Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I am the owner of a 2000 chrysler concorde. there is a smoke tinted piece of plastic between the hood and the windshield that is used to cover the vents on the hood. yesterday i was driving on the highway when this piece of plastic flew off the car, hit my windshield, went over the car, and smashed in the road in front of the car behind. several cars following me had to take evasive action which could have caused an accident. this is the second time their piece has failed. 3 yrs ago the same thing happened while i was on a highway causing the car behind me to run off the road. only by luck was no one was injured. if traffic had been heavier this could have been a tragic situation. i spoke with a dealer yesterday and was told there was no recall on this part however they had replaced a number of lost guards that had been blown off the car in the same method i described. they said they could replace the part again but no modifications had been made to insured the part would stay on the car. *tr
