Crossfire's with no or little problems
Crossfire's with no or little problems
as oledoc2u said" we as forum members are ALWAYS talking about what is broken or having problems with. WE never talk about those who have had ZERO issues or just a few smalls issues."
so thanks doc for the suggestion and i'll do the thd. for u
it seems that there are lots of thds with something going wrong,, if a newbe or guest wanted to know about a crossfire limited or srt6. they would read a lot about things going wrong ,,,what about things going right
well lets see, I got my srt6 in May 2008 with 18000 miles on it, had ""O"" problems, I mean no problems at all. At 30000 miles, June 2011 Rudy installed the V8, still no problems ,, Oh I did replace the battery once about 2 years ago.OH do i count the three differentials that i blue out of it.? I had a SC Pully, a duel Needswings intake,Jerry's tune,rear cat delete,opened grille, jim
This is for all crossfires, coupes, and roadsters,,, limited,,,srt6,,and V8's

Re: Crossfire's with no or little problems
I have 93,000 miles and the car is the best built and most reliable little hot rod I have ever owned. Up to 70,000 I had not one single problem ever. At 70,000 miles I replaced the battery and I instaleed a V8. At around 90,000 miles I replaced my first crank shaft position sensor. At 92,000 miles I repaced the speed sensor. I am still using the V6 n/a trans with the V8 and have to say these transmissions are pretty stout!

Re: Crossfire's with no or little problems
I have had just a couple things done under warranty. A new ic pump and the common transmission leak. The seat warmers were replaced by the dealer before I picked up the car. I started at 28k miles and now at 44k I am planning on keeping this car. Really been pretty dependable

Re: Crossfire's with no or little problems
I've had mine for three years and the only problem was the common valve cover oil leak which was fixed under warranty, and a rear camber out of adjustment I had to fix myself with a KMAC adjustable bushing. It's been a very solid and reliable car, but it's also a pampered garage queen.

Apart from maintenance and mods, I have spent $1.13 (including taxes) on parts, the dollar got me ten little diodes and I needed just one of them to fix a relay.
The '04 car has only 23,000 miles, a garage queen.

Re: Crossfire's with no or little problems
Only problem was the A/C control head went south. It was running the fan erratic. Sometimes on when switch off, sometime off when switch on. Local Chrysler dealership replaced under warranty, now only occasionally the fan will run on lowest speed when switch is in off position (I can live with that). The rest was MODS and oil changes/fuel!

Re: Crossfire's with no or little problems
I bought my limited in January 2009 brand new. It is my daily driver and now has 71,500 miles on it. The only two problems I've had were the leaking valve cover gasket, and my amp stopped working. Both happened around the 20,000 mile mark and were covered under warranty. I haven't had any problems since. I love my crossfire!
