I BOUGHT THIS CAR ON 3/2002. SINCE I BOUGHT IT I HAVE REPLACED THE STARTER THREE TIMES; HAD A FULL FRONT END REPLACEMENT; NEW ENGINE PUT IN; NEW TRANSMISSION; STUDS BROKE FROM THE FRONT TIRE AND WHILE THE TIRE WAS ROLLING DOWN THE ROAD MY CARD WAS SKIDDING DOWN THE ROAD WITH MY 2 MONTH OLD GRANDDAUGHTER IN THE CAR. NOW THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM IS COMPLETELY SCREWED UP AND THE CAR IS NOT EVEN RUNNING. I HAVE ALL MY PAPERWORK WHERE THE REPAIRS WERE DONE. I BELIEVE THAT CHRYSLER NEEDS TO REPLACE THIS VEHICLE "NO QUESTIONS ASKED" BECAUSE WE HAVE SPENT OVER $6,000 FIXING THIS PIECE OF JUNK. *JB
