2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Body & Structure Problems

I heard a strange noise, so I looked under the front end of the car. Saw all that missing. This has happened in the last two weeks. I do not drive in bad weather.

CAR WAS REAR ENDED AND SHOVED INTO ANOTHER CAR WHILE WAITING AT A RED LIGHT. FRONT AND REAR END CRUSHED, BUMPER CAME OFF, RADIATOR AND FRONT END DAMAGE, WINDSHIELD BROKEN. AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER. AT VARIOUS TIMES, THE HATCHBACK DOOR OPENED BY ITSELF AND THE DOOR OPEN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 66,000.

DRIVING 70 MPH ON FREEWAY. REAR QUARTER WINDOW DETACHED FROM VEHICLE. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL BUT ONLY COVERS THE MODEL YEAR BEFORE (2005). THIS IS OBVIOUSLY AN ISSUE WITH THE 2006 VERSION AS WELL. *TR

2006 PT CRUISER. DEFECTIVE MOTOR MOUNTS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD I NEED TO REPLACE THE MOTOR MOUNTS AND THE CV JOINTS BECAUSE THE BAD MOUNTS CAUSED THE ENGINE TO SHIFT AND EAT UP THE CV JOINTS. I DID ONLINE REVIEWS OF VARIOUS CRUISER FORUM AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CRUISER'S MOTOR MOUNTS. DO NOT DELAY IN INVESTIGATING THIS AND CALLING FOR A RECALL. PEOPLE ARE REFUSING TO BY OTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCTS BECAUSE OF THESE PROBLEMS...AND DISCONTINUING THE MODEL DOES NOT GIVE THEM THE RIGHT TO IGNORE THE NEED FOR RECALLS FOR CURRENT OWNERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO OPEN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE DOOR FROM THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS UNABLE TO. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR BY OPENING THE WINDOW AND THEN THE DOOR FROM THE EXTERIOR. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND THE REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE DOORS. THE CONTACT NOTICED A PLASTIC PIECE ON THE DOOR WOULD OVER HEAT AND CAUSE THE DOORS NOT TO OPEN FROM THE INTERIOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND THE TECHNICIAN STATED THE DOOR PANEL HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2006 PT CRUISER IS FACTORY PAINTED METALLIC SILVER, AND I WAS CONSTANTLY HOLDING UP MY HAND AND COVERING THE DASH WITH CLOTH ETC...TO PREVENT IT FROM BLINDING ME WHILE DRIVING ON SUNNY DAYS. ON A TUESDAY EVENING IN AUGUST 2007 WHILE ENTERING ONTO A HIGHWAY THE EVENING SUN GLARED OFF THE RIGHT PANEL OF THE DASH SO BRIGHTLY IT BLINDED ME AND CAUSED ME TO BEGIN TO HAVE AN IMMEDIATE SEIZURE TYPE RESPONCE. MY EYES WERE FLASHING WITH LIGHTS, THEN MY RIGHT ARM WAS TINGLING AND WENT NUMB, THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY FACE WENT NUMB, MY RIGHT TEMPLE BEGAN TO THROB HORRIBLY, AND THIS LASTED FOR ONE HOUR. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO SO I HAD TO HAND SAND MY ENTIRE DASHBOARD WITH SANDPAPER AND EMORY BOARDS! IT LOOKS REDICULOUS AND IT IS INSANE THAT I MUST DRIVE MY NEW CAR THIS WAY. THE LASTING CONSEQUENCE HAS BEEN A RETINAL BURN THAT STAYS IN THE CENTER OF MY VISION AT ALL TIMES NOW. I AM A PROFESSIONAL ARTIST AND WRITER, SO NOW AND PERHAPS THE REST OF MY LIFE---I MUST LOOK THROUGH THIS WHITE SWIRL IN THE CENTER OF MY EYE. THE SAME SEIZURE HAPPENED A MONTH AGO WHILE I WAS WORKING IN MY COMPUTER AS I MUST DO DAILY FOR MY JOB. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE PERMENANT AND I WANT CHYSLER TO PAY. I CAN HARDLY OPEN MY EYES OUTSIDE NOW, AND I LIVE IN A CONSTANT FEAR OF THESE SEIZURES HITTING ME ANY WHERE AND ANY TIME NOW. *TR
