WHEELS
WAS LOSING MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF AIR FROM LEFT REAR TIRE. TOOK IT TO SEARS, FOR TIRE REPAIR, AND WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRE WAS FINE, BUT THAT THE CHROME PLATED WHEEL WAS SEVERELY CORRODED AT THE BEAD. THEN TOOK CAR TO DEALER, WHERE THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE WHEEL WAS BEYOND REPAIR, AND ORDERED A NEW ONE. REPLACED A WEEK LATER. OK SINCE, HOWEVER I NOW HAVE TWO MORE WHEELS DOING THE SAME THING. WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. I AM AFRAID THAT THE WHEELS MAY FAIL. *JB

WHEELS
DT: THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TIRES WERE LOSING AIR PRESSURE. THE FLUCTUATION IN THE CHANGE OF WEATHER DETERMINED WHICH TIRE WAS AFFECTED. A LOCAL TIRE DEALER SAID THE PROBLEM WAS THE DESIGN OF THE WHEELS. THE WHEELS WERE CHROME OVER ALUMINUM. THE WHEEL BUILD UP WITH CORROSION AND PREVENTED THE SEALING OF THE TIRE. THE SERVICE DEALER HAS NOT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE TO DETERMINE THE EXACT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. *AK

DT: 2002 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE AIR BAG. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE CONSUMER'S WERE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT ON AUGUST 30,2005. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT SHE WAS HIT IN THE FRONT AND RIGHT SIDE OF BUMPER. THE VEHICLE HAD SIDE, FRONT AND SEAT AIR BAGS.

A POLICE REPORT WAS TAKEN WHICH SHOWED THAT ACCIDENT WAS NOT THE CONSUMER'S FAULT. THE CONSUMER WANTED ATTENTION TO GET THIS MATTER RESOLVED. THE CONSUMER DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AS IT WAS. *AK THE CONSUMER STATED THE SEAT BELT DID NOT RESTRAIN HER ENOUGH. THE CONSUMER WAS TOLD THE REASON WHY THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY WAS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS HIT TO THE RIGHT OF THE SENSOR AND NOT IN THE CENTER. *JB *SC

SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM
THE FRONT SUSPENSION BUSHING ON ALL CHRYSLER PT CRUISERS ARE DESIGNED IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THEY CAN DISLODGE FROM THEIR POSITIONS WITHOUT WARNING, CAUSING THE FRONT SUSPENSION TO LOSE IT'S ALIGNMENT. THE BUSHING FAILURE IS COVERED WITH CHRYSLER'S WARRANTY BUT THE EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR ASSOCIATED WITH IT, IS NOT. THE TIRE DAMAGE HAPPENS SO FAST THAT THE TIRES CANNOT BE SALVAGED. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH PT CRUISERS. THE DEALERS REFUSE TO ACCOMMODATE FOR THE TIRE WEAR CAUSED BY THEIR PROBLEM. *NM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:INTERIOR/UNDER DASH
AUGUST 2005 MY SELF AND MY FAMILY WERE TAKING A SHORT TRIP OUT OF TOWN ABOUT 200 MILES. AT THE HALF WAY POINT WE PULLED IN TO A GAS STATION FOR SOME REFRESHMENTS I WAITED IN THE CAR WHEN I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM MY STEERING COLUMN UP THROUGH THE FLASHER BUTTON. WE REALIZED IT WAS THE WIRING FROM MY FOG LAMPS ONLY BECAUSE THAT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT NO LONGER WORK. THE LAMPS WERE NOT IN USE AT THE TIME. NOT REALLY SURE WHY THE WIRING CAUGHT FIRE. *JB

RETURNED CAR FOLLOWING WEEK- ENGINE USED 1/2 QT OIL IN ONE WEEK. COULD SMELL GAS WHILE DRIVING CAR. DEALER SAID NOTHING WRONG. I SPOKE WITH SALES MANAGER AND TRIED TO RETURN CAR. THEY SAID NO, THIS WAS NORMAL. THEY SAID CARS COULD USE OIL IN FIRST MONTH OF USAGE. THEY SAID THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN. I WAS BEING TRANSFERRED TO DALLAS FOLLOWING WEEK, THEY SAID NO PROBLEM, IF ANYTHING WAS WRONG GO TO DEALER IN DALLAS. SEPT- CAR USED 1/2 QT OIL AGAIN, GAS/OIL SMELL GETTING STRONGER WHILE DRIVING- EFFECTING MY ASTHMA. RETURNED CAR TO DEALER FOR SERVICE- SERVICE SAID OIL USAGE NORMAL FOR UP TO ONE YEAR. SERVICE SAID THAT CHRYSLER WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT ISSUE UNTIL CAR WAS USING 1 QT OIL EVERY 500 MILES. SERVICE DID OIL CHANGE. SERVICE STARTED OIL USAGE REPORT ON CAR AND SAID TO BRING CAR IN EVERY 500 MILES FOR CHECK. I DROVE CAR 500 MILES AND CHECKED OIL. SERVICE HAS OVERFILLED OIL LEVEL AND IS 1/4 INCH OVER THE FILL LINE.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
SINCE SEPT. 22, 2005, I HAVE HAD AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH MY 2004 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER. THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES AND AND THE CAR SPUTTERS AND STALLS. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED 3 TIMES AND IT HAS BEEN TO THE CHRYSLER DEALER 3 TIMES AND IS THERE RIGHT NOT SINCE MONDAY OCTOBER 3, 2005. I BOUGHT IT IN FEBRUARY 2004 AND IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THE "CAM SENSOR" HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE, I WAS TOLD IT HAD A SHORT THAT WAS FIXED BUT THE PROBLEM STILL HAPPENED. THIS LAST TIME THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE "CRANKSHAFT" WAS REPLACED AND THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED! IT'S LIKE THEY ARE REBUILDING MY CAR BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I FEEL THIS CAR IS TOO NEW TO BE GOING THROUGH THIS. I HAVE MISSED WORK BECAUSE OF IT. BEEN STRANDED ON THE STREET AND FREEWAY (VERY DANGEROUS). HAVE LOST SLEEP AND AM VERY DEPRESSED AND STRESSED ABOUT IT. I FEEL THIS IS A CASE FOR THE LEMON LAW IF THERE EVER WAS ONE. *NM

