Description of the problem | Purchased crossfire in california in december of 2012 with 45000 miles on it. Commencing january 2013, rear glass commenced coming detached from canvas convertible top. Condition continues and is a dangerous situation for both passengers and drivers behind car. If glass breaks loose it could cause serious bodily harm. Chrysler is very well aware of the situation and has paid to repair the vehicles on a sporadic basis. Their last comments to me was due to my vehicle being first delivered in california, it was exempt from the recall for eight southern states. This is quite perplexing as the vehicles are identical, with the same problems. Only in different states. I have just learned that they replaced the top on a vehicle in chicago. Clearly not one of the states named in the south. I would like them to honor what they are doing all over the country. Perhaps it is because they probably sold the most of these vehicles here in california. They are also excusing themselves from doing repairs because the cars were never climate tested in california. If not, they are relying on testing done on the mb slk. An identical vehicle. Please help me get my vehicle repaired under the warranty extended to so many others. |
