MY REAR WINDOW IS SEPARATING FROM THE CONVERTIBLE CANVAS TOP. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AS THERE IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY OF 10 YEARS OR 100,000 MILES: NHTSA SB 23035-11 REV A. I WAS TOLD THE NHTSA WAS FOR VEHICLES DELIVERED ONLY IN CERTAIN STATES. WHAT DOES THE STATE HAVE TO DO WITH A FAULTY ADHESION PROBLEM? AFTER A NUMBER OF EMAILS AND PHONE CALLS CHRYSLER HAS TURNED DOWN THE REQUEST. CONCERNED THERE IS A DANGER IF THE WINDOW COMES OUT ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH AND THE REAR CONVERTIBLE WINDOW DETACHED FROM THE TOP. IT APPEARS THAT THE ADHESIVE NO LONGER HOLDS THE WINDOW TO THE CONVERTIBLE TOP. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT SHOULD BE FIXED BY CHRYSLER BUT IT IS NOT COVERED. *TR

MY CANVAS TOP HAS SEPARATED FROM THE GLASS WINDOW DUE TO DEFECTIVE GLUE PROCESS. NOT SAFE AT ALL. IT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY DOING 55MPH. WINDOW STARTED TO SEPARATE FROM CANVAS TOP. IT I DIDN'T HEAR ALL THE AIR COMING IN AND SEE IT IN MY MIRROR IT COULD FLOWN OUT OF THE CAR INTO ANOTHER CAR IF I DIDN'T QUICKLY SLOW DOWN AND PULL OVER. VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW I HAVE A MAHER BILL TO HAVE IT FIXED. FROM DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT ALL 2005 CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLE OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME THING AN MORE OF THEM EVERYDAY. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE BEFORE IT KILLS SOMEONE IF IT HASN'T ALREADY. THANKS FOR LISTENING AND HOPEFULLY YOUR HELP WITH THIS MATTER. *TR

I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR. THE CUP HOLDER IS STUCK IN THE VERTICAL POSITION RIGHT WHERE MY ELBOW GOES WHEN CONTROLLING THE SHIFTER THUS MAKING IT DIFFICULT AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS TO DO SO. I WENT ON THE INTERNET TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS FROM CROSSFIRE OWNERS OF ALL YEARS ABOUT THIS VERY THING. CHRYSLER WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT IT INCLUDING JUST DISCONNECTING THE SPRING ON THE CUP HOLDER SO THAT IT WILL STAY DOWN. THE FIX IS OVER $300 IF YOU GET CHRYSLER TO DO IT, AND THEY INSTALL THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART AGAIN. NOT A GOOD FIX. I THINK IT IS DANGEROUS, VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. *TR
