CHRYSLER CONCORDE 1994, 3.5L V6. BOUGHT NEW. MAY 1999, FOUND TWO LONG NARROW PIECES OF PLASTIC MATERIAL IN THE FOOTWELL BEHIND THE DRIVER?S SEAT. CHRYSLER SERVICE COULDN'T IDENTIFY. 6 SEPT. 2000, CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP EXECUTED RECALL # 883, REPLACED SLIDES WHICH HAD BROKEN AWAY FROM DRIVER?S SEAT. APRIL 2004, LOST HORIZONTAL MOTION OF DRIVER?S SEAT ADJUSTMENT. FOUND THE SLIDES WERE ASSEMBLED SO TIGHTLY THEY DESTROYED THE SCREW ACTUATORS DUE TO OVERLOAD. INFORMED CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP, THEY SAY THEY DID RETROFIT SO NOW CHRYSLER?S PROBLEM. INFORMED CHRYSLER, THEY SAY TAKE IT TO DEALERSHIP. MAY 2004, MY CAR NOW HAS A DRIVER?S SEAT WITH NO HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENT AVAILABLE. FOUND ANOTHER BROKEN OFF SEAT SLIDE LINER BEHIND PASSENGER?S SEAT. WHAT CAN I DO? *NM

BRACKETS SUPPORTING BACK OF DRIVER'S SEAT HAVE BROKEN IN HALF ALLOWING SEAT BACK TO FAIL TO SUPPORT DRIVER.*AK

I HAVE A 1994 CHRYSLER CONCORDE WHICH HAS AIR-BAG PROBLEM WHICH I WAS TOLD WOULD COST ME $500 TO REPLACE A CLOCK SPRING BY BOB BAKER IN CARLSBAD, CA. I REFUSED STATING THAT DAIMLER CHRYSLER SHOULD TREAT THAT AS A DRIVE TRAIN DEFECT AND REPLACE IT. I ALSO HAD A FAILURE OF THE STEERING AND PAID FOR THAT OUT OF POCKET.*JB

THE TIE-RODS IN MY 1994 CHRYSLER CONCORDE HAVE FAILED REPEATEDLY SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, CAUSING EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS AS WELL AS DEPLETED STEERING ABILITY. ADDITIONALLY MY STEERING WHEEL IS APPROX. 45 DEGREES OFFSET FROM CENTER. MY DEALER REPLACED MY TIE-RODS AT APPROX. 150,000 MILES UNDER WARRANTY PURCHASED WITH MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS AT 173,680 MILES NOW AND THE TIE-RODS ARE ONCE AGAIN IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. I AM CONCERNED THESE PARTS ARE DEFFECTIVE DUE TO EXCESSIVE FORCE PUT ON THEM BECAUSE OF A SEVERE VIBRATION IN THE STEERING COLUMN. IT HAS BEEN LESS THAN SIX MONTHS SINCE THE TIE RODS WERE LAST REPLACED, AND EVEN AFTER THEY WERE REPLACED THE LAST TIME MY DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO RETURN THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE CENTER POSITION FOR FORWARD TRAVEL.

I HAVE HAD MORE PROBLEMS WITH THIS CHRYSLER THAN ANY CAR I HAVE DRIVEN. IT IS NOT YET TEN YEARS OLD, BUT I HAVE HAD BRAKE WORK DONE AT LEAST THREE TIMES TOTALING 1500.00+DOLLARS. MY AIR CONDITIONING FAILS EVERY YEAR. THE BARS ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR HAVE BEGUN TO PEEL AWAY FROM THE MAIN BODY. THREE INSIDE DOOR HANDLES HAVE BROKEN OFF FROM THE INSIDE, AND I DONT EVEN USE MY REAR DOORS. THIS WILL COST ME 150.00 PER DOOR WITHOUT INCLUDING LABOR. MY CAR IS IN THE SHOP NOW BECAUSE THE MECHANIC IS CHECKING IT FOR TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE REAR TRANS. MOUNT AND MOUNT BUSHINGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND NEED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THE ALIGNMENT IS OFF BECAUSE IT NEEDS NEW LOWER CONTROL ARMS NOW. WITHOUT THE TRANSMISSION FAILING THIS IS 900.00 WORTH OF WORK. I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO GET ANYTHING FROM CHRYSLER EXCEPT AN EMAILED, "I'M SORRY...THANK YOU FOR BUYING CHRYSLER" IF I EVER GET THIS CAR OUT OF THE SHOP, I WILL NOT BUY CHRYSLER AGAIN. I HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON VARIOUS REPAIRS ON THIS CAR AND IT IS ONLY 9 YEARS OLD!

