“The rear window separated from the convertible top while I had the car parked outdoors. I found the car with the rear window area open and the glass lying on the interior of the backlight area. The glass remained connected to the top by about 1/3 of the original glue. The remainder had come apart from the glue leaving the glass mostly detached.”
NHTSA complaint #10733108, filed 2015-07, 87,500 miles“The back glass of my 2005 Chrysler crossfire has become loose from the top. It happened when I was driving down the road as I heard it bump against the car body. I know Chrysler extended the warranty on this issue, but I feel this is a safety issue first and the company should do a recall to make this right.”
NHTSA complaint #10846307, filed 2016-03, 110,000 miles“I was driving my 2005 Chrysler Crossfire Convertible with the top up on a highway at 65 miles per hour when the rear window fell into the car, which caused me to swerve due to the loud noise and commotion nearly causing an accident. Luckily, I realized there was no immediate danger and was able to maintain control of the car. This car is garaged and driven fewer than 6,000 miles per year! (mostly with the top down!)”
