Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Since owning this car i have had nothing but problems from 0 to 36,000 miles most were minor and were taken care of by the dealer (althoughi had to tell them what was wrong - they replaced the wrong parts the first time!). unfortunately, most of the problems occured after 36,000 miles were on the odometer and chrysler has not been too responsive to my requests for assistnace. i have been told by the dealer that my vehicle is out of warranty and that they would be happy to fix it but who wants to pay $75.00 so that a technician can learn to fix my car. in frustration, i have purchased a shop manual and have started to repair these problems myself. my sun roof needs a 10 cent plastic part which chrysler does not stock so in order to get it i need a new $500 sunroof mechanism! now, my transmission will not shift properly (in all gears) and i either need to rebuild the transmission, replace the clutch or the clutch cable. if you would like more informatoin on my saga please feel free to call me.