TIRES
DT: THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING ON JUNE 8, 2005 WHEN HE HEARD A PING SOUND COME FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. THEN THE DRIVER SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT. THERE WERE NO ACCIDENTS. WHEN HE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE WAS A PUNCTURED MARK ON THE TIRE. THEY SAID IT WAS NOT DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE TIRE. THE TIRE IS A GOODYEAR, SIZE I 205/50R17XL. THE CONTACT DID NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE PUNCTURE MARK DID NOT CAUSE THE TIRE TO GO FLAT. *AK UPDATED 11/16/2005 - THE TIRE WAS A GOODYEAR EAGLE RS-A. ON OCT 7,2005 THE CONSUMER HEARD THE SAME PING NOISE UNDER THE VEHICLE AGAIN. THE CONSUMER PULLED OFF THE ROAD TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE AN FOUND THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT TIRE BLEWOUT. IT WAS THE SAME BRAND AND MODEL TIRE AS THE FIRST FAULTY TIRE WITH THE SAME DOT NUMBER. *NM

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT SEPTEMBER 11TH AT 10:5 0AM. I WAS SITTING ON THE 15 FREEWAY IN SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA WAITING FOR ON-COMING TRAFFIC WHEN I WAS HIT AT ABOUT 60 MILES PER HOUR FROM BEHIND. I WAS PUSHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND MY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. MY CAR WAS TOTALED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. MY SISTER CALLED CHRYSLER SEPTEMBER 15, 2005 AND ASKED WHY MY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. SHE WAS TOLD THEY WOULD HAVE TO INVESTIGATE. CHRYSLER WAS GIVEN ALL THE INFORMATION NEEDED TO START AN INVESTIGATION. I CALLED AGAIN, SEPTEMBER 19, 2005 AT 2:40 PM AND WAS TOLD THAT MY CASE WAS SENT TO ANOTHER DEPARTMENT, BUT COULDN'T TELL ME WHAT DEPARTMENT. THEN WHEN ASKED"HOW CAN YOU TELL ME IT WAS TRANSFERRED TO SOMEONE AND YOU CAN'T GIVE ME A NAME I WAS TOLD THAT'S ALL THEY COULD DO. I CALLED AGAIN SEPTEMBER 20, 2005 AT 8:53 AM AND SPOKE WITH CHRIS WHO TOLD ME THAT THE INVESTIGATION WAS STILL PENDING. I ASKED HIM TO TRANSFER ME TO SOMEONE WHO COULD TELL ME THE STATUS OF THIS INVESTIGATION AND I WAS TRANSFERRED TO LARRY (NO LAST NAME). I WAS TOLD THEY HAD A WEEK TO COMPLETE THE INVESTIGATION AND I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 5,2005. I WOULD LIKE AN INVESTIGATION AS TO WHY CHRYSLER GIVES THEIR CUSTOMERS THE RUN AROUND WHEN SOMETHING THIS SERIOUS HAPPENS. I AM OUT OF WORK UNTIL OCOTBER 31, 2005 (SO FAR). I HIT MY HEAD ON SOMETHING BECAUSE MY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT I HIT MY HEAD ON. OF COURSE AS OF NOW THE BRUISES HAVE HEALED, BUT MY SISTER DID GET PICUTRES OF ME FROM THIS ACCIDENT. IF THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE I CAN DO PLEASE ADVISE ME IN WHICH DIRECTION I CAN TAKE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE SHERRY BOURBON. *JB

