1995 CHRYSLER CIRRUS Service Brakes, Hydraulic Problems

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1995 CHRYSLER CIRRUS. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START HER VEHICLE, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A MECHANIC AND HE STATED THAT THE MODULATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE WORK WAS PERFORMED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED A MONTH LATER. THERE IS A ROD ON THE REAR DRIVER SIDE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO HOLD THE WHEEL IN PLACE, BUT IT HAS RUSTED. THE ROD FELL APART AND THE CONTACT HAD IT REPLACED. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, SHE NOTICED THAT THE BRAKELINE WAS LEAKING BRAKE FLUID ONTO THE GROUND. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND HAD IT REPAIRED. THE VIN, ENGINE SIZE, NUMBER OF CYLINDERS, POWERTRAIN, AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 63,742.

I'VE HAD MY ENGINE CHECKED BACK IN MAY OF 05 BY THE DEALER THEY SAID IT WAS ENGINE MISFIRE,THE DISTRIBUTOR IGNITION WAS BAD. THEY CHARGED ME $321 JUST TO CHECK IT,THEN I PAID $276 TO GET IT FIXED. THE CAR HAS HAD A DRIP EVER SINCE. IN THE PAST 6 TO 8 MONTHS OR LONGER I'VE HAD A DRIP FROM THE ENGINE THAT CAN'T BE FIXED , I RECENTLY HAD MY CAR WORKED ON IT WAS IN THE SHOP FOR A MONTH IT COST ME $2500 TO REPAIR AND IT STILL HAS A LEAK. IT'S BACK THERE AGAIN BECAUSE IT NEEDS THAT EXPANSION PLUG AND RETAINING BRACKET THAT ONLY THE DEALER CAN PROVIDE ACCORDING TO EVERY SITE BUT THE PLACE THE CAR COMES FROM. I'M ALSO HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WHICH I'VE HAD SINCE I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE. BECAUSE I NEED A SHIFT MECHANISM AND CABLE FROM THE DEALER ACCORDING TO EVERY SITE BUT WHERE THE CAR COMES FROM. A FEW OF THE PROBLEMS THAT ARE ON THE LIST I'VE EITHER GOT FIXED OR GOT AN ESTIMATE FOR.(ONE ) OF THE PROBLEMS ON THE LIST ,THE DEALER SENT SOMETHING IN THE MAIL AND I GOT IT TAKEN CARE OF BY THE DEALER,IT WAS THE( TRANS. FLOOR SHIFTER). ALSO ON YOUR LIST! I'VE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY TO REPAIR THIS VEHICLE FOR MISTAKES MADE BY THE DEALER AND IT'S NOT FAIR . I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED AND THE RECALL PROBLEM FIXED. *NM

THIS FORM IS NOT USER FRIENDLY. YOU ARE PRECLUDED FROM GOING BACK TO PREVIOUS SCREENS WITHOUT LOSING INFORMATION. I JUST FILLED OUT A FORM COMPLETELY, AND WAS CUT OFF BEFORE I COULD ADD COMMENTS! PLEASE CROSS REFERENCE MY INFORMATION. MY ADDITONAL COMMENT IS THAT GIVEN THAT MY CAR IS LESS THAN 4 YEARS OLD, I FEEL THAT I HAVE HAD MAJOR REPAIR ITEMS, SUCH AS A/C COMPRESSOR/ BRAKE ROTORS/TIE RODS). IF A CAR IS MADE TO LAST, THESE PROBLEMS SHOULD NOT ARISE. THE DEALERSHIPS VIEW IS THAT A 4 YEAR CAR WITH 27,000 MILES IS WORN OUT AND THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS. MY OTHER CAR IS A SATURN AND AFTER 6 YEARS I HAVE HAD ZERO REPAIRS ASIDE FROM NORMAL MAINTENANCE. CHRYSLER MAKES BAD PRODUCTS, AND DOESN'T STAND BEHIND THEIR CARS. PLEASE BE ON ALERT THAT THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY PROBLEMS ARISING WITH CIRRUS MODELS. I HAVE DEALT WITH TAMIAMI CHRYSLER IN MIAMI 305 266-5500 WHO ARE INCOMPETENT, LIARS AND CROOKS.
