| 1999 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH | CHRYSLER SEBRING, DODGE AVENGER, OR MITSUBISHI ECLISPE DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR HANDLES BREAK OFF WHILE TRYING TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE ONCE AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE HAS BROKEN AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER TOLD ME THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER. WHY? BECAUSE THEY BREAK ALL OF THE TIME. I SEE VEHICLES RIDING DOWN THE ROAD WITH NEW HANDLES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CAR. WHAT IF I WERE BEING CHASED AND NEEDED TO GET INTO MY CAR TO STOP SOMEONE FROM ATTACKING ME AND THE HANDLE BROKE OFF IN MY HAND. WHAT IF I WERE THEN RAPED OR WORSE SOMEONE FOUND ME DEAD ALL BECAUSE I COULD NOT GET INTO MY CAR. SOMEONE NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THE DEFECT OF THESE DOOR HANDLES. *NM |
| 2007 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LISTED ABOVE IN 2011 AT CITY AUTO PLAZA WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE SERVED MY PURPOSE AS IT WAS FOR WORK AND NOW SCHOOL ONLY FUEL EFFICIENT. ABOUT 6 OR 7 MONTHS AGO I BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE IT WOULD CRANK BUT NOT START. I WOULD HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND NOT FAULTY CODES WERE DISCOVERED. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT THREE OR FOUR TIMES UNTIL FRUSTRATED I PARKED THE VEHICLE AROUND THE FIRST OF FEBRUARY 2013 AND USED MY OTHER VEHICLE FOR SCHOOL. THE OTHER DAY I DECIDED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE LOOKED AT BY ANOTHER LOCAL DEALERSHIP NEAR MY HOME NOT THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP WERE PURCHASED MY DEALING WITH THE DEALERSHIP FOLKS ARE NOT POSITIVE OR BENEFICIAL TO ME. THE MECHANIC AT BUDDY RAYS AUTO CARE IN CANON CITY CHECKED THE VEHICLE AND TRACED THE PROBLEM TO A CONNECTION WIRING SYSTEM THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THE FUEL PUMP. FROM THEIR EXPLANATION THE VEHICLE WAS IN DANGER OF CATCHING FIRE IF THIS PROBLEM PERSISTED. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN AN ATTEMPT TO REPORT THIS MATTER AND THEY HAVE NOT ASSISTED TELLING ME INSTEAD THAT THE CAR HAD TO BE IN THEIR SHOP. BECAUSE OF THE DANGER POSED BY THIS PROBLEM I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AT A COST OF 765.00 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP, AND WIRING CONNECTORS PLUS LABOR. MY CONCERN FOR THIS CAR HAVING LESS THAN 100,000 MILES IN MY OPINION SHOULD NOT HAVE FACE THIS TYPE OF MALFUNCTION IN THE FUEL AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. *TR |
