THE GLASS REAR WINDOW IN MY LOW MILEAGE PAMPERED CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE ROADSTER SIMPLY FELL OUT. THE BONDING ADHESIVE USED TO SEAL THE WINDOW IN PLACE FAILED WITHOUT ADVANCE SYMPTOMS OR WARNING. *TR

WENT OUT TO MY CAR AND FOUND THE REAR WINDOW GLASS HAD FALLEN OUT. BONDING ADHESIVE FAILURE. CHRYSLER HAD AN ILLOGICAL AND ARBITRARY TSB SET UP TO REPLACE THE CONVERTIBLE TOPS WITH REAR WINDOW ADHESIVE FAILURE BUT IT ONLY COVERED 2005 MODEL YEAR ROADSTERS AND A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF CARS THAT WERE ORIGINALLY DELIVERED TO DEALERS IN A NINE SELECTED STATES. THE REALITY IS THAT ALL CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE ROADSTERS FROM 2005 TO 2008 MODEL YEARS WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE THEIR REAR WINDOW GLASS FALL OUT DUE TO THE FAILURE OF THE BONDING ADHESIVE. CHRYSLER'S "BAND AIDE" FIX WAS WOEFULLY INADEQUATE AND INEXPLICABLY LIMITED. *TR

THE REAR WINDOW OF THE CONVERTIBLE, THE ADHESIVE HAS FAILED AND THE BACK WINDOW IS READY TO FALL OUT.THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDOW HAS COMPLETELY COME UNGLUED. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR VERY FAR, I AM AFRAID THE REAR WINDOW IS GOING TO FALL OUT. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE LEARNED THAT CHRYSLER HAS ADMITTED TO THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS A BULLETIN NUMBER{SB-23035-11R} FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE CALLED THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND GOT THE RUN AROUND. I THEN CALLED CHRYSLER COMPLAINT DEPT. AND STILL GOT NO WHERE. THE MORE I RESEARCH THE MORE I FIND OUT. CHRYSLER IS ONLY FIXING A SELECT FEW. UNDER THE EQUAL PROTECTION LAW, CHRYSLER IS NOT ALLOWED TO JUST SELECT A FEW, BUT INSTEAD SHOULD BE FIXING ALL, SINCE THEY HAVE ADMITTED THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BACK WINDOW FALLING OUT AND ADHESIVE NOT HOLDING. *JS

PHONE CALL MADE TO EXTENDED WARRANTY PEOPLE AND CHRYSLER REP. WAS LATER TOLD BY WARRANTY PEOPLE THAT CAR WOULD BE FIXED UNDER "GOOD WILL" PROVISION. HOWEVER, CHRYSLER DECIDED TO REGLUE THE GLASS AND NOT PROPERLY FIX THE PROBLEM BY GIVING A NEW TOP AS THEY INITIALLY RECOMMENDED. ALSO BECAUSE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN PA AND LATER SHIPPED TO FLORIDA AND HAS BEEN THERE SINCE 2006 THE RECALL SUPPOSEDLY DIDN'T APPLY TO US. THE PROPER FIX WAS A NEW TOP. THE FIX WITH THE SO CALLED EXTENDED...
