Example complaints
One per model year, chosen for length and detail. Personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
2006: “Back window fell off the convertible top. I see this is the same issue with 2005 (which was repaired/recall by the mfg). Dealer said it was up to me to repair, had to ship the top to california for a complete new top (~ $3k). I live in florida. Don't understand how a back window falling off a moving car is not a safety issue. Only ~ 22k miles.”
NHTSA complaint #10959573, filed 2017-03, 22,000 miles2004: “I was driving home on the highway from work and my car suddenly shuts down tried to crank it, but nothing happens all the lights and radio comes on, but the engine doesn't start. Hasn't been cranking for over a little over two weeks now. This is very dangerous could have caused a wreck to harm me or other parties. This needs to be looked in further.”
NHTSA complaint #10919742, filed 2016-10, 114,326 miles2005: “All of a sudden my rear window in my Crossfire convertable came out. I cannot put my top down or drive as rain will come in. I was told this has been an issue with car. How do I get it fixed now ? Crystler dearlships say they do not service this model anymore. So what can I do and can you help?”
