Default Experienced dealership?

I have 2005 Xfire SRT6 and am looking for a Chrysler dealership in the St Catherine’s/ Niagara area that other owners have been comfortable dealing with.

Dave
The Chrysler dealers disowned the Crossfire many years ago and quit servicing it. Try searching for an independent Mercedes Benz shop in your area, since your SRT6 uses the same/similar parts as a 200-2004 Mercedes Benz SLK32. I'm sure that a few Canadian (Ontario) SRT6 owners will chime in and may provide answers to your inquiry.

Dave, I’m in Grimsby and bought my first Crossfire 14 years ago at Taylor Chrysler in Hamilton. Even then they were clueless about servicing the Crossfire. I have 2 Crossfires that I service myself with the help of this forum, thank goodness. If that is not something you can manage, like Dennis suggested find an independent Mercedes/European car repair shop local to you. Good luck!

They all have experience in taking their customers to the cleaners especially when it comes to service the Crossfire. Any part they install they may obtain from a Mercedes dealership and mark the price up horrendously and will still probably get the problems solution wrong, of course you will pay for the part(s) you did not need. Find a good European car repair shop as previously stated.
Do not buy any parts you install using the Chrysler part number if possible as most parts have a Mercedes’ or the original manufacturers part number on it, use this number as it will be a lot cheaper.