RECALL 99V215000; THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED IN THE REAR OF VEHICLE SINCE REPAIRS WERE DONE IN JAN-2002. WHILE DRIVING OWNER HEARD NOISE AND FELT VIBRATION IN REAR DUE TO TIRE LEANING CROOKED. REAR CONTROL HAS FAILED/ BREAKING. PLEASE DESCRIBE DETAILS. *AK

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE HAD PROBLEMS STARTING, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE. ALSO, A RATTLING SOUND EMANATED FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE WHEN THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. AT TIMES THE CRUISE CONTROL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITHOUT BEING ENGAGED.

THE CONSUMER COMPLAINED ABOUT A HEADLAMP PROBLEM. BOTH PLASTIC LENSES BECAME YELLOW. LIGHT PROVISION WAS MINIMUM. THE DRIVER USED THE HIGH BEAMS TO BE ABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT. *AK EVEN WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON THE ACTUAL LIGHT OUTPUT WAS LESS THAN THAT OF THE NORMAL LOW BEAMS. THE CONSUMER WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. *NM

HEADLIGHT LENS COVER THAT BECOMES FOGGED ON THE INSIDE IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. THE REPLACEMENT COST IS $175.00 EACH MAKING VERY EXSPENSIVE TO MANTAIN. THE ORIGINAL SHOULD BE GLASS,THIS WOULD MAKE IT LESS DANGEROUS FOR NIGHT DRIVING. I WENT TO A DEALER ABOUT TRANSMISSION, BUT THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THAT. IMFORMATION I RECEIVED FROM YOU IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE REPAIRED AT NO COST???? HELP !!!*AK

I HAVE A 1994 CHRYSLER CONCORDE THAT I PURCHASED NEW. I HAVE EXPERIENCED MORE PROBLEMS WITH THIS SINGLE VEHICLE THAN 12 OTHER VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED COMBINED. HERE ARE SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT CHRYSLER REFUSED TO FIX WHILE THE CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY: THE GAS CYLINDERS THAT HOLD THE HOOD UP BECAME WEAK AND THE HOOD STRUCK ME ON THE BACK OF MY HEAD WHILE I WAS CHANGING THE OIL. THE TRUNK LID WILL ALSO FALL AND HIT YOU ON THE HEAD. ONE OF THE REAR INSIDE DOOR LATCHES BROKE AND CHRYSLER ALSO REFUSED TO FIX THAT. I DECIDED TO FIX THE DOOR LATCH MYSELF AND THE PARTS NEEDED TO FIX THE DOOR HAD BEEN ON BACK ORDER FOR 6 MONTHS. I HAD TO BUY A COMPLETE DOOR PANEL AT A SALVAGE YARD TO FIX A SIMPLE DOOR LATCH HANDLE. THE MOST RECENT AND SERIOUS SAFETY COMPLAINT THAT I HAVE HAPPENED ON 10-12-03. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND I WAS THE PASSENGER ALONG WITH 2 OTHER PASSENGERS. WHILE APPROACHING A BRIDGE AND ONCOMING TRAFFIC WE HIT A BUMP IN THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR DIED. MY WIFE NEARLY PANICKED AS SHE COULD NOT STEER THE CAR. SHE THEN TURNED THE IGNITION SWITCH BACK ON AND THE CAR RESTARTED. THE IGNITION SWITCH TURNED ITSELF OFF BY SIMPLY HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD, SOMETHING WE ALL DO EVERY TIME WE DRIVE. I CONSIDER THIS LAST INCIDENT TO BE VERY SERIOUS AND FELT LIKE SOMEONE NEEDED TO BE INFORMED. I REALIZE THAT THIS VEHICLE IS 10 YEARS OLD BUT IT HAS LESS THAN 75,000 MILES ON IT. WHILE THIS CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT, THE TRANSMISSION WAS WORKED ON, WINDSHIELD MOTOR WENT OUT, AND THE AIR CONDITIONER QUIT. ALSO A SEAT RAIL BROKE AND CHRYSLER ALSO REFUSED TO FIX THAT. TO SUM THINGS UP, THIS WAS THE FIRST CHRYSLER PRODUCT THAT I HAD EVER PURCHASED AND IT WILL DEFINITELY BE THE LAST. *LA

