Default Re: Crossfire withdrawl

Sorry for the slow reply guys, but I thought I'd wait until I got home to get an update on my car before I made a post.
After having a really nice week in Vegas with our Daughter and her Boyfriend, We came home only to find out there has been no progress on our Crossfire. They haven't even ordered the new battery that they originally told me I needed 2&1/2 weeks ago, that took 10 days to get.
The Tech. is still stumped, and Chrysler really hasn't given him much useable info to go on. He talked to 2 different Mercedes dealers about the problem, and was told (basically) the Crossfire uses some different parts in their systems so they really couldn't help. I'd love to know exactly what parts in the Crossfire's security system "isn't" Mercedes and what "is" Chrysler.
Kevin (the Tech.) even went above and beyond the call of duty to check out a fellow forum members (Towncrier) car to make some readout comparisons at 11:00 PM one night (they're friends) and discovered that some information Chrysler had supplied him wasn't accurate. So go figure.
This whole thing has really got me bummed out, I've never had a car that had something wrong with it that couldn't be diagnosed.
I bought this car in spite of the fact it was basically a Mercedes, now I'm begining to think I may have broke my cardinal rule, "stay away from exotics".
VQ35DE, You're right, I may just have to fire up the Dodge.
