NHTSA Complaint #10204420 — 1993 CHRYSLER CONCORDE

MY SON HAS A 1993 CONCORDE, AND HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH THE STEERING. VIBRATION IN STEERING, AND TO MUCH PLAY. WHEN HE INFORMED ME OF THE PROBLEM HE WAS HAVING, I TOLD HIM TO TURN HIS STEERING WHEEL, THEN HE TURNED IT THE OTHER WAY, BOTH TIE RODS LOOKED ODD. I TOLD HIM DON'T TAKE THE CAR FAR. AFTER HE LEFT, I NOTICED ODD MARKS LEFT IN THE DIRT IN MY DRIVEWAY. THE DRIVER SIDE TIRE, LEFT LARGER AND HEAVIER IMPRINT THEN THE PASSENGER SIDE. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THIS, AND FOUND THIS HTTP://WWW.DAIMLERCHRYSLERVEHICLEPROBLEMS.COM. AS I WAS READING THE INFORMATION I WAS AMAZED, THEN READING FURTHER I NOTICED THEY EXPLAIN THE PROBLEMS AND WHAT HAPPENS. GRANTED THE CAR HAS 135,000 MILES ON IT, IF THE ORIGINAL OWNER HAD A PROBLEM AND HAD IT FIXED OR BAND AIDED ADD ANOTHER 65,000 MILES TO A PROBLEM THAT ALREADY EXISTS, IT WOULD BE TIME TO FIX AGAIN. THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM, AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THE CAR HAS OTHER ISSUES, BESIDES THE STEERING, THIS ALSO EXPLAINS WHY MOST OF THE CHRYSLERS AT THE YOU PULL IT YARD I WAS AT WHERE HEAVENLY DAMAGED IN THE FRONT, AND HEAD ON. IF YOUR STEERING FAILS, YOU HAVE NO CHOICE HOLD ON, HOPE FOR THE BEST, TILL YOU HIT SOMETHING HEAD ON, OR SOMEONE HITS YOU. I HAVE HAD SOME MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH MY SON, HE BECAME HEAVILY ADDICTED TO HEROIN, IT TOOK ME 2 YEARS TO GET HIM TO GET THE HELP HE NEEDED. HE WENT TO A FAITH BASED REHAB, HE COMPLETED THE PROGRAM AND CAME HOME OCTOBER 2006. HE WORKED ALL YEAR TO SAVE UP FOR A CAR, THIS GAVE HIM A GREAT BOOST, THAT HE ACCOMPLISHED HIS GOAL. I GUESS I AM LUCKY THAT I KNOW A LITTLE ABOUT CARS, AND MY SON IS ABLE TO TALK WITH ME ABOUT HIS ISSUES WITH THE CAR, SO NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT YET. BELIEVE ME IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MY SON, WHILE HE IS DRIVING THIS CAR, AND I FIND OUT IT IS BECAUSE OF THE STEERING PROBLEMS, THAT THE DEALER/MANUFACTURER KNEW ABOUT.. THEY THINK THEY ARE SAVING MONEY, ATTORNEYS ARE MORE EXPENSIVE THEN PARTS. *JB
