2004 Chrysler Concorde

I WAS DRIVING WEST ON HWY 8, GOING 5-10 MILES UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT AND A VEHICLE AT A SIDE ROAD WAS STOPPED AT THE STOP SIGN. HOWEVER, HE THEN PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME INSTEAD OF WAITING, SO IT WAS HIS FAULT. HE EVEN SAID IT WAS HIS FAULT, AND HE WAS IN A HURRY AS IT WAS HIS LAST MEAL TO DELIVER FOR MEALS-ON-WHEELS. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH BACK PROBLEMS AND MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS EVER SINCE, AND STILL TRYING TO WORK. ALSO, THE POLICE REPORT SAID THE AIR BAG WAS DEPLOYED, HOWEVER THEY DID NOT COMPLETELY DEPLOY; THEY STARTED TO BUT THAT WAS ALL, AND PICTURES WILL PROVE THE AIR BAGS DID NOT WORK PROPERLY. I DO NOT KNOW THE RECALL NUMBER FOR OUR 2004 CHRYSLER CONCORDE. PS: LOOKS LIKE THE POLICE REPORT IS MORE THAN 5MB SO HOW DO I SEND THAT TO YOU? *DT

WHEN I TRY TO BRAKE AT A STOP LIGHT, MY CAR TRIES TO QUIT. WHEN I SLOW BEHIND ANOTHER VEHICLE, MY VEHICLE LUNGES UPON CONTINUING AGAIN. I HAVE HAD THE TIMING CHECKED, BUT THAT IS NOT MY PROBLEM. I CAN SMELL GASOLINE WHEN MY VEHICLE ACTS UP. I FEAR FOR MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF MY 12 YEAR OLD SON. I AM A SINGLE PARENT WORKING FOR $ 9.00 AN HOUR. I NEED MY CAR TO GET TO WORK, BUT I'M AFRAID OF IT, AND I JUST DON'T HAVE THE EXTRA MONEY TO HAVE IT CHECKED AND REPAIRED! I THOUGHT PERHAPS IT MIGHT HAVE A RECALL ON IT, BECAUSE SO MANY OTHERS DO!

MAY 21, 2013 AT ABOUT 8 AM I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON, IT STARTLED & SHAKEN ME TO THE POINT THAT IT ALMOST CAUSE ME TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT, I THOUGHT THAT I HAD A TIRE BLOW OUT OR GUNSHOT TO MY WINDSHIELD BECAUSE I SEEN A FLASH, I PULLED OVER AND EXIT TO THE NEXT OFF RAMP TO CALM MYSELF FOR ABOUT 25 MIN THEN DROVE MY CAR TO THE CAR DEALER SERVICE AREA HOPING THAT THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG WOULDN'T DEPLOY ON MY FACE AS I DROVE. I AM VERY CONCERNED AND HOPE TO HAVE SOME ONE LOOK INTO THIS VERY DANGEROUS FAULTY AIRBAG ISSUE THAT I'VE ENCOUNTERED AND FOR THE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. PLEASE CONTACT ME REGARDING THIS COMPLAINT. THANK YOU *TR

THE CAR HEAD LIGHTS & DASH LIGHTS DIM WHEN DRIVING. IF YOU PLAY WITH CONTROL SWITCH IT SOMETIMES MAKES THEM WORK RIGHT. CAR STALLS AND DOESN'T WANT TO RESTART. WE HAVE DONE THE RECALL FOR EXHAUST. THE A/C ALL THE SUDDEN STARTED MAKING NOISES WHEN STALLING AND NOW DOES NOT WORK MAKES A HISSING SOUND. I HAVE KEPT THIS CAR IN GREAT SHAPE AND HAVE IT MAINTAINED & SERVICED REGULARLY. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL SENSORS REPLACED AND THE ENGINE LIGHT REFUSES TO GO OFF. I PUT IT IN THE SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE GAS CAP WAS LOOSE. THAT WASN'T THE CASE, CAR IS NOW SITTING IN DRIVEWAY UNABLE TO START. HAD THE HEADS REMOVED AND FUEL INJECTORS CLEANED AND CAR STILL WON'T RUN. *TR

I WAS BACKING MY CAR OUT OF DRIVEWAY WHEN BACK OF SEAT COLLAPSED AND I FOUND MYSELF ON MY BACK SEEING STARS AND MY CAR WAS STILL MOVING . I WAS ABLE TO PULL MYSELF UP AND STOP THE CAR ON THE ROAD WITHOUT BEING HIT. I RECEIVED A CONCUSSION AND A HEADACHE THAT IS STILL WITH ME NOW OCTOBER 6, 2011. CHRYSLER CANNOT FIND A NEW SEAT FRAME AND WANTS TO PUT IN A USED ONE FROM A USED OR WRECKED CAR WITH NO WARRANTY. I CANNOT AFFORD A CAR PAYMENT FOR ANOTHER CAR AND MY CAR IS PAID FOR. I AM 67 YEARS OLD! I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR WITH A JUNK PART IN IT. I HAVE MISSED WORK FROM THE CONCUSSION AND NOW HAVE NO WAY TO WORK UNLESS I WALK OR BEG A RIDE.. *TR

