2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE Structurebody Problems

THE REAR GLASS WINDOW FALLS OUT OF THE CONVERTIBLE ROOF AND INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THIS IS CHRONIC WITH MOST CROSSFIRE ROADSTERS. EASILY INVESTIGATED AND VERIFIED. IT CAN HAPPEN WHILE MOVING OR STANDING STILL.

THE BACK WINDOW OF THE CROSSFIRE HAS SEPARATED FROM THE TOP. WE SAW THIS WHILE WE WERE WALKING AROUND IT IN GARAGE. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR IN 2008 AND IS KEPT IN A GARAGE. I ONLY HAVE 53000 MILES ON IT. I KNOW THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE WINDOWS FALLING OUT BECAUSE THEY A FIXING THEM IN 2005 MODELS BUT NOT THE 2006 MODELS. IS THERE ANY THING I CAN DO BECAUSE A REPLACEMENT TOP IS VERY EXPENSIVE. WE HAVE HAD THE WINDOW RESEALED TWICE AND IT WILL NOT HOLD.

I OWN A 2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. MY BACK WINDOW IS FALLING OUT AND IT SEEMS THAT CHRYSLER DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE FAULTY ADHESIVE AND FAULTY WORKMANSHIP OF THE CONVERTIBLE TOP. I CANNOT DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE THE GLASS WILL COME OUT AND RESULT IN HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE, PEDESTRIAN OR OTHER OBJECT. THIS PROBLEM HAS LEFT THOUSANDS OF CROSSFIRE OWNERS IN A BAD SITUATION. CHRYSLER DID ISSUE A RECALL ON THE 2005'S UNDER TSB 23-035-11REVA BUT NOT FOR ANY OTHER MODEL YEARS. STATE FARM INSURANCE INFORMED ME THE SAME TOP/MANUFACTURER/ADHESIVE IS USED ON ALL CROSSFIRE MODEL YEARS THEREFORE IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER AN INSURANCE CLAIM. I'VE DRIVEN MY CAR 3 TIMES SINCE NOTICING THE WINDOW AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO GET WORSE; BECOMING MORE AND MORE OF A SAFETY ISSUE. I WANT TO KNOW WHEN CHRYSLER WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF ALL OF...

THE REAR WINDOW OF THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS FALLING OUT. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN OCTOBER 2005, BUT IS CONSIDERED A 2006 MODEL. CHRYSLER TSB 23-035-11 REV A COVERS THE PROBLEM FOR 2005 MODELS. THIS COMMON PROBLEM EFFECTS MORE THAN 2005 VEHICLES. ON 9-11-2015 CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED (CASE # 27856344). THEY DENIED RESPONSIBILITY. CLAIMED (1) TSA ONLY APPLIED TO VEHICLES IN SOUTHERN STATES (I PROVIDED THEM WITH A REPAIR ORDER FROM WESTBURY CHRYSLER IN WESTBURY, NEW YORK THAT APPLIED THE TSB & PROVIDED NO CHARGE REPLACEMENT TOP. NEW YORK IS NOT A SOUTHERN STATE); (2) TSA ONLY APPLIED TO 2005 VEHICLES (I PROVIDED THEM INFORMATION WHERE TSB HAD BEEN APPLIED TO A 2008 VEHICLE). THIS VEHICLE IS GARAGED MOST DAYS AND HAS ONLY 34,590 MILES. THIS SAFETY PROBLEM IS DUE TO A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM THAT MANUFACTURE IS TRYING TO AVOID. VEHICLE...

REAR GLASS WINDOW ADHESIVE FAILED AND WNDOW IS FALLING OUT. GLASS WINDOW ON CONVERTABLE ROOF IS SEPARATING FROM VINAL. THE WINDOW WILL EVENTIALLY FALL OUT COMPLETELY CAUSING UNSAFE CONDITIONS. CALLED CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD NO WARRANTY OR RECALL AND THAT WHOLE CONVERTABLE TOP WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR APPROX $2000. THE CAR IS ALWAYS IN A GARAGE AND HAS VERY FEW MILES. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A POOR DESIGN. WINDOW COULD FALL OUT AND CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE OR ACCIDENT.

