#1422 of 1519 Re: Possible Purchase [kt2u] by Arge Nov 24, 2008 (2:22 pm)
Replying to: kt2u (Nov 03, 2008 1:07 pm) I also live in SE Michigan (Canton). I found that it handles fine unless there is a lot of snow. Our first snow last February was rough to drive in, but other than that no problem. Do you have the all weather tires? They are the continentals and suppose to be much better than the "sports". I have the all weather, but like I said, it is rough to drive in deep snow.   Arge
#1423 of 1519 Free alignment check and wipers first 12,000 miles? by ozark2 Dec 01, 2008 (9:00 am)
Is it true that if you have bought a new Crossfire you can get a free alignment check and wiper blades if you do so within 12 months and 12,000 miles?   Thanks! Replies to this message: smogdung (Dec 01, 2008 10:03 am)

Replying to: ozark2 (Dec 01, 2008 9:00 am) I bought mine on 12/5/07, as of today I have almost 18,000 miles on it. At about the 13-14 K miles point I noticed the fronts were wearing unevenly....outer treads on both tires significantly thinner than inner treads. I spoke with 2 dealerships & they both said that I was out of luck ...as the alignment was only covered for 12 months or 12,000 miles - whichever came first. About a week ago I got new tires for the front & discovered that nobody can do the alignment on a Crossfire except a Chrysler or Mercedes dealership.......I scheduled an alignment at a 3rd Chrysler dealership ($89) & as I was checking out....I asked, "Is there any chance this is covered by warranty ?" Service manager said "Yes, first alignment covered during warranty period." I guess he meant the 3 year / 36 K bumper to bumper period???? I was happy!!   Anyway, on another forum ...most say the original Conti All Season tires have rarely lasted over 20-25 K.....I got less than most I guess ...cause mine was slightly out of alignment from the factory.
#1425 of 1519 Emissions state inspection failure by bordercop Dec 02, 2008 (4:38 pm)
Just had my newly acquired 05 Crossfire coupe fail the emissions test in NY. They said I'd have to run the car somemore to reset the computer for emissions readings. Nothing was present due to the car either battery unplugged or something along those lines. The car only arrived from a dealer this week where I assume it sat for a month and perhaps had the battery disconnected. Would this cause my failure? I read the manual and turned the key to on and checked the engine light as it says and found no problem. Do you think it may have reset itself or programmed itself already and is safe to go back for a reinspection tomorrow?

Yes the codes stored in the computer can be not valid if the battery has been disconnected or recharged. Drive it for a week before trying the test again with at least 15 starts and ignition off stops before trying the test again. Replies to this message: bordercop (Dec 12, 2008 5:11 pm)

Replying to: hayneldan (Dec 06, 2008 9:36 pm) Thanks for the self assurance in this matter, drove me nuts. I put about 250 miles on it and started and stopped a bunch of times and finally passed the emissions test. Only problem, didn't beat the bad weather and the car got christened with road salt after a snow storm. Had no choice but to go out in the weather being on my last day to get the inspection done. Car road good in the snow and ice with the all season tires and traction control. Can't wait for good weather now.
#1429 of 1519 7/70 Warranty Coverage by bordercop Dec 12, 2008 (5:19 pm)
The Xfire I just bought from an Ebay purchase thru a dealer said I would get a 7/70 warranty Transferred to me. Now the dealer claims the 2005 doesn't offer it since its a Mercedes Engine. I sent him articles and even the window sticker which shows 7/70 coverage. They then said, the system isn't allowing them to process a 7/70 warranty and shows only the standard 3/36. Has anyone run into this problem before? I just feel they are trying to avoid the transfer fee as promised. I understand I am the second owner so this should be allowed. Is there a point of contact at Chrysler I should contact or just let the dealer keep trying as he says he is doing?

The payment of the fee is all that it will take to transfer to the second owner. Replies to this message: ronaldc (Dec 13, 2008 10:20 am) bordercop (Dec 16, 2008 2:24 pm)

Replying to: zq8 (Dec 12, 2008 8:10 pm) I had the same problem. I called Chrysler Service Contracts at 1-800-521-9922. Give them the VIN and they can tell you if the 7/70 in still in effect. In my case, the 7/70 was not transferable since I was the third owner. Replies to this message: bordercop (Dec 16, 2008 2:24 pm)
