1995 Chrysler Cirrus Heating & air conditioning Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the heating or air-conditioning system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Heating & air conditioning reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I HAVE HAD 2 FAILUERS OF THE AC COMPRESSOR ON THIS VEHICLE. BOTH TIMES THE COMPRESSOR OVERHEATED DURING NORMAL OPERATION OF THE AIR CONDITIONER ON THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME IT FAILED THE COMPRESSOR LOCKED UP, CAUSING THE SERPENTINE BELT TO JAM, CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND OPERATION OF THE ALTERNATOR. THE SECOND COMPRESSOR FAILED AFTER ONLY 7,000 MILES OF OPERATION AND HS YET TO BE REPAIRED.

THIS FORM IS NOT USER FRIENDLY. YOU ARE PRECLUDED FROM GOING BACK TO PREVIOUS SCREENS WITHOUT LOSING INFORMATION. I JUST FILLED OUT A FORM COMPLETELY, AND WAS CUT OFF BEFORE I COULD ADD COMMENTS! PLEASE CROSS REFERENCE MY INFORMATION. MY ADDITONAL COMMENT IS THAT GIVEN THAT MY CAR IS LESS THAN 4 YEARS OLD, I FEEL THAT I HAVE HAD MAJOR REPAIR ITEMS, SUCH AS A/C COMPRESSOR/ BRAKE ROTORS/TIE RODS). IF A CAR IS MADE TO LAST, THESE PROBLEMS SHOULD NOT ARISE. THE DEALERSHIPS VIEW IS THAT A 4 YEAR CAR WITH 27,000 MILES IS WORN OUT AND THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS. MY OTHER CAR IS A SATURN AND AFTER 6 YEARS I HAVE HAD ZERO REPAIRS ASIDE FROM NORMAL MAINTENANCE. CHRYSLER MAKES BAD PRODUCTS, AND DOESN'T STAND BEHIND THEIR CARS. PLEASE BE ON ALERT THAT THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY PROBLEMS ARISING WITH CIRRUS MODELS. I HAVE DEALT WITH TAMIAMI CHRYSLER IN MIAMI 305 266-5500 WHO ARE INCOMPETENT, LIARS AND CROOKS. COME DOWN HARD ON CHRYSLER. *AK
