“ON JULY 10 WHEN I LEFT THE OFFICE, I WAS DRIVING THE CAR TO GO HOME IN THE AFTERNOON AND I NOTICED A STRANGE NOISE COMING FROM THE BACK SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IN THE RED TRAFFIC LIGHT STOP I INSPECTED THE REAR GLASS AND I REALIZED IT IS DETACHED ALMOST 70%, MAINLY THE BOTTOM PORTION, JUST THE UPPER SIDE WAS ATTACHED. I DROVE CAREFULLY ABOUT 5 MILES TO GET HOME AND I WAS WORRIED BECAUSE THE GLASS CAN FALL OFF FROM THE CAR AND HAVE AN INCIDENT WHILE DRIVING IN THE RUSH HOUR IN THE AVENUE I ALWAYS TAKE (45 MILES/HR). I CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR IN THIS CONDITION. I INVESTIGATED AND I SEE SIMILAR REPORTS ABOUT THIS REAR GLASS COMING OFF.”

“WE OWN AN 2008 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE WITH 8500 MILES. THE REAR WINDOW CAME COMPLETELY LOOSE. I HAVE TALKED TO CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY HAVE REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS TOP. THE CROSSFIRE HAS ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED. IT DOES NOT STAY OUTSIDE. HAYS CHRYSLER WILL NOT HELP EITHER. I SPOKE TO A LOCAL CONVERTIBLE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THE WINDOW COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. I OWN AN 05 CROSSFIRE THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND CHRYSLER REPLACED THE TOP. IT MAKES NO SENSE ONE WOULD BE REPAIRED AND THE OTHER REJECTED. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH MANY OTHERS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM FOR ME AND SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO!!”