IT APPEARS CHRYSLER HAS EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY ON 2005 MODELS FOR THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM. WHAT EVER FIX THEY THINK THEY MADE FOR LATER MODELS DIDN'T WORK. THEY NEED TO COVER THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, THE REAR CONVERTIBLE WINDOW DISLODGED FROM THE CANVAS BY 80%.I SLOWLY DROVE THE VEHICLE TO TWO LOCAL AUTHORIZED CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS FOR INSPECTIONS. BOTH DEALERSHIPS STATED THAT THE 1/2' OF ADHESIVE THAT GLUED THE WINDOW TO THE CANVAS HAD DETERIORATED AND CAUSED THE WINDOW TO COME LOOSE. THE SECOND AUTHORIZED DEALER TOOK PHOTOS AS WELL AS I DID DOCUMENTING THE DAMAGE. THIS CAR IS RATED BY DAIMLER-BENZ OF SPEEDS UP TO 154 MPH. IF THE WINDOW WOULD HAVE COMPLETELY DISLODGED IT WOULD HAVE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED ANYONE TRAVELING BEHIND ME. I WAS APPALLED BY THE CHEAP QUALITY CONSTRUCTION AND WORKMANSHIP OF THE INSTALL OF THIS WINDOW. I HAVE PHOTOS DOCUMENTING THE QUALITY (OR LACK OF) THE DESIGN. I HAVE READ SOME ARTICLES ON THE INTERNET WHERE OWNERS CLAIM THAT THEY (CHRYSLER-DAIMLER-BENZ) HAVE REPLACED ROOFS BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT. I BELIEVE IN THE INTEREST...

I HAVE A 2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE AND THE I NOTICE THE REAR WINDOW STARTED DETACHING FROM THE TOP, CONTACTED DEALER, WITH NO HELP, CONTACTED THE CHRYSLER CORP. NO RESOLUTION, THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT WARRANT , ME GETTING MY BACK WINDOW FIXED , ALTHOUGH THE 2005 HAD A RECALL ON THE REAR WINDOW, I INFORMED THEM THAT THE CAR WAS CREATED IN THAT SAME YEAR BUT SOLD AS A 06, THEY CARED LESS ABOUT MY PROBLEM. THANKS CHRYSLER FOR YOUR GREAT CONCERN, ABOUT YOUR CUSTOMERS NOT! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR WINDSHIELD BECAME DETACHED FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOTH THE DEALER AND A PRIVATE MECHANIC, WHO BOTH STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY THE ADHESIVE USED TO ATTACH THE WINDSHIELD. THE FAILURE WAS REPORTED TO THE MANUFACTURER, WHO REFUSED TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 31,960.

THE REAR WINDOW JUST FELL OUT ON ITS OWN WHILE PARKED. IT CAME FROM FACTORY WITH REAR WINDOW GLUED TO THE CONVERTIBLE TOP AND THE GLUE DID NOT HOLD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT REAR THE WINDOW DETACHED FROM CONVERTIBLE TOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,000. *TR

THE CONVERTIBLE TOP REAR GLASS WINDOW FELL OUT OF THE TOP, I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY CHRYSLER 8 YEAR 80000 MILE WARRANTY BUT THEY HAVE A RECALL FOR THE 2005 CROSSFIRE'S AND ONLY IN CERTAIN STATES. IF THIS WINDOW BLOWS OUT RUNNING 70 MPH DOWN THE FREEWAY SOMEONE COULD BE INJURED OR KILLED. THEY SENT ME TO A REPAIR SHOP TO HAVE IT RE-GLUED AT MY EXPENSE. I CALLED AND TRIED TO GET CHRYSLER TO FIX THIS THE RIGHT WAY BUT WAS REFUSED ANY SATISFACTION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. THE CONTACT SATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS A CONVERTIBLE AND THE GLASS THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THE CONVERTIBLE TOP SEPARATED DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SEAL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DENIED ASSISTANCE WITH THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 49,000.

THE REAR WINDOW IS FALLING OUT OF THE CONVERTIBLE TOP ON MY 2006 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. THE FACTORY AND DEALERSHIP REFUSE TO MAKE I GOOD, SAYING IT IS "NORMAL WEAR" AND THAT THE TOP NEEDS TO BE REPLACED! THE ORIGINAL REAR WINDOW IN MY UNCLE'S 1958 IMPALA IS AS SECURE AS THE DAY IT WAS INSTALLED, SO I REJECT CHRYSLER'S CLAIM OF "NORMAL WEAR"! THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET: WHY DOES THE GOVERNMENT NOT REQUIRE CHRYSLER TO FIX THIS VALID AND PERSISTENT SAFETY ISSUE? *TR
