Cool Re: Interior lights not functioning

OK - I am naming the car Christine at this point. 2005 Limited Coupe, 6 speed - in to dealer the second week in a row, third replacement module that controls interior electronics.

First the interior lights were not functioning automatically when hitting the remote or opening the doors. Then the defroster would cause the radio to go all static. Was told by the dealer they knew which module it was. They are on the 3rd module, and Chrysler Corporate tells me they don't know when they will have the part available and I need to pick up my car, return the rental car and talk to the dealer. The new modules will have everything working but then the spoiler wont work and keeps beeping. I was told by the dealership the 2005 upgrade in 2006 won't work in my 2005 and that is why they are getting the spoiler issue now.

First, the car is STILL under warranty, second, I am not driving the car when intermittent electronics are failing. After me politely pitching a fit to Corporate, Chrysler has agreed to continue the rental car for only 5 more days and can not tell me when a new part that will be covered by warranty will be available. They will not send a remanufactured part or authorize a used part because they won't honor my original warranty at that point.

MO lemon law is 4 times to the dealer and 30 business days out of service. Any suggestions besides me telling Corporate that they will continue to give me a rental car and honor their warranty?

Suggestions? I love the car - just not the problems I have had. I am a girl and rarely "get on it" with the car - it's garage kept, not out in the rain, only has 24k now. I was told by two dealerships that this just doesn't happen with the Crossfire - anyone?

Never heard of this happening, my 2005 Roadster Limited purchased in 2004 has had no electrical problems. Alot of these cars depending on when you purchased it have been sitting on the docks or dealer lots for a long time. make sure that the tech is a "certified" XFire tech, and not just a regular DChrysler tech trying to fix your car.
