| I was driving down the interstate at 65 mph and i started to hear this very low wine. i took my car into the dealership and they said it was my clutch. i had a 1200 clutch replacement done at approx 56000 and now at 101000 i am having an issure with the clutch not going into gear when its hot outside or the ac is on. my car works perfectly in the winter and early morning hours but once it reaches 85 ddegrees outside i am having to force it into gear. no car should have 3 clutches in less that 5 years. | |||

| On 12/6/10, i was in my 2007 pt cruiser when i was involved in an accident. i was proceeding straight thru an intersection when a 1993 nissan altima turned left in front of me (was coming form direction opposite me), striking me dead center of my front bumper. the crash did the following resulting damage to my pt cruiser: radiator smashed, rad. support broke, all wires on wiring harness cut (including the wire to the airbag sensor--the airbag did not deploy), hole busted into manifold, front bumper assembly torn off, hood bent/caused right-side passenger door to jam, broke starter completely off, and a multitude of other things. as a result of the severe damage, my pt cruiser was deemed unfixable and was totalled. this wreck occurred at a speed of less than 25 mph! what gets me is that if the speed had been any greater, my passenger and i would have been severely injured/possibly even fataly because of not having airbag protection. the mechanic at the body shop where my car was taken cab confirm this---i have copies of pictures that were taken of the car, along with a copy of the report that was submitted to the insurance companies involved. something need to be done about the location of the wiring harnes/airbag sensor wire so that nothing severely happens to another driver. i will never, never ever have/purchase another chrysler product---this wiring harness problem needs to be fixed asap! there were no injuries, except for a sore knee (mine), which i did end up going to the hospital later when the pain in my muscles/tendons got to severe---no bones were broken---just sore for several days. | |||
