Consumer Description

I HAVE A 1997 CHRYSLER CONCORD. I HAD A SEVERE CLUNKING NOISE IN FRONT END. AFTER SEVERAL TRIPS TO THE GARAGE AND ALMOST $1000 LATER I HAD REPLACED BOTH INNER TIE ROD ENDS, ALL 4 CRADLE BUSHINGS AS WELL AS BOTH SWAYBARS IN FRONT END. NOT TO MENTION FRONT END ALIGNMENTS AFTER EACH REPAIR. THEN MY LEFT TIE ROD HAD TO BE REPLACED AGAIN WITHIN A BOUT A MONTH. THE PROBLEM WAS EVENTUALLY FIXED AND NOISE STOPPED UNTIL NOW. SIX MONTHS LATER I'M EXPERIENCING THE SAME NOISES AND A LOSE TIE ROD AGAIN. I HAVE SEEN ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT CHRYSLER AND NOTE THAT THEY DON'T INCLUDE THE 1997 MODEL AS HAVING THESE PROBLEMS BUT I DO WITH MY 97 CONCORD. I HAVE 2 CHILDREN THAT RIDE IN MY VEHICLE AND THIS IS REALLY UNSAFE. IF THE TIERODS BREAK OR COME LOSE YOU CAN'T STEER THE CAR. THIS PROBLEM REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY CHRYSLER AND FIXED. *TR
