BOUGHT CAR USED IN JULY 2000. TRANSMISSION WENT OUT IN MAY 2001. HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED WITH A REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION FROM THE FACTORY. MECHANIC INFORMED US THE TRANSMISSION WE HAD TO HAVE PUT IT WAS THE THIRD TRANNY THIS CAR HAS HAD. THE SECOND ONE WAS ALSO A REMANUFACTURED TRANNY FROM THE FACTORY. IS NOW JULY 2001 AND TRANNY (3RD ONE) HAS QUIT AND IS IN SHOP. WON'T COME OUT OF SECOND GEAR.*AK

I PURCHASED MY CAR AT CHRYSLER CHASE IN STOCKTON CA. THE FIRST DAY I NOTICED A NOISE COMMING FRON THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN I BRAKED SO I ASKED THE DEALER TO HEAR THE NOISE. THE SALES PERSON DIRECTED ME TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE THEY HEARD THE NOISE AND ASSURED ME THAT IT WAS NORMAL FOR THAT CAR. I KEPT HEARING THE NOISE BUT I BELIEVED IT WAS NORMAL. THE NOISE PRESISTED SO I CONTACTED THE DEALER I TOOK THE CAR BACK IN I WAS TOLD THAT THE STEERING COLUM NEEDED REPLACING BECAUSE THEY HAD A RECALL WELL THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR THE PAST 5 YEARS I HAVE BEEN TAKING IT BACK FOR THE SAME PROBLEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOLD THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR FOR MAJOR REPAIRS ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THEY REPAIR IT BUT WHEN I TAKE IT BACK FOR THE SAME THING IT IS ONLY CONVENIENT FOR THEM TO SAY THAT THEY CAN'T HEAR THE NOISE, AND WHEN THEY HAVE HEARD THE NOISE IT IS NORMAL TO THEM YET I STILL HAVE THE SAME BREAKING AND STEERING PROBLEMS. THE DEALER LET MY WARRANTY RUN OUT BY TELLING ME THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL, AND WHEN MY WARRANTY WAS OVER THEY JUST SAID WELL WE DON'T KNOW IF IS THE SAME THING EVEN THOUGH THEY END UP REPLACING THE SAME THINGS. THE LAST TIME I HAD THE PARTS REPLACED WAS AT ABOUT 89,000 MILES I AGAIN TOLD THE DEALER THAT THE PROBLEM WAS STILL THERE BUT THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL. I HAD MY BRAKES WORKED ON ON FEB, 2001 AT THE DEALER BUT THE BRAKES WERE MAKING ALOT OF NOISE SQUEELING AND A GRINDING NOISE MY WIFE TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THE TOLD HER THAT THE HAD PUT LOCK FAST AND THAT WAS THE REASON THE METAL WAS GRINDING THEY WORKED ON MY BRAKES AGAIN FOR THIS REASON, BUT THE NOISE WAS EVEN LOUDER AND THE GRINDING NOISE GOT WORSE. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO TRY TO GET THEM TO CHECK IT BUT CHAD THE PERSON WHO I SPOKE TO TOLD ME THAT HE ALREADY HAD TOLD MY WIFE THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL BECAUSE THEY WERE USING NEW MATERIALS THAT WERE ALWAYS GOING TO MAKE NOISE, AND THAT THE GRINDING NOISE WAS JUST THE PARTS SETTLING IN.*AK

THE GAS MILEAGE WAS INCONSISTANT DUE TO LOOSE SPARK PLUG WIRES, CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE HAD CONSISTENT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS PRIOR TO THE END OF THE WARRANTY. *YH CONSUMER ALSO HAS HAD THROTTLE BODY CLEANING, INJECTOR CLEANER PERFORMED, CONSUMER STATES AFTER PERFORMING TUNP-UP HE NOTICED A SMALL QUIVER IN THE VEHICLE, CONSUMER STATES THAT GAS MILEAGE WAS INCONSISTENT, CONSUMER STATES THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON, WHICH CAUSED THE RADIO ,WIPERS, AIR CONDITION, POWER LOCKS TO BE INOPERATIVE AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING, CONSUMER ALSO HAD TIMING BELT REPLACED.*JB
