TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD WIND NOISE AND THE REAR WINDOW SEPARATED FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP. THE TOP WAS CLOSED AT THE TIME AND THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT DEFECTIVE GLUE USED WAS BY THE MANUFACTURER AND THE CONVERTIBLE TOP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN WAS ISSUED, BUT EXPIRED LAST YEAR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE DID NOT RECEIVE THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.

I CAME OUTSIDE TO FIND THAT THE REAR WINDOW OF THE CONVERTIBLE TOP HAD COME LOOSE AND WAS LAYING ON THE REAR DECK BEING HELD TO THE FABRIC IN 1 SMALL PLACE. THE CAR HAD BEEN PARKED OUTSIDE FOR 1 DAY. LUCKILY IT DIDN'T FALL OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING, POTENTIALLY SHATTERING THE GLASS NEAR MY HEAD. UNTIL THE CAR IS REPAIRED IT IS UNUSABLE IN FOUL WEATHER DUE TO WATER RUNNING IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT.

ON MY WAY TO WORK HAVING JUST PASSED SEVERAL CARS, TRAVELING @70+ MILES/HR. ON THE INTERSTATE, I NOTICED WOBBLING & THE LOSS OF CONTROL & IMMEDIATELY MOVED TO THE RIGHT LANE & STEERED TOWARDS THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY, THANKING GOD FOR NO ACCIDENT. I PUT THE GEAR IN~PARK~TURNED THE IGNITION SWITCH OFF & CHECKED THE EXTERIOR TO NOTICE MY NEWLY PURCHASED REAR PASSENGER TIRE WAS PREMATURELY BLOWN(RECENTLY PURCHASED TIRES). I CALLED A TOW TRUCK(2ND TIME THIS MARCH MONTH BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T CRANK IN MY DRIVEWAY): UPON THEIR INTERSTATE ARRIVAL, I LEARNED THAT THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM/ENGINE HAD SHUTDOWN WITH AN 'INABILITY TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL GEAR OR ANY GEAR IN ORDER FOR THEM TO TOW IT. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THE ENGINE HAS LOCKED LIKE THIS. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 8(EIGHT) MONTHS NOW SINCE MARCH 23, 2015 & THE CHRYSLER MECHANICS ARE IN 'AWE' AS IT SEEMS TO BE IRREPAIRABLE. I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT TRANSPORTATION SINCE MARCH, 2015. CHRYSLER COMPANY, PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM: I & OTHERS COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED ON THE INTERSTATE & I HAVE BEEN TOWED THREE TIMES BECAUSE THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY SHUTDOWN, BUT THIS HAS BEEN THE LONGEST & WORST. IN THE PAST, I HAVE HAD THE HOOD-CEILING, IGNITION SWITCH REPLACED & BEFORE THIS, I WAS ABOUT TO HAVE THE SILVER OUTSIDE WINDOW BORDERS REPLACED. THERE HAS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS ELECTRONIC SYSTEM JUST SHUTTING DOWN WHILE I AM IN THE MIDST OF DRIVING AS THIS BEING THE 3RD TIME SHUTTING DOWN & I DO HAVE A NEW BATTERY, THEREFORE THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. HELP! HELP! HELP! [NOTE: CROSSFIRE IN SHOP 8+ MONTHS/ I AM WITHOUT MY CAR! PLEASE LET ME HEAR FROM YOU CONCERNING THIS SERIOUS & DANGEROUS MATTER! IT IS THE MERCY OF GOD THAT THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT DURING THE RUSH/WORK MORNING TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE, MONDAY, MARCH 23, 2015. HELP! PLEASE!

CALLED CHRYSLER CORPORATION ABOUT REAR WINDOW SEPARATING FROM TOP. THEY SAID IT WOULD BE REPLACED BUT I WOULD HAVE TO GO TO A DEALER FOR PICTURES AND INSPECTION. THEY SUGGESTED MANAHAWKIN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM RT 72 MANAHAWKIN, NJ 08050 609-597-1097. MY CAR WAS INSPECTED AND PICTURES WERE TAKENED BY DEALER ON 8/15/14 AS PER CHRYSLERS REQUEST. INVOICE NUMBER CHCS113759. I HAVE A PAPER FROM DEALER STATING WINDOW IS SEPARATING FROM TOP AND WILL NOTIFY CHRYSLER WITH RESULTS. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM CHRYSLER CORP. STATING MINE IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE IT WAS NOT DELIVERED IN SPECIFIED STATES. I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND THE LOGIC THAT CERTAIN STATES WOULD BE COVERED AND OTHERS NOT WHEN THEY WERE ALL MADE IN THE SAME LOCATIONS. THEY PROBLEM EXIST ON ALL THE CONVERTIBLES. I DO TRAVEL AND IF I WENT BY THEIR CONCEPT TO ONLY COVER STATES THAT HAVE HIGH TEMPERATURES WHAT DO I DO WHEN I TRAVEL TO THOSE STATES WITH THE CAR? I ASK FOR YOUR HELP IN THIS SINCE THIS IS A CAR MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU LIVE THE CAR HAS THE PROBLEM IN ALL STATES. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE.
