I took my crossfire to Hayes Chrysler in Gainesville, ga. yesterday for an oil and filter service. They charged me $176.00 for the service. The guy doing the service filled the washer reservoir to the top and all the liquid leaked out. He said the reservoir must be cracked. I asked if he overfilled the reservoir, he said yes. I asked him if he saw the caution sticker not to overfill and he said no. Now the washer will not work. I talked to the service manager and he did nothing!

 

Okay, since you listed it in the cars for sale category, are you selling it?

 

Overfilling it will not ruin the reservoir, it takes 4 litres when the light is on when the light is not on it takes just the amount to take the level to the overflow outlet which cannot be seen without taking off the rear fender liner.
They do tend to crack if it is it can be repaired.

 

I'm sure overfilling it did not crack it - they are made of plastic and they DO fail.

Thread moved to an appropriate forum - i've been doing a LOT of that lately.

 

When I got my car the reservoir was filled with slime, something you get when you just use water in the tank, the slime jammed the float causing the dash light to flicker ON and OFF so I took out the tank and cleaned it out. As noted in the sticky on the reservoir removal it is supported quite poorly and it advised you to add to the support which I did, it still cracked five or so years later, I purchased a new one, but someone said they can be repaired with JB Weld, I know you can weld them with a Poly-Pro welding stick, even with a soldering iron and Poly-Pro plastic with practice.
I thought it easier and safer to get a new one so I tossed the old one.
You cannot fill to the top of the fill tube just to the overflow which is near the top of the tank.

 

WHen Dave responded I realized I forgot to say something:


So, you went to a DEALER and things went wrong - see my sigline.
You have been a member here since 2009, you live a stone's throw from Glovers Garage in Cumming (as well as numerous other small shops) and yet you went to a Dealer (admittedly, a dealer that, ten years ago, was not bad). No sympathy for you!

 

NEVER take your Crossfire to a Chrysler Stealership! They no longer support our Crossfire vehicles and the dealership techs know NOTHING about these cars. Do you even know what brand and viscosity oil they put in your engine and what oil filter they installed? Wait . . . Let me guess!
