DT: WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND FIRST STOPPED AT THE RED LIGHT ON THE OUTSIDE LANE THE GREEN LIGHT CAME ON ,AND THE CAR WAS IN FIRST GEAR. WHEN TRYING TO PLACE CAR IN SECOND GEAR CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT AND FELT THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE GEARS. THE CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD TO THE NEAREST TURNOFF LANE. A POLICE OFFICER FOLLOWED CONSUMER AS TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG. HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED TO A DEALER, AND THE DEALER SAID THE CROSSOVER CABLE BROKE. NO EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENED. CONSUMER HAD THIS REPAIRED AND HAD NO PROBLEMS SINCE REPAIR. *AK THE BATTERIES HAVE BEEN REPLACED IN THE CONSUMER'S VEHICLE.

BOUGHT CAR FROM FATHER IN LAW, HE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. HE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT.SOON AFTER I BOUGHT FROM HIM IN 2000(IT WAS STILL NEW!),POWER WINDOWS QUIT WORKING THEN STARTED WORKING AGAIN.CRUISE CONTROL WENT OUT, STILL DONT WORK. FRONT END CRASH 2003 MAY, 4783.45 IN DAMAGE, AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY AT 40MPH !!! I HAD CAR REPAIRED BY NON CHRYSLER GARAGE AS PER ADVICE OF ERIE INSURANCE CO. ERIE WONT COVER BECAUSE THEY SAY ITS CHRYSLER'S PROBLEM, CHRYSLER SAYS ITS MY PROBLEM BECAUSE WORK WAS DONE AT NON DAIMLER CHRYSLER GARAGE AND THEY WERE RUDE AND HUNG UP ON ME! ERIE TOLD ME TO HAVE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK DONE ON IT BECUZ IN AUG 03 THE AIR BAG LITE STARTED TO COME ON AND HORN WONT WORK. I HAD THE CHECK DONE AND THEY SAID CLOCKSPRING NEEDS REPLACED. NOT ERIE OR CHRYSLER WILL FIX.

DEALERSHIPS HAVE TOLD ME REPEATDLY THE PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD WITH MY CAR ARE ALL IN MY HEAD. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED. *AK

I WILL TRY TO ONLY REFER TO THE VISITS MADE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE DIRECTLY RELEVANT TO THIS ISSUE, THOUGH KEEP IN MIND I HAVE BEEN IN SERVICE ON 8 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WITH MY CAR. ON MAY 7, 2001, I GOT IN MY VEHICLE TO GO TO WORK IN THE MORNING, THE CAR WAS DEAD AND WOULD NOT START. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. MY CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE BATTERY HAD A DEAD CELL, AND WAS REPLACED. *AK

THE ORIGINAL BATTERY WAS REPLACED 12,000 MILES AGO AND LESS THAN 3 MONTHS LATER THIS NEW BATTERY DIED. CHRYSLER & DEALER REFUSED TO REPLACE REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT THE BATTERY LASTED LESS THAN 3 MONTHS. THE CAUSE OF THIS SECOND BATTERY FAILURE LIKE THE FIRST WAS DETERMINED TO BE ITS CLOSENESS TO THE ENGINE BLOCK AND ITS INTENSE AOUNT OF HEAT GENERATED DURING NORMAL USE COMBINED WITH THE TROPICAL CLIMATE OF FLORIDA. I BELEIVE THAT CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS BUT WILL NOT OFFER A PROTECTIVE SHIELD TO REDUCE THE EXTREME HEAT THAT THE BATTERY MUST ENDURE. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER TODAY AND THE ASSOCIATE NOT ONLY WAS RUDE BUT LIKE THE DEALER DID NOT OFFER ANY POSSIBLE SOLUTION. THE DEALER CLAIMS THAT ANOTHER REPLACEMENT BATTERY FOR MY AUTOMOBILE WILL COST $110.00 PLUS TAX AND WOULD NOT OFFER ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE. *AK

THE BATTERY DIED CAUSING THE VEHICLE NOT TO START AND THE REMOTE CONTROL DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. NLM

SINCE 1/15/01 THE BATTERY IS DEAD IF THE CAR IS NOT DRIVEN EVERY DAY. IF WE LET THE CAR SIT FOR ONE FULL DAY, THE BATTERY IS DEAD. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE MODULE AND RADIO THINKING THAT IS THE PROBLEM. IT IS BACK IN THE SHOP NOW BECAUSE THE BATTERY WENT DEAD AFTER ONE DAY OF NOT DRIVING THE CAR. THE TECHNICIANS CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM OF WHY THE BATTERY GOES DEAD.*AK

PROBLEM WITH BATTERY NOT HOLDING ITS CHARGE PROPERLY. FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM. *AK

BATTERY FAILED. *SLC
