Unhappy Re: Let me get something straight...

I don't like my car much now. I leased it because I needed a car and there wasn't a better car for your money and I enjoyed the low payment and the car.

Then the problems began, within the first week of ownership. I could live with that, because the dealership tried to fix them. Now they make up excuses and don't fix anything.

Meanwhile my father brings in his 300C and complains about a few things here and there, like his stereo randomly changing station from time to time. They would tell me they can't duplicate it, therefore there is no problem. For him, he gets a new stereo no questions asked, even though they told him they could not duplicate it.

Luckily I didn't purchase it and hopefully in the next 10 months it won't get any worse, because I know the dealer won't fix it and the last 3 months I am without warranty. After seeing how they catered to my dad's 300, it makes me wonder if Chrysler Corporate is telling the dealers not to go out of their way to service the Crossfire.

I have a transmission that pops out of gear, but not when a tech looks at it.
I have the popping noise that is a recall, that they fixed but didn't and ended up tearing some of the weather stripping around the door frame -- I'd complain but I know they will deny it.
I have a lifter tick that is supposedly a noisy injector that is not warranty replaceable.

I have reasons not to like my car, but it's Chrysler's doing. Sadly, someone will pick this up on the secondary market and be very disappointed with it.
