| Auto/transmission/electrical system. i'm just so glad that this is a drive by wire car, especially when the cars electrical system can't regulate its voltage properly. you would think that daimler would have the electrical system built as tough as nails. seeing that the cars life support is all dependent upon pulse power. so my complaint is do to the cars failure to regulate its power, it cooked my transmissions drive plate located internally on top of the valve body. then surged back to the transmission control module & fried that. and some how, and i can't figure out why this occurred but, the internal gears inside my throttle body got fused together. this is strange to me seeing that the gears are made out of a composite. so with all that has occurred it has left the car lifeless for over 90 days now. i have contacted chrysler corp. offices through there website, pleading with them to exchange the broken pieces. they only responded with contact you dealer so i have sent multiple parts and service requests to the two dealerships that i can go to. one is a five star dealership, and the other is not. i never once got a response from either one. daimler said take it to the dealership, so i replied the car does not drive, so again i requested a parts exchange, and again the same stock response contact your dealer...bla bla. i am more than qualified to install all parts that are needed to be replaced. i guess the rumors are all try, about chrysler turning their backs on customers once the car has been sold. all i know is i am not paying for this, or heads will roll. *jb | |||

| Its two things. i think because of one failure, it has caused another. the electronic system and over voltage, the failure of the voltage regulator in the alternator, i believe has caused the problems with the drivetrain (automatic transmission, and the hydrolic braking system) i have noticed significant pressure loss when applying brakes. in addition to that, when coming to a stop the car jerks back and forth in while in 1st or 2nd gear , as if the clutch wasn't engaging. however i could get that to jerking to stop if i applied the brakes really hard. 3-d wouldn't jerk, however it would slam down into the lower gears when coming to the stop. the electrical problem started happening back in october. the trans, and hydrolic issues just started happening may 23, 2005. | |||

| Car pops out of fist gear about every 100-200 miles. i have taken it to the chrysler dealership four times. each time they perform what star recommends. this never helps the problem. the car still pops out of gear. now i'm told because there unable to duplicate the problem, nothing else will be done. i explained to the dealer it does it between 100-200 miles. the tech's only drive the car 3-6 miles. *ak | |||

| Tl*the contact owns a 2004 chrysler crossfire. while traveling 20 mph, the vehicle's gears are slipping into first and second gear, causing the vehicle to shut off. the contact must restart the vehicle in order for the gears to function properly. the chrysler dealer referenced service bulletin # 2100505. the current mileage is 10,000 and failure mileage was 9,000. | |||

| Chrysler cross fire 2004. the manual transmission violently slips out of first gear into neutral after the car is moving the vechile and the clutch is disengaged. albeit infrequently. this causes a very dangerous situation, crossing traffic that isn't controlled via a sign or light. or, at any stop with someone behind you. in the 1,500 miles i've driven the car since i purchased it, i have narrowly avoided being rear-ended three times due to this problem. the dealership's service personnel have observed and verified the tendancy of it to slip from gear, (however chrysler stars reponded that the problem wasn't frequent enough to repair). leaving each start into traffic is the chance of a collision.*ak | |||
