE UNTIL IT GOES OUT.

DEVELOPED A SLOW LEAK IN THE INNER SIDE WALL OF PASSENGER SIDE REAR TIRE OF MY SPORT CONTACT TIRE. THERE WAS ONLY 6000 MILES ON IT. THE TIRE WAS NOT REPAIRABLE AND HAD TO BE RELPLACED. THIS IS MY SECOND TIRE TO REPLACE ON THIS CAR. AT 3000 MILES I HAD A BLOW OUT OF THE INNER SIDE WALL TO THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR TIRE. THE DEALER STATES THAT SIDE WALL DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRENTY. AT ABOUT 310.00 DOLLARS PER TIRE IT GET PRICEY.

FAULTY TIRES ON 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVETIBLE. CONTINENTAL TIRES CAME STANDARD ON THIS $40,000 CAR. WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY WERE "RUN FLATS". NOT TRUE! THE CAR HAD LESS THAN 1,000 WHEN MINOR ROAD DEBRIS CAUSED THE LEFT REAR TIRE TO GO FLAT. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED AND THE TIRE EXPLODED WHEN TIRE STORE TRIED TO REPAIR IT. ABOUT A MONTH LATER A SMALL NAIL PIERCED THE "SIDE" OF THE RIGHT REAR AND WHEN TAKEN TO BE REPAIRED, THE TIRE SPLIT WHEN TAKEN OFF THE WHEEL. CHRYSLER, CONTINENTAL TIRE AND JIM ARCHER CHRYSLER DID NOTHING. WE ENDED UP REPLACING ALL 4 TIRES WITH MICHELINS AT A VERY BIG EXPENSE, SINCE THE CAR COME WITH NO SPARE. NOTHING BUT A CAN OF FIX FLAT. JIM ARCHER CHRYSLER THREATED TO CALL THE POLICE, WHEN WE APPROACHED THEN REGARDING THE TIRES. ABSOLUTELY NO HELP!

THE CONSUMER HAD DIFFICULTY DOWN SHIFTING HIS 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE IN THE SNOW. *JB INCLUDING WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN REVERSE, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. THE DEALER TOLD THE CONSUMER THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED TO BE DRIVEN IN THE SNOW. IT WAS CONSIDERED A HIGH PERFORMANCE VEHICLE, IT WAS LOW TO THE GROUND, REAR WHEEL DRIVE. THE TIRES WERE ALSO HIGH PERFORMANCE AND THE TREAD PATTERN WAS NO GOOD FOR THE SNOW AND/OR LOTS OF RAIN. *SC *JB

WHILE DRIVING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THE DRIVER WAS NOT ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO MOVE INTO ANY GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HIS HOME. *AK *SC *JB
