#633 of 749 Re: Front end noises [farout] by d08 Mar 07, 2009 (4:26 pm)
Replying to: farout (Mar 07, 2009 11:06 am) Thank you for your advice. I have only taken it to the one dealership where I bought it from. I bought this car new and I think I have all my papers where I have taken it in to them. I also think that the service dept. is getting tired of me calling them with these problems, I have been nice to them and have not lost my temper. I just didn't want Chrysler to blow me off too. Will they actually listen to me???   Thank you...... Replies to this message: farout (Mar 08, 2009 11:33 am) d08 (Mar 08, 2009 2:52 pm) farout (Mar 10, 2009 11:36 am)

Replying to: d08 (Mar 07, 2009 4:26 pm) d08: By calling or actually going to the dealership and directly talking to the Service manager and the owner/manager they most certiainly have to do something. By face to face they can't say they did not understand you. I feel 99.8%sure Chrysler will listen and do something to get your situation solved.   Personally, I would work for them to replace your Pac with a 2008 PAC. Or have them fix yours even if they had to replace the transmission. These are very well built vehicles and very high on the safety ratings. I too have had the motor mounts replaced, and the Torque Converter replaced and several reflashes. I consider these minor problems considering the PAC has a Lifetime warranty on the powertrain. I added the Max care Service contract so our PAC is just about bumper to bumper for a very long time. That's my oiinion.   farout Replies to this message: d08 (Mar 08, 2009 2:52 pm) farout (Mar 10, 2009 11:36 am)

Replying to: farout (Mar 08, 2009 11:33 am) Did the reflashes finally work?? They have just reflashed mine again, they said that a new reflash came out in Jan of this year. I like the car, its roomy and classy. Do I need to get the Max care also and how do I contact them? I really appreciate your advice.   What model is yours?

#636 of 749 Question on contacting Chrysler by Biggd1999 Mar 08, 2009 (3:33 pm)
Well I think I have another broken motor mount and the drivetrain vibration is getting worse, the shudder between 15-2k rpms is worse and the clunking when changing gears is back. I found an oil substance on the garage floor and I know it's not oil so it must be the rear mount again.. The car has 37,500 miles on it now and is out of warranty. I bought it used with 19k miles on it, can I contact Chrysler directly to see what they will do for me? I am tired of this car and it has more problems than I have ever had with a car. Just recently the gas mileage has taken a major dump with only seeing about 280 miles out of a tank...I can fill it up completely and drive 50 miles or so and loose over a 1/4 tank of gas..   I just want the car fixed or replaced.. the dealer I bought it from will not return my phone calls regarding the problems I am having. I will be calling them back tomorrow morning...   Any advice?
#637 of 749 wow ---- did I get into a bad car here or what? by tlars Mar 10, 2009 (9:03 am)
I just bought our PAC limited from a dealer in Prescott AZ. It's an '07 with only 18k miles and under factory warranty. I too am getting a handful of spots in the garage from 'something'. It's only a few drops each time of almost clear oily liquid. Am I already deep under water or what? Replies to this message: farout (Mar 10, 2009 11:24 am)

Replying to: tlars (Mar 10, 2009 9:03 am) tlars: The tranny fluid may be the problem, but the tranny is sealed and only the dealer can check the fluid level. This fluid is unlike the fluid of the past. Which means big bucks. Your warranty will cover what ever it is. Do you have the AWD? i=If you PAC was made before Jan 07 the TORQUE CONVERTER has a recall to be replace. As the dealer and they can tell by the VIN. The 07 was the only year with duel tail pipes, looks great right?   Motor mounts have also been noted for being weak, along with a lugging in 6th gear at 1500 to 2000 rpm's there is a reflash for when the tourque converter is replaced.   We really like our PAC AWD touring. We get 19 to 22 mpg in cold temps and 22 to 26 mpg in the summer. we have just a hair under 36,000 miles. Bought new it came with the Lifetime Powertrain warranty. We bought the Max Care Lifetime extended warranty, so we have a bumper to bumper coverage for the life time of us or Chrysler LLc. I am not sure if Chrysler will live as long as me....lol...uck!

I just looked at mine and the MFG date is 2/07.. Is it possible that mine could have the bad torque converter since I have all the symptoms you all explain ?   I really like the car, I just wish I could get the issues resolved..   Thanks!

Replying to: d08 (Mar 08, 2009 2:52 pm) d08: yes the reflashes worked. There have been a couple of TBS reflashes, and each one has made it shift smoother.. This transmission was the first for this vehicle and the 4. L engine was the first for use in this vehicle as well. So there are some small things to smooth out.   If you intend to keep the car past 36,000 I would get a Chrysler Service Contract. I got the max care $100 ded. one. But that is something to seriously consider. There is a 36 month no interest deal on these too.   as for the Jan. ref;ash, I don't know, I see if I can check it out.   farour

Replying to: Biggd1999 (Mar 10, 2009 11:34 am) Hey that was aquick responce, we are both on at the same time and that's rare.   I have heard of some past the Dec 06 date being replaced. Are you having shudder issues at 1500 to 2000 rpm in 6th gear? Heck with the lifetime powertarin warranty (if you bought it new) what more can we want. It will be fixed. How many miles on yours, you do have the 4.L engine and 6 speed auto right?   farout Replies to this message: Biggd1999 (Mar 10, 2009 1:17 pm) farout (Mar 10, 2009 1:46 pm) Biggd1999 (Mar 10, 2009 2:38 pm) and 2 more...

Replying to: psycho_sam_1 (Mar 06, 2009 10:09 am) Psycho: I may be wrong, but on the Chrysler Service Contracts I believe the longest you can get is until you get to 100,000 miles. Call and ask that's the only way to know for sure.   I have never lost money on a extended warranty yet. Frankly I would be pleased if I never ever used it.... it would be a perfect vehicle......just not my luck.   farout
