On 7/30/04 while driving to work my car seemed to begin idling high. While taking off from a stop sign, my whole car jerked and made a loud "clunk" sound. My speedometer quit working, my check engine light came on and my car would not shift out of high. I made it to work and called the closest dealer and was told it was a sensor. Made it to the dealership, to have car checked and was told it was definately the sensor. I was also told that I had the best warranty and would be "no problem". also told them the passenger window in the front only worked occasionally and I had received recalls. Also explained that windshield washer bottle was broken. Ended up paying over $380 to have car repaired and declined fixing the windshield washer bottle because that would cost an additional $200+. I feel this is very dangerous, since speedometer quit working and engine was stuck in high. Dealership acted like no big deal and I am still upset at paying over $380 and having "the best warranty.

I purchased this vehicle in March of 2001. I have had nothing but trouble with it ever since. I have had electrical, air conditioning, and transmission problems which has resulted in approximately $2,600 in repairs in the year that I have owned it. I have contacted the crysler Corp. And they did not help me in anyway. The car orignally had a 36,000 mile 3 year warranty on it. Now the crysler Corp. Offers a 7 year 100,000 mile warranty on all their vehicles. This the first crysler product and the last one I will ever buy. I have previously owned GM products and currently own a 1997 Ford F-150 pickup and I am very satisfied with it. Is there any help you can give me? I have all receipts for all repairs since I have owned the vehicle.

While driving excessive movements occur within steering wheel and column. Also, after vehicle is parked steering wheel does not lock up. Within first 2 months of ownership, engine light illuminated. Every hose and wire under the hood had tape on them, dealer stated that every vehicle came from the manufacturer like that. Consumer questioned why the steering wheel panel would not snap or stay in place, dealer could not answer that question.