MY 1994 CHRYSLER CONCORD 3.3 (FLEX FUEL) LITER SHUTS DOWN WHILE IN OPERATION. MY HEATER ONLY BLOWS HOT AIR, FUEL CAN BE SMELLED WHILE VECHILE IS RUNNING, MIL CODE 12,11,41 HAVE BEEN DISPLAYED,FOG OR MIST COATS THE INSIDE WINDOWS EVERYDAY,THE FRONT END OF MY CAR FEEL LIKE IT'S GOING TO RIP LOOSE. I'VE INSTALLED A NEW FUEL FILTER, FUEL PUMP, HAD MY AIR CONDITIONER RECHARGED, NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER INSTALLED,NEW O2 SENSERS,FUEL INJECTION CLEANING SERVICE PERFORMED,TRANSMISSION REPLACED,DIFFERENTIAL REPLACED, OUTER TIE RODS REPLACED AND HAVE KEPT UP ON REGULARLY SCHEDULED OIL AND FLUID CHANGES.MY VECHILE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE,ME AND MY FAMILY ARE IN HARMS WAY FROM THE TIME WE GET IN THE CAR UNTIL WE ALL EXIT THE VECHILE. I INSPECTED UNDER THE HOOD OF MY CAR AND FOUND A LARGE PUDDLE OF GASOLINE GATHERED ON TOP OF MY FRONT DIFFERENTAIL HOUSING.I CALLED DWAYNE LANES DODGE OF EVERETT AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANY RECALLS FOR MY CAR. MY CAR STILL OVER HEATS,STALLS,SHUTSDOWN WHILE IN MOTION,SMELLS OF GASOLINE,SURGES,AND THE RACK AND PINNION SLIDE OUT OF THE LAME RUBBER GASKETS THAT MOUNT THEM TO THE FRAME OF MY CAR WHENEVER I TURN A CORNER. *LA

THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. *JB STRAIGHT ON FRONT REAR COLLISION. THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE COLLAPSED INTO THE FRAME. THE VEHICLE WAS UNREPAIRABLE. *SCC

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE HAD PROBLEMS STARTING, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE. ALSO, A RATTLING SOUND EMANATED FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE WHEN THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. AT TIMES THE CRUISE CONTROL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITHOUT BEING ENGAGED.

OUR VEHICLE HAS STALLED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHILE IN MOTION. THIS IS UNSAFE, AND COULD POSSIBLY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT, SINCE WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLS THERE IS NO POWER STEERING AFTER THE VEHICLE STALLS. SOMETIMES THE RPMS DROP DOWN TO NEAR ZERO AND THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON BEFORE IT STALLS. OCCASIONALLY THE VEHICLE DOES NOT COMPLETELY STALL, AND THE ENGINE RECOVERS, RESULTING IN A STRONG JERK. ALSO OCCASIONALLY THE CAR JUST JERKS NOTICEABLY TO STRONGLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON NOTICEABLY FOR A FEW MONTHS, AND WE HAVE HAD NUMEROUS REPAIRS TO OUR VEHICLE THAT HAVE (POTENTIALLY FALSELY) BEEN DIAGNOSED. NONE OF THESE REPAIRS HAVE SEEMED TO AFFECT THE STALLING AND JERKING PROBLEMS. THE DATE GIVEN IS THE DATE OF OUR MOST SERIOUS STALLING EVENTS. IT STALLED SEVERAL TIMES THAT DAY WHILE I WAS DRIVING. *NM

THIS 1994 CHRYSLER HAS HAD CONSTANT PROBLEMS, MOST RECENT BEING THE WINDHSIELD WIPERS FLEW UP AND STUCK WHILE ON THE FREEWAY IN THE RAIN GOING 55MPH. EXHAUST SMELLS BAD, STARTER IS BAD, AIR CONDITIONER TICKS WHEN TURNED OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS. AS A NEWLY SINGLE MOTHER OF 4 BOYS LOOKING FOR EMPLOYMENT THAT I CAN GET TO AND FROM RELIABLY, SO I CAN TAKE CARE OF MY FAMILY MYSELF EVENTUALLY, THE LAST THING I EVER SHOULD HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IS A CAR THAT IS ONLY 10 YEARS OLD. ESPECIALLY SINCE CHRYSLER IS SHOWING ALL THE BEATIFUL NEW CHRYSLER PRODUCTS I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO HAVE. I LOVE MY CAR, BUT I AM MORE THAN DISAPPOINTED IN WHAT I STILL HAVE $3,000 LEFT TO PAY ON A USED CAR.
