1999 CHRYSLER CIRRUS Complaints

I JUST FELT THIS PROBLEM NEEDED TO BE REPORTED SINCE IT INVOLVED GAS LEAKAGE. MY VEHICLE STARTED BY LEAKING A SMALL AMOUNT OF GAS AND THEN PROGRESSED TO LARGER VOLUMES. I BELEIVED THIS WAS POSSIBLY A PROBLEM THAT NEEDED TO BE REPORTED SINCE IT COULD INVOLVE INJURIES IF LEFT UNDETECTED AND UNREPAIRED.*AK

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. BRAKES WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN VEHICLE. HAD TO PLACE VEHICLE IN PARK POSITION IN ORDER TO STOP. *AK

UNKNOWN FUMES ARE GETTING INTO THE PASSENGER AREA OF MY 1999 CHRYSLER CIRRUS CAUSING DROWSINESS, AND POOR HEALTH. THE CHRYSLER DEALER CLAIMS THE PROBLEM IS WITH AFTERMARKET UNDERCOATING MATERIAL BEING HEATED BY THE EXHAUST. THE UNDERCOATING DEALER, KASTNER'S RUST SHIELD, 40 CLARK, AURORA, IL 630-897-3609, SAID HE IS UNAWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS WITH FUMES. MY PERSONAL OPINION IS THAT THEY ARE COMBUSTION FUMES. WHATEVER THE ORIGIN, THE FUMES ARE BECOMING UNBEARABLE. THIS VEHICLE SAFETY DEFECT HAS ME NOT ONLY FEELING LIKE SAM SADDRIVER, BUT ALSO LIKE AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. THOMAS ORTEGA. *AK

BOLT ON THE STEERING COLUMN CONNECTED TO THE BASE PERTRUDES. WHEN MAKING A TURN BOLT GRABS THE RUG, CAUSING THE RUG TO JAM BETWEEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE STEERING COLUMN. DEALER HAS INSPECTED VEHICLE.*AK THE CUSTOMER STATES THAT SOMETHING IS MISSING WHEN THE STEERING COLUMN CONNECTS TO STEERING LINKAGE AT THE FLOOR. THE DEALER SYAS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. *YH

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION INTERLOCK SYSTEM: THE DEVICE IS SUPPOSED TO LOCK THE GEAR SHIFT UNTIL THE KEY IS ON. HOWEVER, GEAR SHIFT CAN BE SHIFTED AT ANY TIME. DEALER SAYS IT'S COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. CONSUMER FEELS THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO HER CHILDREN. ALSO, SEAT BELT ON RR SIDE BROKE WHILE TRYING TO FASTEN IT ON. 2 SPRINGS CAME OUT OF THE SHOULDER PART OF THE CLIP. *AK *ML REF IE03013

WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS, ABS LIGHT/ENGINE CHECK LIGHT, AND AIR BAG LIGHT WILL APPEAR ON THE CONSOLE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE UNITS WILL STOP WORKING. ALSO, SPEEDOMETER GOES OUT WHEN THESE LIGHTS ILLUMINATE. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK
