2004 Chrysler Crossfire

While cruising at 55 miles per hour, an unexpected occurrence took place – the engine abruptly ceased to function. I found myself on a two-lane highway in the midst of a construction zone, where the highway was reduced to a single lane, flanked by barriers. In a situation devoid of power assistance, I navigated the immobile vehicle between these barriers to reach a secure location, narrowly evading a potential accident.This issue is perilous and disturbingly common among these vehicles, yet it lacks a definitive diagnosis or solution. Even the computer scans fail to pinpoint the root cause behind this disruptive problem. I had no choice but to have the vehicle towed, and an automotive technician subsequently replaced the crank position sensor, just one of the many potential culprits in this recurring issue. Remarkably, the car operated without issue for two months, only to once again shut down without warning at high speed. Then, quite unexpectedly, approximately ten minutes later, the car miraculously restarted. This issue is perilous and disturbingly common among these vehicles, yet it lacks a definitive diagnosis or solution. It is imperative to stress that this problem is widely recognized and acknowledged, with countless owners repeatedly seeking assistance from dealerships, yet the issue remains unresolved. The gravity of this situation cannot be overstated, as these vehicles are prone to sudden shutdowns while traveling at high speeds. Urgent attention and action are needed to investigate and rectify this life-threatening concern.

The thin foil film used on interior of car is flaking on inside of drivers door handle, of which I was unaware. Cut my left ring finger while I was driving at speed on a 2 lane country road. So startled me I went left of center before I could regain control and would have cause a head on crash had someone been coming the other way!!! Very painful deep laceration!

DEAR SIR OR MADAM: MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING TO THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA WHEN SHE HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE ON HER REAR, PASSENGER TIRE. SHE WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AS SOON AS THE FAILURE HAPPENED. THE FAILURE WAS VERY ODD. THE RUBBER COMPLETELY SEPARATED AROUND THE RIM. A CIRCLE APPROXIMATELY 30MM REMAINED ON THE RIM. ALL OF THE RUBBER COMPLETELY SEPARATED MAKING A PERFECT CUT 360 DEG. AROUND THE FRONT FACE OF THE TIRE. AFTER PERUSING THE INTERNET, I WAS UNABLE TO FIND A SIMILAR FAILURE MODE. THUS, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE OTHER TIRES ON THE CAR.

WHEN TRYING TO START CAR IGNITION IS STUCK CANNOT TURN MOTOR ON CAR WAS STATIONERY *TR

THIS IS MY 2ND REQUEST. I HAVE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS & THEY HAVE BEEN THIS WAY SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW. IT ONLY HAS 40K MILES ON IT. I HAVE TRIED CONTACTING CHRYSLER NUMEROUS TIMES, THEY HAVE NOT REPLIED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE GONE TO NUMEROUS DEALERSHIPS, PRIVATE REPAIRS AND PUT OVER $2500 OF MY OWN MONEY INTO THIS ISSUE, BUT IT STILL ISN'T WORKING ETC. EVERYONE SAYS THIS CALL SHOULD BE RECALLED. I NEED HELP!

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND ENGINE SUDDENLY CUT OFF AND I HAD TO PUSH IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I COULD HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED EASILY. THERE WAS NO POWER AND ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER, ONLY ELECTRONICS WOULD LIGHT UP AND ENGINE FAN WOULD RUN AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED.I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY CHRYSLER/MERCEDES WOULD NOT HAVE A RECALL ON THIS YET. APPARENTLY IT IS THE RCM MODULE THAT HAS BAD SOLDER POINTS SO I HAVE HEARD. VERY DANGEROUS THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO A VEHICLE WITH UNDER 100K MILES. IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AND LEFT ME STRANDED A COUPLE TIMES, AND THIS TIME IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL SO I HAD TO GET A TOW TRUCK TO TOW IT 27 MILES HOME. IF THIS HAPPENED TO A NEW DRIVER OR ELDERLY PERSON THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS. I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP OR DRIVING THROUGH ATLANTA OR SOMETHING.

I HAD A ACCIDENT ON 09/07/2017, AND THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. DUE TO THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAGS SMALL SILVER IRON PARTICLES FLEW ACROSS MY FACE AND ARMS THAT CAME OUT OF THE AIRBAGS , AND I HAVE TO SEVERE BURNS FROM THE AIR BAGS,

AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS DEFECTIVE BY NUMEROUS MECHANICS.
