THE REAR WINDOW STARTED TO FALL OUT OF THE CONVERTIBLE TOP. THIS HAS A KNOW PROBLEM BY CHRYSLER AND THEY HAVE A SERVICE BULLETIN ON (23-035-11) ON CARS SENT TO CERTAIN SOUTHERN STATES BUT MINE WAS FROM VIRGINIA AND THE ARE SAYING IT IS NOT COVERED. THIS APPEARS TO HAPPEN ON ALL CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLES ,THERE IS A GLUE DEFECT ON ALL THESE CROSSFIRES AND THE HEAT FROM THE SOUTHERN STATES EXPEDITES THE DELAMINATION. IT GETS JUST AS HOT IN VIRGINIA. IF A CAR WAS SHIPPED TO NORTH CAROLINA FOR A DAY THEN DRIVEN ELSE WERE IT WOULD BE COVERED, THEY RECALL MAKES KNOW SENSE. THIS IS A KNOW DEFECT BY CHRYSLER ON ALL THE 2005 CONVERTIBLES, THEY WERE ALL MADE IN THE SAME PLACE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION TO EVERYONE AND CHRYSLER NEEDS TO REPLACE ALL THESE TOPS ON THE 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE CONVERTIBLES AND/OR EXTEND THE RECALL/BULLETIN TO ALL THE 2005 CHRYSLER CONVERTIBLES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS UNNECESSARILY KILLED. *TT

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR, FROM A CHRYSLER DEALER. IT CAME WITH A PLASTIC WINDOW, WHICH I FOUND OUT, IS NOT FACTORY/STANDARD. THE DEALER REFUSED TO TAKE CARE OF IT. FOUND OUT ABOUT THE X31 AND SB-23035-11REVA BULLETIN, CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT IT, GOT TURNED DOWN BECAUSE WE ARE THE 4TH OWNERS OF THE CAR, AND IT WAS 3,000 OVER THE 100K MILE LIMIT. I WROTE SERGIO MARCHIONNE, THE CEO OF CHRYSLER, GOT A REVIEW, BUT WAS TURNED DOWN AGAIN. TOLD THAT IT "WOULD NOT MAKE GOOD BUSINESS SENSE" TO FIX MY CAR! WHAT!!? THE PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD, AND SINCE CHRYSLER HAS OWNED UP, THEY SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE A GOOD MANUFACTURER, AND TAKE CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS, ORIGINAL OR NOT. THE CONDITION IS DANGEROUS. *TR

THE REAR WINDOW GLASS ON THE ROADSTER HAS SEPARATED FROM THE ROOF LINING. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IT CAN NOT BE REPAIRED ONLY REPLACED. THIS PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN THE ADHESIVE FAILS COMPLETELY AND THE GLASS FALLS OUT ON A ROADWAY OR TURNS INTO A PROJECTILE INSIDE THE CAR WHILE DRIVING. VERY COSTLY TO THE CONSUMER TO REPAIR SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY:ROOF AND PILLARS, VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR
WHILE PARKED IN OUR GARAGE THE REAR GLASS WINDOW SEPARATED FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP. A PHONE CALL WAS MADE TO NAPLES CHRYSLER AND WAS IMMEDIATELY TOLD THAT A NEW TOP WAS NECESSARY AND TO COME IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. BROUGHT CAR IN FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND AFTER SHOWING THEM OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY PAMPHLET WAS TOLD CONVERTIBLE TOP WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL. PHONE CALL MADE TO EXTENDED WARRANTY PEOPLE AND CHRYSLER REP. WAS LATER TOLD BY WARRANTY PEOPLE THAT CAR WOULD BE FIXED UNDER "GOOD WILL" PROVISION. HOWEVER, CHRYSLER DECIDED TO REGLUE THE GLASS AND NOT PROPERLY FIX THE PROBLEM BY GIVING A NEW TOP AS THEY INITIALLY RECOMMENDED. ALSO BECAUSE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN PA AND LATER SHIPPED TO FLORIDA AND HAS BEEN THERE SINCE 2006 THE RECALL SUPPOSEDLY DIDN'T APPLY TO US. THE PROPER FIX WAS A NEW TOP. THE FIX WITH THE SO CALLED EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS A SHAM. *JS

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
THE ENGINE CUTS OUT WITHOUT ANY PRE-INDICATIONS. AFTERWARD THE STARTER WILL NOT RESPOND ALTHOUGH THE LIGHTS WORK OK. THE TRANSMISSION LOCKS WHEN PUT IN PARK. HOURS LATER THE RESPONSE STAYS THE SAME. THE FIRST TIME IT STARTED WORKING A DAY LATER, THE SECOND TIME IT HASN'T STARTED YET. THE DEALER SEEMS TO HAVE NO IDEA ON WHAT TO DO. IT LEFT ME STRANDED LATE AT NIGHT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A CHRONIC CROSSFIRE PROBLEM. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IGNITION COMPLETELY LOCKED WHEN KEY PUT IN CANNOT TURN AT ALL. DEALER SAID THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO COMPLETELY REPLACE THE IGNITION WITH HOUSING UNIT TOTALING RIGHT AROUND $1500. ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ALARM GOING OFF RANDOMLY AND CANNOT DIAGNOSE THAT UNTIL IGNITION IS FIXED AND CAR CAN BE TURNED ON. VERY EXPENSIVE JUST TO FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. SEEN THIS PROBLEM REPORTED ALL OVER THE PLACE AND SEEMS TO BE INEVITABLE WITH THIS CAR BUT STILL NO RECALL. *TR

THE BACK WINDOW HAS SEPARATED FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP AND HAS FALLEN OUT DUE TO FAULTY GLUE. I HAVE DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH SHOWING THAT HUNDREDS OF OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. CHRYSLER IS UNWILLING TO HELP ANY OF US. THEY NEED TO BE FORCED TO ISSUE A RECALL AND REPAIR THESE PROBLEMS BECAUSE OF THEIR FAULTY MANUFACTURING. *TR

VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE BACK GLASS ADHESIVE ON THE CONVERTIBLE SOFT TOP ON MY 2005 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE ROADSTER IS FAILING ON THE DRIVERS SIDE ALMOST 3 INCHES ACROSS TOP AND BOTTOM, CAUSING THE GLASS TO SEPARATE FROM THE FABRIC TOP. THIS ADHESIVE IS THE ONLY SUPPORT FOR THE WINDOW TO THE FABRIC TOP. THE WINDOW/TOP CONNECTION CURRENTLY DOES NOT PROVIDE A WATERPROOF SEAL AND ALLOWS WATER TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. THIS PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN THE ADHESIVE FAILS COMPLETELY AND THE GLASS FALLS OUT ON A ROADWAY OR TURNS INTO A PROJECTILE INSIDE THE CAR WHILE DRIVING. VERY COSTLY TO THE CONSUMER TO REPAIR SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *KB
