This Problem Across All Years
ON MY WAY TO WORK HAVING JUST PASSED SEVERAL CARS, TRAVELING @70+ MILES/HR. ON THE INTERSTATE, I NOTICED WOBBLING & THE LOSS OF CONTROL & IMMEDIATELY MOVED TO THE RIGHT LANE & STEERED TOWARDS THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY, THANKING GOD FOR NO ACCIDENT. I PUT THE GEAR IN~PARK~TURNED THE IGNITION SWITCH OFF & CHECKED THE EXTERIOR TO NOTICE MY NEWLY PURCHASED REAR PASSENGER TIRE WAS PREMATURELY BLOWN(RECENTLY PURCHASED TIRES). I CALLED A TOW TRUCK(2ND TIME THIS MARCH MONTH BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T CRANK IN MY DRIVEWAY): UPON THEIR INTERSTATE ARRIVAL, I LEARNED THAT THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM/ENGINE HAD SHUTDOWN WITH AN 'INABILITY TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL GEAR OR ANY GEAR IN ORDER FOR THEM TO TOW IT. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THE ENGINE HAS LOCKED LIKE THIS. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 8(EIGHT) MONTHS NOW SINCE MARCH 23, 2015 & THE CHRYSLER MECHANICS ARE IN 'AWE' AS IT SEEMS TO BE IRREPAIRABLE. I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT TRANSPORTATION SINCE MARCH, 2015. CHRYSLER COMPANY, PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM: I & OTHERS COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED ON THE INTERSTATE & I HAVE BEEN TOWED THREE TIMES BECAUSE THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY SHUTDOWN, BUT THIS HAS BEEN THE LONGEST & WORST. IN THE PAST, I HAVE HAD THE HOOD-CEILING, IGNITION SWITCH REPLACED & BEFORE THIS, I WAS ABOUT TO HAVE THE SILVER OUTSIDE WINDOW BORDERS REPLACED. THERE HAS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS ELECTRONIC SYSTEM JUST SHUTTING DOWN WHILE I AM IN THE MIDST OF DRIVING AS THIS BEING THE 3RD TIME SHUTTING DOWN & I DO HAVE A NEW BATTERY, THEREFORE THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. HELP! HELP! HELP! [NOTE: CROSSFIRE IN SHOP 8+ MONTHS/ I AM WITHOUT MY CAR! PLEASE LET ME HEAR FROM YOU CONCERNING THIS SERIOUS & DANGEROUS MATTER! IT IS THE MERCY OF GOD THAT THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT DURING THE RUSH/WORK MORNING TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE, MONDAY, MARCH 23, 2015. HELP! PLEASE!

I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR. THE CUP HOLDER IS STUCK IN THE VERTICAL POSITION RIGHT WHERE MY ELBOW GOES WHEN CONTROLLING THE SHIFTER THUS MAKING IT DIFFICULT AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS TO DO SO. I WENT ON THE INTERNET TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS FROM CROSSFIRE OWNERS OF ALL YEARS ABOUT THIS VERY THING. CHRYSLER WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT IT INCLUDING JUST DISCONNECTING THE SPRING ON THE CUP HOLDER SO THAT IT WILL STAY DOWN. THE FIX IS OVER $300 IF YOU GET CHRYSLER TO DO IT, AND THEY INSTALL THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART AGAIN. NOT A GOOD FIX. I THINK IT IS DANGEROUS, VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND ALL OF THE POWER TRAIN POSITION LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COULD ALSO FEEL A VIBRATION IN THE SHIFT HANDLE. AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO START THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE RESPONDED HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WAS NOT ABLE TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK. AFTER SOME TIME, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF THE LOWER GEARS WHILE IN MOTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THREE DIFFERENT DEALERS FOR DIAGNOSIS BUT NO CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE COULD BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

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

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
