| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On september 16, october, 27, march 6, and april 24, after having parked my car all day in the sun and upon starting for home with the airconditioning on low, my car stalled while i was driving at between 35-40mph. each time it stalled within 5-10 minutes of having been started. each time all the red indicator lights on the dashboard blinked on and off. each time i was able to pull over to the side, put the car in park, and restart the engine to continue home. each time i took it to the dealership. each time the service department kept my vehicle (a 2006 pt cruiser purchased in february or 2006) for between 2-7 days and could not find a problem or replicate the stall. i reported the situation to customer service at chrysler corporation in december and again in april. i have also spoken with the general manager at normandin chrysler. i feel that the vehicle is unsafe, but i have little recourse but to drive it since the service department said that chrysler corporation will do nothing if the problem cannot be replicated or identified. i am a long-time chrysler product customer having bought all of my cars at the same dealership since 1979. |
