2000 CHRYSLER CONCORDE Equipment Problems

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2000 CHRYSLER CONCORDE. THERE IS A SMOKE TINTED PIECE OF PLASTIC BETWEEN THE HOOD AND THE WINDSHIELD THAT IS USED TO COVER THE VENTS ON THE HOOD. YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS PIECE OF PLASTIC FLEW OFF THE CAR, HIT MY WINDSHIELD, WENT OVER THE CAR, AND SMASHED IN THE ROAD IN FRONT OF THE CAR BEHIND. SEVERAL CARS FOLLOWING ME HAD TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THEIR PIECE HAS FAILED. 3 YRS AGO THE SAME THING HAPPENED WHILE I WAS ON A HIGHWAY CAUSING THE CAR BEHIND ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD. ONLY BY LUCK WAS NO ONE WAS INJURED. IF TRAFFIC HAD BEEN HEAVIER THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A TRAGIC SITUATION. I SPOKE WITH A DEALER YESTERDAY AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THIS PART...

2000 CHRYSLER CONCORDE LH; AC EVAPORATOR FAILED AFTER ABOUT 3 YEARS; DEALER CHARGED ME MORE THAN $500 FOR AN ANALYSIS AND RE-CHARGE, WHICH LASTED 2 MONTHS; TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER, WHO THEN TOLD ME IT WAS THE AC EVAPORATOR, AND THAT IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY! TO FIX IT WOULD COST MORE THAN $1,200. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND CHRYSLER ON 7.8.2005 AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THIS IS GROSSLY UNFAIR -- ESPECIALLY WHEN CHRYSLER KNOWS THERE IS A KNOWN DEFECT IN ITS AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS. CHRYSLER SAID THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL ON THIS EQUIPMENT SO THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO.

I HAD BOUGHT A 2000 CHRYSLER CONCORDE IN 2001. THE CAR HAD BEEN ACTING FUNNY. THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON DURING STOPS, THE ENGINE WOULD REV UP WITHOUT MY PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR, THE ENGINE WAS KNOCKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY REGULAR MECHANIC & PAID FOR REPAIRS THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THEN, SOON AFTER I TOOK THE CAR TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP REPAIR SERVICE AND THEY REPLACED THE CAMSENSOR. IT SEEMED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEMS. ABOUT 6 WEEKS LATER ALL OF THE PROBLEMS RETURNED. I IMMEDIATELY STOPPED DRIVING THE VEHICLE EXCEPT WHEN I DROVE IT BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER AT THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT MORNING. THEY REPLACED THE CAMSENSOR AGAIN. THE NEXT DAY, MY ENGINE FROZE AND NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THEREFORE, NIETHER CHRYSLER NOR THE DEALERSHIP WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY LOSS.

SEAT BELTS UNHOOK IN MY 2001 CONCORDE LXI. I WANT THEM RECALLED AND REPLACED THIS IS A SERIOUS SITUATION. ALSO I HAVE THE RUBBER AROUND EACH OF MY DOORS COME LOOSE AND THIS IS ANOTHER ISSUE WITH THE DESIGN OF THE CONCORDE AND CHRYSLER WILL NOT PAY TO REPLACE THEM. THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM. THE WINDOWS WHISTLE BECAUSE THE RUBBER SEAL IS AWAY FROM THE DOOR. I WANT CHRYSLER TO REPLACE THEM. *JB
