TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE IGNITION CONTROL MODULE, THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR, AND CRANK SHAFT WIRING HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

THE SKREEM (SENTRY KEY REMOTE ENTRY MODULE?) FAILED WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS PUMPING GAS. EVIDENTLY, THE CAR CANNOT BE STARTED IF THIS MODULE IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, THUS LEAVING MY 17 YEAR OLD STRANDED. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH, MOSTLY VIA CROSSFIREFORUM.ORG, IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THIS PART HAS AN EXTREMELY HIGH FAILURE RATE. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE ENGINE AND COMPONENTS ARE ESSENTIALLY THE SAME AS THE MERCEDES SLK AND THAT MERCEDES RECALLED THE COMPATIBLE MODULE, BUT CHRYSLER DIDN'T. MOREOVER, THIS PARTICULAR PART CAN ONLY BE ORDERED AND PROGRAMMED BY A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP, WHICH MEANS NO OPTIONS AND BIG BUCKS! PLEASE LOOK INTO AND MONITOR PAST AND FUTURE COMPLAINTS CONCERNING THIS POORLY DESIGNED/MANUFACTURED ESSENTIAL COMPONENT IN THE CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT ON OUR BEHALF. *TR

WHILE DRIVING CAR AT 30 MPH JUST DIED STEERING LOCKED UP AND NO RESPONSE. AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND RESTARTED. HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT 2 DAYS LATER. HOOKED UP TO DIAGNOSIS MACHINE AND IT SAID IT WAS THE CAM SHAFT POSSESSION SENSOR THAT WAS REPLACED. CAR RAN FINE FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND THE ISSUE BEGAN AGAIN. HOOKED IT UP AND IT SAID IT WAS SAME PART. TOOK PART BACK GOT NEW ONE NO RESPONSE. TOOK CAR TO DEALER BUT MACHINE READ NO PROBLEM. CHANGED CRANK SHAFT SENSOR AFTER GOOGLING SIMILAR ISSUES BUT ISSUE STILL EXISTS. WE HAVE SPENT SEVERAL DOLLARS ON PARTS THAT DO NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I AM JUST THANKFUL FOR THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED TO HAVE NOT BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND JUST ON A SIDE STREET CLOSE TO HOME. WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE U NEVER KNOW WHEN IT MAY STALL OUT AND IF OR WHEN IT WILL RESTART. AFTER GOGGLING MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING SAME ISSUE AND I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS COULD POSSIBLY BE SAFE MORE HOW NO ONE CAN RESOLVE OR FIX THE ISSUE. SO BASICALLY PAID $10,000 FOR A NICE YARD ORNAMNET AT THIS TIME. VERY FRUSTRATED AND WISHING CHRYSLER WOULD STEP UP. OWNING 3 DODGE/CHRYSLER VEHICLES AT THIS TIME IS TO THE POINT WHERE I WOULD NEVER OWN ANOTHER IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED SOON! *TR

IT BEGIN NOT STARTING,SO I HAVE HAD FUEL PUMP REPLACED,OIL CHANGES,BATTERY CHECK,FUEL FILTER CHANGE,CRANK SENSOR REPLACED, TO FIND OUT WHEN THE SENSOR WAS REPLACED,I HAVE A WIRE HARNESS DEFECT,I HAVE CALLED ALL OVER TRYING TO GET THIS PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF,BUT TO NO AVAIL. THIS CAR,2004 CROSSFIRE HAS ALL MERCEDES BENZ PARTS AND I REALLY BELIEVE THIS IS VERY HAZARDOUS CONDITION. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING AND THE CAR JUST CUT OFF IN THE MIST OF THE DRIVE,ITS VERY DANGEROUS, NOT ONLY TO ME DRIVING,BUT TO PEOPLE ON THE HIGHWAY AS WELL. I WISH THE CHYRSLER OR MERCEDES DEALERS WOULD COME TO AN AGREEMENT TO RECALL AND FIX THE PROBLEMS OF THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS NOT GOOD BUSINESS AT ALL. *TR
