1995 Chrysler Lebaron

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR MADE A LOT OF NOISE WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING. DEALERS MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT BOTTOM HINGE BROKE OFF THE DOOR, AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.*AK CONSUMER THOUGHT THERE WAS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE DOOR AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. WITH A REPAIR BILL OF OVER $2000.00 DOLLARS, THE CONSUMER FELT CHRYSLER SHOULD'VE ACCEPTED RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DOOR. THE CONSUMER HAS OWNED A '49 FORD CONVERTIBLE, '65 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE, '86 PONTIAC CONVERTIBLE AND '89 CHRYSLER CONVERTIBLE BEFORE THIS CONVERTIBLE IN QUESTION. IN ADDITION, SHE NOTED THAT HAVING TO REPLACED AN ENTIRE DOOR WAS SOMETHING SHE DIDN'T THINK WOULD HAPPEN IN HER WILDEST DREAMS. *PH *NLM

THE CLAMP THAT TIGHTENS THE FLEXIBLE FUEL HOSE AT THE RIGHT FRONT FENDER HOSE LOOSEND 3 TIMES, AFTER THE CLAMP WAS REPLACED, THE HOSE DEVELOPED A LEAK AT THE HOSE. *AK *TS *JB

CONSUMER STATES THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT STAYS IN RECLINING POSITION.*AK

DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S FRONT SEATS ARE STUCK IN THE RECLINING MODE. CAUSE IS UNKNOWN. *AK

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR HINGE HAS FAILED. DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. SINCE DOOR HAS "FALLED" AND IS NOT ALIGNED, THE OPENING ACTION HAS CRUMPLED THE FRONT QUARTERPANEL, PAINT IS NOW FLAWED. NOW A REPAINT AND BODY WORK IS NEEDED. HAVE NOTICED OTHER LEBARONS WITH THIS SAME TELL-TALE DAMAGE; THIS IS EVIDENTLY A DESIGN DEFECT. I UNDERSTAND THAT JEEP PRODUCTS SUFFER FROM THIS FLAW ALSO.

VEHICLE DROPS OUT OF THIRD GEAR TO SECOND GEAR SLOWING VEHICLE DOWN. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. VEHICLE IS ON SECOND REPAIR. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. PH *TS

CONSUMER STATES DOOR HANGS DOOR TOO FAR CAUSING DOOR NOT TO CLOSE CONSUMER WOULD HAVE TO LIFT DOOR UP TO CLOSE PROPERLY. DEALER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION.*JB

LATCH PLATE IN DRIVER'S SEAT HAS CRACKED WHILE THE CONSUMER WAS DRIVING.*AK

THE LENS ON THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS BECOME VERY CLOUDED. THEREFORE RESTRICTING FORWARD VISIBILITY DURING NIGHT TIME DRIVING, THUS CREATING A HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITION. I HAVE NOTICED SEVERAL OTHER VECHICLES OF THIS MAKE AND MODEL WITH THE SAME CONDITION. YET I HAVE SEEN OTHERS WITH CLEAR LENS. *AK

TRANSMISSION HANGS IN SECOND GEAR WHILE CITY DRIVING, WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF SECOND UNTIL SHUTTING VEHICLE OFF FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS.SAFETY CONCERN IS NOT KNOWING YOU CANT ACCELERATE TO MERGE INTO HIGHWAY TRAFFIC UNTIL YOU ARE ALREADY ON THE EXIT TRYING TO GET UP TO HIGHWAY SPEED AND CANT GET BEYOND SECOND GEAR. *AK

CONSUMER WAS IN AN ACCIDENT AND AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. CONSUMER STATED THAT INSURANCE COMPANY AND DEALERSHIP DID NOT THINK THAT AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. LICENSE PLATE WAS BENT.*AK

DRIVER'S DOOR CRACKED OFF WHERE HINGES MEET THE SHEET METAL, BOTH UPPER AND LOWER HINGES ARE INVOLVED. DOOR CREAKED 2 DAYS BEFORE. I WAS GOING TO LUBRICATE THE HINGES, BUT I SAW CRACKING AROUND THE TOP HINGE. THE NEXT DAY, YESTERDAY, I TOOK THE CAR TO A REPUTABLE LOCAL BODY SHOP. ON THE WAY I STOPPED FOR LUNCH. WHEN I GINGERLY OPENED THE DOOR TO GET OUT, THERE WAS A SOUND. I ONLY OPENED IT ABOUT ONE THIRD OF THE WAY AND SQUEEZED OUT. THE DOOR WAS NOW HANGING VISIBLY WRONG, AND HAD PUSHED IN THE SHEET METAL OF THE BODY PANEL IN FRONT OF IT. NOW I ONLY USE THE 1 OTHER DOOR, AND I KEEP THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCKED. THE BODY SHOP OWNER SAID THAT HE HAD WORKED ON QUITE A FEW JUST THE SAME AS MINE, HE EVEN FINISHED MY STATEMENT TO HIM WHEN HE HEARD CHRYSLER CONVERTIBLE DOOR PROBLEM. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD! BODYSHOP GUY SAID A NEW DOOR NEEDED AND ITS EXPENSIVE.
