CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER IS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSIS THE PROBLEM, ALSO THE LEFT OUTER CV BOOT WAS REPLACED, THE TRUNK WOULD NOT OPEN, AND TIRES WERE REPLACED (GOODYEAR TIRES P205/55R16).*SLC

FRONT END VIBRATION 8AM ON 1/23/02. TIRES WERE CHECKED BY ME AND APPEARED TO BE OK. 4:30PM ON 1/23 SEVERE VIBRATION ON WAY HOME. INSPECTION BY ME AT GAS STATION REVEALED LOW TIRE PRESSURE RF. ALL OTHER TIRES APPEARED TO BE OK. SERVICE IMMEDIATELY SCHEDULED FOR 1/24/02. DEALER ADVISED ME THAT BOTH LF & RF TIRES HAD TREAD SEPARATION AND REAR TIRES WERE OK. BOTH LF & RF TIRES WERE REPLACED PER DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT. *AK (TIRESIZE: P225/55R17)

VERY POOR PERFORMANCE AND GAS MILEAGE HAS BEEN OBSERVED WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR. MOPAR OWN WEBSITE FOR PTCRUISER HAS PARTS FOR AIR CLEANER AND EXHAUST SYSTEM TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BUT AT THE OWNERS EXPENSE. WWW.PT-TUNING.COM HAS A WEBSITE WITH OWNERS INFORMATION ABOUT AIR CLEANERS AND EXHAUST SYSTEMS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I BELEIVE THE AVERAGE GAS MILEAGE OF A LIGHT TRUCK IS 20.7MPG AND THIS CAR GETS NOWHERE NEAR THAT. I THINK FOR THAT REASON THE AIR CLEANER AND EXHAUST SYSTEM SHOULD BE REPLACED AS A RECALL ITEM TO PROVIDE THE OWNERS WITH AN ENJOYABLE CAR INSTEAD OF THE LEMON IT HAS TURNED OUT TO BE. *AK (DOT NUMBER: MKT2 BMDR TIRESIZE: 205/55R16)
