Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driving down the interstate at 70 MPH the rear window detached from the convertible top and crashed into the interior of the vehicle. The dealer claims that the sealant/adhesive failed and the rear window but it could not be re-attached. The Chrysler dealer ordered a new top with window. The dealer stated that there were no recalls or warranties for this repair. The dealer charged $2,605.00 to replace the convertible top. This is a very dangerous safety issue as the rear window could have injured the occupants.”
NHTSA complaint #10664135, filed 2014-12, 9,876 miles“The owner of the vehicle was driving at a rate of speed of approximately 40 MPH and detected an unusually loud rattling noise from behind. After approaching and stopping at a traffic light, the owner/driver turned and looked to discover that approximately 1/4th of the entire rear window assembly had detached from the convertible top. The adhesive that attaches the soft-top canvas material to the rear window has failed. The owner is concerned that the remaining adhesive will also fail resulting in the entire window falling out and potentially causing an accident. …”
NHTSA complaint #10532177, filed 2013-07, 80,275 miles“Adhesive on rear window assembly in the convertible top failed causing window assembly to fall out. Incident occurred after parking vehicle in garage - owner watched window assembly fall away as he went to close the garage door...vehicle is low miles, always garaged or covered, always handwashed - not powerwashed. This appears to be same problem Chrysler has had with this vehicle since the 2005 model year when large numbers of these failures were reported. Much fewer are reported for 2006, 2007 or 2008 as many fewer were built and even fewer of those were imported to the us. …”
NHTSA complaint #10512807, filed 2013-05, 19,775 miles“We own an 2008 Chrysler crossfire convertible with 8500 miles. The rear window came completely loose. I have talked to Chrysler customer service and they have refused to do anything about this top. The crossfire has always been garaged. It does not stay outside. Hays Chrysler will not help either. I spoke to a local convertible shop and was told the window could not be repaired. I own an 05 crossfire that had the same problem and Chrysler replaced the top. It makes no sense one would be repaired and the other rejected. This is an ongoing problem with many others. …”
