I am the owner of a 2000 Chrysler Concorde. There is a smoke tinted piece of plastic between the hood and the windshield that is used to cover the vents on the hood. Yesterday I was driving on the highway when this piece of plastic flew off the car, hit my windshield, went over the car, and smashed in the road in front of the car behind. Several cars following me had to take evasive action which could have caused an accident. This is the second time their piece has failed. 3 yrs ago the same thing happened while I was on a highway causing the car behind me to run off the road. Only by luck was no one was injured. If traffic had been heavier this could have been a tragic situation. I spoke with a dealer yesterday and was told there was no recall on this part however they had replaced a number of lost guards that had been blown off the car in the same method I described. They said they could replace the part again but no modifications had been made to insured the part would stay on the car.

We were traveling about 40 mph on the front beach road in panama city, fl, during christmas 06 the plastic piece between the windshield and the hood flew off and hit our windshield very hard and flew over our car. It was dark and we were not sure what hit our windshield until the morning and we saw that long piece was missing from our car. We went and tried to find the piece that flew off on the side of the road, but could not find it. We are not sure how much this piece will cost us, but I feel for it to fly off and hit our windshield was very dangerous and not sure if it hit anyone behind us. I feel after reading this complaint several times on this site that Chrysler needs to research his problem and fix the problem and reimburse us who have lost this piece to their negligence.

I have several rather expensive failing items on my car including recurring issues: Had to replace the R/P steering at 65,000 miles steering rack had excessive play at the 'neutral' or straight position; the molding around all doors has pulled away from the body of the car; rear door locks need to be replaced due to electrical problem; left taillight gasket leaks has ruined interior of the car; plastic trim at the base of my windshield is flapping in the wind; replaced stabilizer bar ends; engine coolant outlet housing was replaced due to a leak from the vent fitting - and to date I have at least 3 more things we have to look at before I can sell this heep.
