33 reportsTHE REAR GLASS WINDOW FELL OUT. IT WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND OUTSIDE IN KANSAS. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE ROOF UP, THE WINDOW WAS DETACHED.
MY REAR WINDOW HAS COME UNGLUED AND IS DANGLING. IT CAME DOWN AS I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 70 MPH ON THE HWAY AND SCARED ME AS IT SUDDENLY CAME DOWN. IT'S A 2005 YEAR BUT HAS ONLY 17K MILES. IT'S GARAGED ALL THE TIME. I AM IN THE ATLANTA, GA AREA. WHAT HAS BEEN OR IS BEING DONE TO GET RECALL ON THESE TOPS?

MY VEHICLE HAS 30,000 MILES, AND IS FROM THE SO CALLED SOUTHERN STATES. LAST YEAR THE BACK WINDOW SEPARATED FROM THE TOP. I CALLED CHRYSLER TO REQUEST A REPAIR AND WAS DENIED.THE CAR HAD FRONT END DAMAGE WHEN WE BOUGHT IT. WE DOCUMENTED ALL PURCHASES AND PHOTOGRAPHED ALL REPAIRS THAT WERE MADE. THE VEHICLE LOOKS NEW. BUT THE WINDOW IS STILL OUT AND I HAVE TOOK THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE 1 TIME THE YEAR. CHRYSLER IS NOT STANDING BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. WE OWN 2 DODGE DEISELS TRUCKS AND WILL NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THAT COMPANY AGAIN.THE WINDOW STARTED DETACHING WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, I SLOWED DOWN AND DROVE HOME, UNTIL WE CAN AFFORD REPAIRS. MAY BE NEVER, NEW TOP $1500. TO $2000. THAT IS A LITTLE PRICEY FOR A 10 YEAR OLD CAR.
THE REAR WINDOW ON THE CONVERTIBLE TOP HAS COME UNGLUED AND IS FALLING OUT, THE DEFROSTER ON THE REAR WINDOW BECAME DISCONNECTED FROM THE WINDOW DUE TO THIS PROBLEM MAKING DEFROSTING OF THE REAR WINDOW IMPOSSIBLE AND HINDERS VISIBILITY. NOTHING UNUSUAL HAS BEEN DONE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS ISSUE OTHER THAN NORMAL USE.
I HAVE A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE THAT THE BACK WINDOW IS FALLING , I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY ARE TELLING US THAT THEY ARE ONLY PAYING FOR ARS IN THE SOUTHERN STATES BUT IT IS HAPPENING IN EVERY STATE .THEY ADDED 10 YEAR 100000 MILES .IF THIS WINDOW FALLS COMPLETELY OUT COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD
I NOTICED MY READ WINDOW ON CONVERTIBLE TOP WAS COMING LOOSE. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLES. IT HAS COME LOOSE ON ONE EDGE (RIGHT SIDE VIEWING FROM BACK OF CAR).
REAR WINDOW FELL OUT. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT DRIVING. IF I HAD BEEN, WINDOW MAY HAVE COME OUT AND HIT A VEHICLE BEHIND ME OR HIT A PEDESTRIAN WHICH PROBABLY WOULD KILL A PERSON ON FOOT. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. MY INSURANCE REFUSE TO REPLACE IT BECAUSE IT IS A "CAR DEFECT". CHRYSLER REFUSING TO REPAIR "JUST CAUSE". THIS CO…

REAR WINDOW FELL OUT. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT DRIVING. IF I HAD BEEN, WINDOW MAY HAVE COME OUT AND HIT A VEHICLE BEHIND ME OR HIT A PEDESTRIAN WHICH PROBABLY WOULD KILL A PERSON ON FOOT. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. MY INSURANCE REFUSE TO REPLACE IT BECAUSE IT IS A "CAR DEFECT". CHRYSLER REFUSING TO REPAIR "JUST CAUSE". THIS COULD BE LIFE-TAKING UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.
THE REAR WINDOW IN THE CONVERTIBLE TOP SIMPLY FELL IN.
