1997 CHRYSLER LHS Complaints

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN PARK GEAR WHEN THE VEHICLE MOVED AND CRASHED INTO A HOUSE, THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN PARKED GEAR WHEN COLLISION OCCURRED. *MJS

VEHICLE EXPERIENCING PROBLEM WITH ROLLING WHILE IN PARKED; AND HIT A HOUSE; DEALER NOTIFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS:

AT 38,430 MILES THE ROTORS WERE SO WARPED THAT AT 60 MPH AT HARD BRAKING IF YOU WERE NOT EXPECTING IT AND HOLDING ON TIGHT THE STEERING WHEEL COULD TWIST OUT OF YOUR HANDS. THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED AT MY EXPENSE. NOW AT 49,650 THE PROBLEM IS STARTING AGAIN. THE CAR HAS NOT HAD HARD USE AND WHY SHOULD THE BRAKES ENCOUNTER SUCH A PROBLEM AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE? THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A CHRYSLER DEFECT AND THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRECTION AND REFUNDS TO THE CONSUMER FOR PREVIOUS WORK. IN LOOKING AT THE PAST WEB HISTORY ON THE CAR I FIND OTHER NOTES WHERE PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME LOW MILEAGE PROBLEMS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *AK

TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER, AND THEY PUT IN A CHRYSLER TRANSMISSION. CURRENTLY, AFTER 500 MILES, THERE'S A WINDING NOISE. CONSUMER FEELS THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE VEHICLE MAY LOSE TOTAL POWER ON THE HIGHWAY. *AK
