| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Purchased 4/02 and by 7/02 with approx. 6,000k experienced hard downshifting when stopping as well as between gears. dealer service "removed burrs from driveshaft". returned for service 8/02 with same problem. again "removed burrs from driveshaft". on 3rd visit in 9/02 i was told they couldn't repair anything and that" the vehicle had a programmable transmission and it's memory was likely responding to a previous similar driving session"...hence the gear slamming! returned 4th time 2 weeks later and this time was told there were no recalls on the complaint and the dealer would file a complaint on my behalf to daimler/chrysler and i'd be contacted when they heard something. i have not heard from anyone even after sending my own complaint letter to d/c in 11/02. have also experienced many incidents of rear tires slipping and fishtailing in various road/weather conditions as well as constant right pull and have to fight steering wheel to drive straight. |
