PT Cruiser 2.4L

Dash lights and gauges go crazy then car shuts off. A real danger when you are in traffic. Definitely unacceptable.

I bought this car at 54,000 miles.I have had the entire engine rebuilt at 60,000 miles, coil, wiring, spark plugs, fan to radiator. At 70,000 the front tire bearings replaced. Now the dashboard has all lights flashing and the speedometer and rpm dials stop working while the car engine is driving on the freeway. What next with this car from hell!!! I don't even know what is wrong this time, but work 35 miles from home all freeway driving. This is extremely dangerous. Not to mention the $4,800 + that I have had to pay in repairs so far in last 3 months when the car isn't worth $7,000, but locked into a contract I cant get out of to a used car dealership so Chrysler refuses to be responsible for this. This company needs to be responsible and accountable for this model. They should never have been allowed to sell it to start with.
