Default Re: This is for crap for Crossfire owners

This is probably pointless to add any additional information but... The Manassas, VA Chrysler Plymouth dealer told me the same thing...NORMAL. I had to pull off the road 2 times to avoid being hit from behind when I "floored it". I turned at a stoplight from a "slow California roll" both times and the car had absolutely NO pick up at all! If we were timing it we would be talking about 0-60 in about 10-12 seconds (My daughter's 4 cyl Chevy Cavalier could do better).
The tech that test drove my car told me to manually shift the car into 1st gear...that the transmission was probably still in 2nd or 3rd gear and didn't downshift?!?! I did not want to pick up the car...hoping that he might hear something from one of the other dealers that are logging these problems. I am going to pick it up on Friday.
I have to ask though...The SRT-6s have been out for almost 2 years now. Have only a few of us REALLY experienced this problem?

Also, if anyone who stated that had this problem and it was fixed could let me know the dealership that they went to so that the tech could call them I would appreciate it. Also, were any SENSOR lights illuminated for any of you? Mine are not on...no indication of a problem other than almost getting killed!

From a dead stop the car almost always kicks butt 0-60 in about 5 sec.
