| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 1. no gradual signs. one day, front end very unstable, shaking and wobbling - as if front end not aligned or bad tires / inflation. steering the vehicle was a challenge & felt very unsafe. same day, i took vehicle to tire store to have looked at, tires checked / rotated if needed. replaced one rear tire that was soon to be needed and checked inflation on others, etc. 5:30pm, i was sent on my way. car drove better it seemed - for approx. 4 miles. 2. 5:45pm - at red stop light, while waiting for light to change everything seemed fine with vehicle. once light turned green, i was 2nd car in line to proceed... when i tried to accelerate forward, vehicle would not go. i thought may have stalled - no. it would just not go. i got out of vehicle while trying to direct traffic around me... looked at front of car, nothing. bent down to look at tires & both front tires were facing (turned) inward - towards one another. i have never seen a vehicle do this !!! thank god i was stopped at a stop light when this happened. had vehicle towed to mechanic and was told bolt connecting upper tie rod to rack is broken off in rack !!! 3. estimate was given - however, i have a problem with bolts breaking on any equipment. vehicle is unsafe and sitting in driveway. i think chrysler should have it repaired. vehicle has 80,000 miles and is a 1993 concorde. *la |
