Chrysler Pt Cruiser 2003 Suspension Rear Review #769493

CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003 car safety problem was reported on Aug 21, 2002.CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003, manufactured by CHRYSLER GROUP LLC had a problem with SUSPENSION:REAR . the complaint involves a missing part, the real stabilizer bar. this model states on the window sticker that a rear stabilizer bar is included. this car does not have a real stabilizer bar. the dealer said that he could install one for $520. chrysler would not reimburse the dealer because they claim that they beefed up the real axle and that is their stabilizer bar. i contend that this is misleading the public, particularly an informed public that knows what a stabilizer bar is. they continue to produce this model with this misleading information on the window stickers. i ask why do they show a rear stabilizer bar in their parts computer that the dealer located and offered to install for $520 if what they claim is true. the service manager agreed that this was misleading but refused to absorb the costs. other owners with same model report that their cars are missing this part as well. i hope that you can correct this situation by requiring chrysler to install the part at no cost to the owners. dt.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3C8FY78G93T.

CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003 car safety problem was reported on Dec 10, 2004.CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003, manufactured by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION had a problem with WHEELS . i have a 2003 chrysler pt cruiser with chrome plated wheels. i had a flat tire and brought the vehicle to a tire store for repair. they said there was nothing wrong with the tire but the wheels were corroded to the point that the air leaked out around the valve stem. i took the vehicle to the local chrysler dealer and they ordered new wheels and said they would be replaced under warranty. when the wheels came in they called me and i setup an appointment to have them installed. i took the car there and they said they would call me when it was done. they called three hours later and said they could not replace the wheels under warranty because chrysler recently changed their policy. they said the corrosion was due to enviornmental reasons due to the area i live. southwestern new york. the car has only been through one winter and part of another. these wheels were standard equipment on the model i purchased. i feel this is a tremendous safety hazzard as you can not tell the air has leaked out unless you look at the tire. it has been down to five lbs. of air and you can't tell while driving down the road. i would think the tire could come off the wheel and cause loss of control and serious injury.*ak.Mileage was 20000 miles.

Chrysler Pt Cruiser 2003 Electrical System Review #10120822

CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003 car safety problem was reported on Nov 18, 2004.CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003, manufactured by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . shortly after purchasing our brand new 2003 pt cruiser, we noticed the dash lights and headlights would occasionally flicker for no apparent reason. at first, it was very intermittent and we did not pay much attention to it. however, since about the middle of october of 2004, the problem has gotten much worse. now whenever the brake is applied, the dash lights and the headlights flicker very noticeably, and the frequency of the flickering for no reason has increased dramatically. on november 18, 2004, we took the cruiser into spokane chrysler to correct the problem (invoice 147545). spokane chrysler was very courteous and tried diligently to fix the problem. they replaced the generator, the powertrain control module, and even tried a new battery -- unfortunately, none of their efforts fixed the problem. spokane chrysler did discover that this flickering lights defect was not unique to our cruiser. the technician tested several 2002, 2004, and even brand new 2005 pt cruisers and found that in each of these models, while not all, but some of them had the same defective electrical system. this problem is particularly disturbing considering the nature of many of the pt cruiser’s control systems. the pt is in many respects a fly-by-wire type of vehicle. everything from throttle control, air/fuel mix, speed control, automatic transmission shifting, traction control, to abs brake control is governed by electronics. the flickering lights are a defect that can clearly be seen, but what about defects that cannot be so easily seen. what about a brake control ‘flicker’ or an erratic throttle control ‘flicker’ that you do not notice until it is too late. or, what happens if it is pitch dark, you are rounding a curve at 60 mph, and the headlights flicker out and stay out! at this time, the problem has still not been fixed. we feel chrysler has two options--either fix the defect immediately (this is our preferred choice) or replace the vehicle immediately. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 43 miles.

(i noticed that when i got the new leads that the connectors were of a better material). due to this not having any rime or reason as to why the battery kept going dead and no one had any idea why this was happening i simply had to wait until i discovered the cause. in dec 2007 i went to start the car and sure enough the battery was dead. however this time when i jumped the battery the fog light on the dash stayed on and that is when i found the problem. i was unable to turn them off since the switch was already in the off position. my only recourse was to remove the fog light fuse. since removing the fog light fuse i have had no further issues to date. i still do not know the cause or the cure so, i logged on to this site to look for a service bulletin or information to tell me that and here i am. the mileage on the vehicle when this whole stuff started was approx 36,000 and it now has 42000 miles on it. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Chrysler Pt Cruiser 2003 problem was reported in SAN DIEGO, CA.

Chrysler Pt Cruiser 2003 Exterior Lighting Review #10244191

CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003 car safety problem was reported on Sept 14, 2008.CHRYSLER PT CRUISER 2003, manufactured by CHRYSLER LLC had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . shortly after leaving the house, the fog light indicator came on even though the headlights themselves were off. pressure on the end of the stalk turned the indicator off but it came back on when pressure was released. after parking and shutting off the engine, the indicator (and the fog lights themselves) remained on. removing the keys from the ignition had no effect. the only thing that turned the fog lights off was setting the turn indicator in the 'left turn' (down) position. further testing found that the only other way to turn off the fog lights was to remove the appropriate fuse from the interior fuse panel. researching the problem online turned up several message boards with a large number of drivers reporting this exact problem going back at least three years, which turns out to be caused by a failing multifunction switch.
