Consumer Description

WENT IN FOR ANNUAL INSPECTION ON 2005 PACIFICA. MECHANIC REPORTED RUSTED SUB FRAME; EVERYTHING ELSE IS FINE; MILEAGE IS ABOUT 130000. SERVICE CENTER INFORMED ME THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY CHRYSLER. EXCELLENT ARTICLE ON IT TOO: HTTP://WWW.NBCCHICAGO.COM/INVESTIGATIONS/MINIVAN-OWNERS-WANT-CHRYSLER-TO-CONCEDE-RUST-PROBLEMS-241535881.HTML. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID MY VEHICLE FALLS OUTSIDE THE NARROW WINDOW THEY RECALLED SO I AM NOT ELIGIBLE FOR ANY WARRANTY. THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME ANY REASON WHY THE RECALL WINDOW WAS LIMITED TO A 6 WEEK PERIOD. I HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE AND OTHERS. UNBELIEVABLE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT BEING ADDRESSED BY CHRYSLER. I WILL HAVE TO BUY A NEW CAR AND SURELY WON'T BE BUYING A CHRYSLER GIVEN MY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR
