This rust issue bothers me.
If most of the Crossfire owners are fixing the issue themselves, Chrysler will not have a record of the issue.
I'm wondering if those affected shouldn't draft a petition of some sort to Chrysler demanding a fix or compensation for it being fixed. Anyone who has or had the issue would sign it.
I just think it is utterly ridiculous that these cars are having this issue. Many of them are very low mileage and have not been driven in the winters (i.e. salt, etc.) and so on.

My '97 Prelude was 9 years old and had 130,000+ miles on it when I got rid of it. It had been driven in many different states and every winter. It had no issues such as this.
My '01 Accord has 90,000 miles on it with the same driving habits as above, and there are no such issues with it either.

My neighbor has an '04 or '05 Limited Coupe (not on the forum) that they drive in almost all weather. I am going to go over there this week and inform them of the issue and check it out for them (if they would like). I would wager that there is some serious rust going on and they have no idea.

Crossfire owners should not be punished for this obvious design flaw.

Thoughts?
