| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 pt cruiser with about 30,800 miles on it. this car when stopped in gear and your foot on the break suddenly goes into gear and it takes two feet on the break pad to hold it. this only lasts about 3 seconds and then stops. on 03-28-06 i was dropping off my daughter and as she went to cross in front of this car it jumped into gear and i almost hit my daughter. i took it to the local dealership and told them about this problem. they said they did a road test and drb test and showed no codes. they said wait until it gets more regular and bring it back in. i did email chrysler corp. on this and have not heard back from them yet. i don't feel this car is safe to drive until this get fixed. it seams they could rebuild the transmission instead of waiting for me to run someone over. my 3 year/36,000 will be up sometime this april. i don't feel its fare for me to wait till it gets worse and then dig me $1500.00 to rebuild the transmission especial after it has been brought to chrysler attention during the warranty period. very frustrated right now with all this. *nm |
