2006 Chrysler Crossfire Roadster problems

“THE REAR GLASS WINDOW FALLS OUT OF THE CONVERTIBLE ROOF AND INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THIS IS CHRONIC WITH MOST CROSSFIRE ROADSTERS. EASILY INVESTIGATED AND VERIFIED. IT CAN HAPPEN WHILE MOVING OR STANDING STILL.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE REAR GLASS WINDOW SEPARATED FROM THE CONVERTIBLE ROOF TOP AND FELL INSIDE THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SZOTT M-59 DODGE LLC (2565 E. HIGHLAND RD. HIGHLAND CHARTER TWP, MI) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONVERTIBLE ROOF TOP WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000. *LN”

“THIS 2006 CROSSFIRE ROADSTER IS GARAGE KEPT. THE CAR WAS PARKED, WHEN THE GLASS SEPARATED ON THREE SIDES FROM THE CLOTH CONVERTIBLE TOP. FAILURE OF THE REAR WINDOW GLASS APPEARS TO BE DUE TO LACK OF ATTACHMENT, OTHER THAN ADHESIVE GLUE. THE CLOTH CONVERTIBLE TOP IS IN GOOD CONDITION. THIS POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD TO THE PUBLIC, CONSIDERING THE VEHICLE IS RATED AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 150 MPH. IT APPEARS THAT CHRYSLER HAS RECALLED SOME 2005 MODELS WHICH HAVE THE SAME TYPE CONVERTIBLE TOPS AND GLASS WINDOWS, MADE BY KARMANN. AS THE SAFETY ISSUES CONTINUE I WOULD HOPE THAT CHRYSLER WOULD RECALL ALL OF THESE DEFECTIVE PARTS BEFORE THE PUBLIC IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. I AWAIT AN URGENT RESPONSE FROM CHRYSLER TO FIX THIS HAZARDOUS PROBLEM ME. PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH YOUR BEST EFFORTS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT AND KEEP EVERYONE SAFE. 2-13-18 DISAPPOINTED DRIVER IN EAST TENNESSEE”

“I WAS DRIVING THE CROSSFIRE ONE EVENING AND IT SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF, THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WENT OFF AS WELL. THE CAR ROLLED TO A STOP BLOCKING ALL THE TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. I TRIED TO RESTART THE ENGINE AND NOTHING HAPPENED, I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR JUMP STARTED, WHICH TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. I HAD NO PROBLEMS OR INDICATIONS THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG TILL THIS HAPPENED. MECHANICS HAVE PUT IN A NEW BATTERY, A CRANK POSITION SENSOR, AND A CAM POSITION SENSOR ON THE CAR. IT STARTED ONCE AFTER THAT, RAN FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN STOPPED. AFTER THAT IT WON'T START, EVEN WHEN BEING JUMPED. TRYING TO GET A ECM FROM THE DEALER. DEALER SAID THE COST IS $2,700.00, AND ORDERS ARE PENDING UNTIL JULY 1, 2019 BECAUSE OF SUPPLIER CHANGE. PLUS THERE IS A FLASHING CHARGE OF $147.00 TO RESET THIS ITEM FOR THE CAR. OTHER INTERNET USERS HAVE REPORTED HAVING THEIR CARS SUDDENLY STOP RUNNING WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAYS ALSO.”