ON OUR SECOND ENGINE NOW. THE SECOND ENGINE IS NOW DOING THE SAME AS THE FIRST BEFORE IT QUIT. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW ON AND NO ONE CAN SEEM TO TELL ME WHY THE CAR KEEPS STALLING WHILE DRIVING AT A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND CONDITIONS. WHEN IT STALLS THE CAR IS STILL PARTIALLY ON. THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT AND I CAN NOT ACCELERATE BUT THERE ARE STILL A COUPLE OF LIGHTS ON THE DISPLAY THE SAME ONES THAT TURN ON WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY HALF WAY FORWARD. I THINK THE ELECTRICAL IS STILL ON BUT THE ENGINE IS OFF. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? I AM NOT A MECHANIC, BUT THEY CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT EITHER SO I GUESS THAT WOULDN'T HELP! THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODE REFERS TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IT IS FINE. THIS IS A CONCORDE LXI ACTUALLY SHOULD BE CALLED POS INSTEAD OF LXI. WE HAVE REPLACED THE CAM SENSORS, THE CAM SHAFT, BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, BATTERY CABLES, THE TRANSMISSION, AND THE ENGINE. IT STILL QUITS SEVERAL TIMES A MONTH. THIS ALL BEGAN BEFORE THE WARRANTY WENT OUT, IT PAID TO REPLACE THE FIRST CAM SENSOR. THIS WAS MY FIRST CAR AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AFTER THE WARRANTY WORE OUT. I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. MECHANICS TELL ME TO GET A NEW CAR I CAN'T AFFORD ONE.

ON NOVEMBER 4TH, 2009, I WAS PULLING INTO PARKING POSITION WITH MY WHEEL TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID COLLISION WITH THE VEHICLE IN THE PARKING SPACE NEXT TO ME. AS THE TURNING CONTINUED I HEARD A LOT POP SOUND AND IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THIS SOUND WAS LOSS OF WHEEL CONTROL. I HAD TO SLAM THE BRAKES BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAD STARTED TOWARDS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. WHICH IS THE CAR PARKED NEXT TO THE PARKING LOT I WAS TRYING TO PARK INTO. OBVIOUSLY THERE WAS A FAILURE IN THE STEERING COLUMN OR SHAFT. THANKFULLY, I WAS TRAVELING AT A SLOW RATE OF SPEED. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR BEFORE I ENDED UP HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. *TR

I OWN A 2004 CONCORDE. I JUST HAVE HAD RECALL WORK DONE ON THIS CAR. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND ASK THEM IF THERE WAS ANY RECALLS ON THIS CAR BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN STALLING WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. IF YOU OWN ONE OF THESE CARS CALL YOUR DEALERSHIP. THE RECALL NUMBER IS 18J18182 RECALL J18. THE RECALL REPROGRAMS THE COMPUTER.

I HAVE A 2004 CONCORDE LXI. I ALSO HAVE HAD VERY MANY TROUBLES WITH MY CAR STALLING WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND CONDITIONS. THE ENGINE WILL LOSE POWER AND IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME BEFORE IT STARTS. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH SEVERAL MODELS THAT CHRYSLER HAS PRODUCED. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *TR

MY CAR STARTED MAKING A LOT OF CLUNKING AND GRINDING NOISE WHEN I WOULD TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AND WHEN I WOULD GO OVER A BUMP WHILE TURNING, SO I TOOK MY CAR IN TO A CAR SHOP AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS THE TIE RODS ON MY CAR AND THAT IF I DIDN'T GET IT FIXED THAT I WOULD MORE THAN LIKELY HAVE BAD ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE STEERING WOULD LOCK UP, SO I AM HAVING MY CAR REPAIRED AT MY COST, WHEN CHRYSLER SHOULD HAVE TAKEN CARE OF THIS WHEN IT WAS FIRST BROUGHT TO THERE ATTENTION. MY CAR IS A 2004 CHRYSLER CONCORD WITH ONLY 61744 MILES ON IT, I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY CAR AND HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THE TIE RODS FIXED BEFORE I GET KILLED, MY APPOINTMENT IS NOV 18, 2008. *TR

MY 2004 CHRYSLER CONCORDE HAS ENGINE FAILURE. I HAVE CAME ACROSS LOTS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE 2.7 ENGINES. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR 1 YEAR AGO AND CHRYSLER HAS TOLD ME SINCE THE CAR IS OLDER THAN THREE YEARS THEY ARE NOT LIABLE. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO HAS BEEN RUDE TO ME AND HAS LIED TO CHRYSLERS CUSTOMER SERVICE. I HAVE GOTTEN OIL CHANGES BUT OF COURSE I DON'T HAVE RECEIPTS. I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS THEY SHOULD. *TR
