2008 Chrysler Pt Cruiser

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE, FOLLOWED BY THE ILLUMINATION OF THE EVERY WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, AND THEN THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED AFTER A FEW MOMENTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WOULD OCCUR ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 21,000.

THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS ALL STOPPED WORKING AT AN UNKNOWN TIME THIS YEAR ANOTHER DRIVER TOLD ME THEY WEREN'T WORKING AND THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS A PROBLEM IN THE FUSE BOX OR PART OF IT AND WANTED OVER $800.00 TO FIX IT. MY PT CRUISER IS A 2008 WITH APX 48,000 MILES ON IT. THE A/C SYSTEM ALSO FAILED WHEN SOME SMOKE CAME FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR. NOT SURE IF THERE IS A CONNECTION BUT THE LIGHTS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AND THE TURN SIGNALS COME ON INSIDE BUT NOT OUTSIDE SO I WOULDN'T KNOW UNLESS SOME ONE TOLD ME. I THINK THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS AND THE SERVICE ADVISER AND PARTS DEPARTMENT INDICATED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

A COUPLE MONTHS AGO MY PT STARTED ACTING UP. THE VOLUME ON THE RADIO WILL TURN UP AND DOWN WITHOUT TOUCHING ANYTHING. ALSO THE RADIO WILL CHANGE STATIONS BACK AND FORTH WITHOUT TOUCHING A BUTTON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. THE PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS TO THIS DAY, JUST AT RANDOM TIMES. *TR

FOG LIGHTS TURN ON AN OFF BY THEMSELVES, DOES NOT MATTER WEATHER THE CAR IS TURNED ON OR OFF, OR EVEN IF THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION. CAME OUT OF WORK TO FIND MY BATTERY WAS DEAD BECAUSE THE FOG LIGHTS WERE ON.
