What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
The glass window in the convertible roof has come loose allowing water to enter the car and damage electronics. It is a safety hazard as if it fell off driving it could have killed someone!
Will not start, will turn over, no code to find out what wrong with the car need to be fix. Car dealership are keeping car for months trying to find the preambles. It a same that we have these car company's that can do this with no ideal what they are doing to people.
The rear window is glass and the glue bond to the convertible top fails. I called chrysler in august of 2016 when our window fell loose and I learned of an extended warranty that was never offered to us. They told me they had an extended warranty for the car but my vin did not qualify and it was only for 10 years.
Glass rear have detached/fell out of top. I heard that was a recall help. Seat heating stop working
Rear window fell out of convertible top on 07/23/2017 while parked in a walmart lot. Weather was a hot 90 + day in plano, texas. Request made to chrysler dealer and fca llc to repair...denied by both parties.
Headlights so fogged over they had to be replaced or the car could not get inspected. $947 for each headlight. Glass separated from convertible top. No recalls or help from chrysler due to manufacturer defect. Car was sitting in driveway when the window fell out. Car is garage kept and has 62,000 miles.
