2004 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE Structurebody Problems

The thin foil film used on interior of car is flaking on inside of drivers door handle, of which I was unaware. Cut my left ring finger while I was driving at speed on a 2 lane country road. So startled me I went left of center before I could regain control and would have cause a head on crash had someone been coming the other way!!! Very painful deep laceration!

DRAIN PIPES DO NOT DRAIN WATER, CAUSING THE RAIN, CAR WASH, OR ANY EXCESS WATER TO DRAIN INTO THE CAR. ABOUT 2 GALLONS ENDED UP ON THE PASSENGER FLOOR BOARD. VERY COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR STABILIZER BODY MOUNT BRACKET WAS FOUND TO BE 90% SEPARATED FROM THE BODY. THE MOUNT BRACKET HAS 4 WELD POINTS ON THE BODY FRAME. THE WELDS ARE ELECTRICAL WELDS. ONE BREAK WAS ALONG THE WELD AT THE JUNCTION POINT OF THE BRACKET TO THE BODY. THE OTHER 2 SEPARATIONS WERE ALONG THE MIDPOINT OF THE BRACKET SUPPORT LEGS. THE REARWARD SUPPORT LEGS ARE APPROXIMATELY 1 INCH WIDE. BOTH WERE BROKEN. THE FORWARD LEGS ARE APPROXIMATELY 1 HALF INCH WIDE AND ONE WAS BROKEN ON THE OUTBOARD PASSENGER SIDE. THE DRIVER SIDE BRACKET SHOWS NO SIGN OF PROBLEMS. THE THICKNESS OF THE STEEL IN THE BRACKET IS APPROXIMATELY 3/32 INCHES.

THE WRAPPING OF THE INTERIOR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR GRIP APPEARS TO HAVE BEGUN TO SEPARATE ON THE INSIDE AND IS PEALING. A SHARP EDGE OF THE METAL IS BEING EXPOSED AND AS A RESULT, I HAVE CUT MY LEFT HAND FINGERS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN CLOSING THE DOOR. THE PASSENGER SIDE IS ALSO BEGINNING TO EXHIBIT SIMILAR PROBLEMS FOR THE DOOR GRIP. *TR
