Just got it!
I just picked up a nice, black 2005 Crossfire Coupe on Monday! Wow, what a car! How lucky can a guy get! The next day I couldn't turn the key to unlock the steering wheel. What a bummer. So, I took it to the local Chrysler dealer for repair. Parts are on order, and there it sits.
I Googled the problem, and that's how I found this forum. Looks like you guys have a lot of knowledge on the Crossfire. I'm glad to be here.