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION, STEERING:LINKAGES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE TAKEN MY PT CRUISER INTO DEALER 10-12 TIMES FOR PROBLEMS THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO CORRECT. THERE HAVE BEEN PARTS LOOSE THAT NEEDED TO BE TIGHTENED, SUCH AS BELTS, HOSES, CONNECTIONS AND INTERIOR PARTS THAT HAVE FALLEN OFF THE CAR AND DEALER DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX. I SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT TO MANUFACTURER AND APPLIED FOR LEMON LAW, BUT CHRYSLER REPRESENTATIVE DID NOT LISTEN AND TOOK DEALER SIDE. THEY CLAIM THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE NOISES, BUT I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THE SHOP SUPERVISOR WHO HAS BEEN CHECKING OUT MY CAR FOR THE NOISES HAS A SEVERE HEARING LOSS AND A CLAIM AGAINST INSURANCE COMPANY FOR HEARING PROBLEMS. THERE ARE HIGH PITCH WHINING NOISES, SQUEALS AND LOUD SCREECHING NOISES COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE CAR LOSES POWER AND SEEMS TO HESITATE AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. THERE IS ALSO A NOISE THAT SOUNDS LIKE A TRAIN WHISTLE IN THE DISTANCE. I HAVE HEARD POPPING SOUNDS IN THE FRONT END AND SQUEALING AND SCREECHING SOUNDS FROM THE BRAKES AND UNDER HOOD IS CONSTANT. THERE IS ALSO A NOISE THAT IS HEARD SOMETIMES IN STEERING AND TURNING. THE DEALER TOLD ME THEY WOULD REPLACE THE POWER STEERING UNIT TO SEE IF IT WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEMS AND ORDERED THE PART. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR THE SERVICE, THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE NOISE AGAIN AND DID NOT DO ANYTHING. WHEN I STEP ON THE BRAKES THE NOISE IS SO LOUD IT CAN BE HEARD FOR A LONG DISTANCE. IT SOUNDS LIKE CARS BEING CRUSHED. THE NOISE IS ALSO PRESENT IN TURNING CORNERS AND DRIVING, BUT WORSE IN STEPPING ON BRAKES. THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES A BRAKE PROBLEM BUT SAY THEY DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER PROBLEMS SUCH AS RADIO/CD PLAYER DID NOT WORK WHEN NEW, SENSOR LIGHT REPLACED, RATTLES UNDER DASH, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, ETC, BUT THE NOISES AND IN-ABLILITY TO REPAIR HAVE ME WORRIED ABOUT SERIOUS PROBLEMS. THEY HEAR THE NOISE, BUT THEN TELL ME THE MECHANIC CANNOT DUPLICATE AND DO NOTHING TO REPAIR. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I GOT THE VEHICLE IN 2003. *JB

WHEELS:RIM
I HAVE A 2001 PT CRUISER WITH CHROME RIMS AND LESS THAN 60,000 MILES ON IT. THESE CAME ON THE CAR WHEN I PURCHASED IT. THE RIMS ARE PEELING WHICH IS LEADING TO AIR BEING LOST IN THE TIRES. MY TIRE DEALER TELLS ME THIS IS COMMON WITH THESE RIMS AND MANY CHRYSLER DEALERS ARE REPLACING THE RIMS AT NO COST TO THE CONSUMER. CHRYSLER KNOWS THIS IS HAPPENING AND IT IS A HAZARD. IT IS UNREASONABLE OF CHRYSLER TO EXPECT THE CONSUMER TO HAVE TO REPLACE RIMS ON A CAR THAT WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. *JB

WHEELS:HUB, WHEELS
DT: THE WHEELS ARE CAST ALUMINUM WITH A METAL CHROME PLATE PUT ON IT, ALLOWING AIR LEAKAGE AROUND THE RIMS. THERE WAS CORROSION BETWEEN THE WHEELS AND AXLE. A MECHANIC TOLD THE CONSUMER THAT HE HAD SEEN OTHER SIMILAR VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE WAS A HIGH CHANCE THAT THE WHEEL AND AXLE WILL SEPARATE. THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTED ON DECEMBER OF 2004. THERE HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENTS AS OF YET. *AK UPDATED 12/07/05. *JB

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:FOG LIGHTS:SWITCH
MY FOG LIGHTS WOULD NOT TURN OFF AND COULD TURN ON EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING. MY CAR BATTERY DRAINED A COUPLE OF TIMES, AND I HAD TO OBTAIN A JUMP TO START MY CAR. CALLED CAR DEALER, AND THEY PULLED THE FUSE TO THE FOG LIGHTS AND SAID THERE IS A SHORT IN THE MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. CALLED CHRYSLER, AND I AM OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY WILL OFFER NO ASSISTANCE UNLESS THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. I SEE THERE IS A PRIOR COMPLAINT DATED AUGUST 2, 2005 FOR THE SAME ISSUE ON THREE OTHER PT CRUISERS AND MY CAR DEALER STATES THEY HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE SWITCH ON SEVERAL PT CRUISERS. I HAVE ALSO READ ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ON SOME ONLINE FORUMS. I WILL KEEP MY SERVICE RECORDS IN CASE OF RECALL PER CHRYSLER. *JB
