“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?”
NHTSA complaint #11253431, filed 2019-09, 104,300 miles“Rear windshield completely separated from top in late (oct)2010. It was replaced and has completely separated again. I am so upset. This is dangerous and costly. I also have issues with car alarm going off while operating vehicle. I have contacted crysler and have not been offered any assistance.”
NHTSA complaint #11084837, filed 2018-04, 70,000 miles“I came outside to find that the rear window of the convertible top had come loose and was laying on the rear deck being held to the fabric in 1 small place. The car had been parked outside for 1 day. Luckily it didn't fall out while I was driving, potentially shattering the glass near my head. Until the car is repaired it is unusable in foul weather due to water running in the passenger compartment.”
NHTSA complaint #10811596, filed 2015-12, 65,577 miles“Came out of a store to find the rear window of my wife's 2005 Crossfire convertible had become unglued along both sides, the bottom & all but the middle edge of the top. We found where Chrysler had a recall on the 2005 roadster (which I am willing to bet uses the same adhesive) but the dealer said it is not covered by the recall. Confirmed this Chrysler customer service.”
NHTSA complaint #10536782, filed 2013-08, 23,800 miles“Car was sitting in the driveway and back glass fell out and broke we had replaced this top once with our money as Chrysler and NHTSA wouldn't do anything about it this car has had recalls on this problem of the glass falling out and the glue failures but it seems only certain cars are repaired this car has been kept in a garage since the new top was installed and we took it out for a few days and the glue let loose what will it take to get Chrysler or NHTSA to fix this”
