I've contacted the regional service rep. He was very hostile and told me that the gouges in the door sill must have been left by a shopping cart.

I've contacted Jim Brown, the owner of the Classic line of dealerships in Northeast Ohio and he told me to contact the Better Business Bureau (in other words: get lost).

That streak of mud across the seat was left on the eighth visit to Classic Chrysler to get the same problems solved.

I appreciate your sincere effort to help solve the problems but I've given Chrysler at least 5 attempts to solve them since I was told not to bring the car back for these problems anymore.

Yes, I'm a mechanical engineer who came up through working as a car and lift truck mechanic and then as a machinist and I could probably fix the door problem IF it was only a door problem.

BUT I suspect that the problem is that the body and frame are separating, the suspension is taking off in a different direction and the only way to cure this car is to take it down to individual components and rebuild it.

At this point I'm stuck with a rattletrap with safety issues which the manufacturer and it's dealers will not fix.
