POWER TRAIN
AUTOMATIC SHIFT ON THE FLOOR. DOES NOT SHIFT CORRECTLY. KEY CANNOT BE REMOVED. IT STAYS ON ACCESSORY AND DRAINS MY BATTERY. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED BECAUSE OF THE YEAR OF THE CAR. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN AUGUST 2012. RAN FINE UNTIL 06/01/13. I FEEL IT SHOULD STILL BE UNDER THE RECALL. IT DOESN'T GO INTO PARK PROPERLY. I FEEL THIS COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE.

NHTSA complaint #10294979 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
1. "BUSY RATTLE", NOT LOUD, BUT CONTINUOUS, MOST NOTICEABLE ON SMOOTH ROADS ABOVE 30 MPH, FROM FRONT FRAME SUB-ASSEMBLY, FOUR MOUNTING BOLTS. THE SUB-FRAME ASSEMBLY IS ALSO CALLED THE "MOTOR CARRIER" AND IS BOLTED FROM THE BOTTOM UP TO THE FRAME (ABOVE). EACH BOLT GOES THROUGH A LARGE RUBBER BUSHING (ALSO CALLED AN INSULATOR). WITH 75,000 THOUSAND MILES AND NO OIL LEAKS, THE RUBBER BUSHINGS ARE ALL DRIED OUT AND FLAKING APART. EACH INSULATOR COST OVER A HUNDRED DOLLARS AND IS ONLY AVAILABLE FROM CHRYSLER. THE COST OF REPLACING VIA A QUOTE FROM PEP BOYS IS OVER SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS. THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE MADE FROM A HARD YELLOW PLASTIC TYPE MATERIAL AND SHOULD BE MORE DURABLE. 2. ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC AT PEP BOYS THE VIBRATION WILL WEAR THE BOLTS AND EVENTUALLY THE ENGINE COULD DROP DOWN. 3. PEP BOYS RECOMMENDS THE BUSHINGS AND THE BOLTS TO BE REPLACED. THE NEW BUSHINGS FROM CHRYSLER HAVE A 1 YEAR WARRANTY. REVIEWED THE COMPLAINTS FOR THIS PROBLEM AND DID NOT SEE ANY ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY THE RATTLE OR A REPORT THAT THE ENGINE ACTUALLY COULD FALL OUT ON THE ROAD. THE DATA BASE IS NOT WELL ORGANIZED AS IT IS SEGMENTED BY MONTHLY REPORTS. I CAN SEE HOW THE NOISE MIGHT CAUSE ONE TO INCREASE THE RADIO VOLUME AND NOT HEAR AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE. THESE BUSHINGS WILL BE REPLACED.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TRANSMISSION FAILURE, I READ THAT CHRYSLER HAD A RECALL ON TRANSMISSIONS FOR THE 95 CHRYSLER CONCORDE, DUE TO SHIFTING PROBLEMS, MY 95 CHRYSLER CONCORDE, DROVE FINE AND THEN SUDDENLY STOPPED, IF I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, THEN RESTART IT, IT WILL DRIVE, UNTIL IT TRIES TO SHIFT TO SECOND THEN IT WILL NOT DRIVE ANYMORE, AT ALL, UNTIL I SHUT IT OFF AND THEN RESTART IT, THEN IT WILL IMMEDIATELY DRIVE AGAIN. I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT IT IS MOST LIKELY A SOLENOID SHIFT PACK, WHICH WAS RECALLED BY CHRYSLER.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY VEHICLE DOES NOT CHANGE INTO SECOND GEAR. I FOUND OUT WHILE I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND BECAME A HAZARD TO OTHER DRIVERS. WHEN IN REVERSE, IT HAS A "CLUNK" NOISE WHEN THE GAS IS APPLIED. THE PROBLEM CAME ALL OF A SUDDEN WITHOUT WARNING. THERE ARE ALSO COMPUTER AND IGNITION PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE. IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS CRACKLING IN THE DASHBOARD WHEN THE HEATER IS ON, THE IGNITION SWITCH CANNOT BE TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE ON POSITION WHEN THE CAR IS ON OR THE ABS LIGHT WILL COME ON AND PREVENTS FUNCTION OF THE HEATER.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY 2003 CONCORDE SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON 695 EXPRESSWAY. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I STARED TO LOSE POWER. ON 06/30/08 QUICKLY I PUT MY CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND IT STARTED BACK UP AND CONTINUE TO WORK BUT WOULD NOT GO PASS 60 MPH. LUCKY FOR ME THERE WAS NO HEAVY TRAFFIC OR I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT. THERE WAS NO SIGN THAT THE CAR WAS GOING TO LOSE POWER AS SOON AS THE LIGHT POP ON THE CAR STARTED TO LOSE POWER. I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND AT THAT TIME THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A SHORTED UPSTREAM 02 SENSOR . I PARKED THE CAR AND DID NOT DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL 09/27/08 TO THE DEALERSHIP THE CAR WAS REPAIRED. ON 09/29/08 AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR 12 MILES THE LIGHT THEN POP BACK ON AGAIN AND THE SAME THING HAPPEN IT SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AT THIS TIME THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A CODE THAT CAME DURING THE TEST STATED THAT THE CAT CONVERTER INTERNAL WAS DEFECTIVE AND THE DOWN STREAM 02 SENSOR. I HAD THAT REPLACED. ON 10/02/08 AFTER THAT REPAIR I DROVE ANOTHER 24 MILES THIS TIME AND AS USUAL THE LIGHT POP BACK ON AGAIN BUT THIS TIME THE CAR SOUND AS IF IT WAS IN NEUTRAL OR DIFFERENT SHIFT AND WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED WITH A ROARING LOUD NOISE. I THEN PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AGAIN AND IT CONTINUE TO DRIVE NORMAL. ENGINE LIGHT CONSTANTLY STAYED ON. I RETURNED THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR AT THIS TIME THEY SAID A DIFFERENT CODE APPEAR AND SAID THE P0420,PO430 AND THEY ORDER A ED CAT CONVERTER AND NOW THE LEFT UPSTREAM 02 SENSOR. WHICH THEY HAD ALREADY REPLACED THE RIGHT CONVERTER AND BOTH SENSORS NOW THEY ARE WORKING ON THE LEFT. CAR WAS REPAIRED ON 10/06/08 AFTER THAT REPAIR I DROVE THE CAR TO WORK AND ON THE WAY HOME THE ENGINE LIGHT POP BACK ON FOR THE THIRD TIME, TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NOW THE CODE SAY PO600 AND THE PCM AND SOLENOID WAS PROGRAMMED AND REPLACED. NOW I HAVE TO GET UP AT 6AM TO TAKE THE CAR BACK.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
THE SHIFTER WOULD APPEAR TO BE IN PARK AND YOU COULD TAKE KEYS OUT OF CAR. THE NEXT MORNING I WENT TO START MY CAR IT WOULD NOT START, I CHECKED ALL THE USUAL STUFF , GAS LEVEL ,BATTERY THEN IT DAWNED ON ME TO CHECK THE SHIFTER SINCE I WAS UNABLE IN THE PAST TO START OTHER CARS IT MUST BE IN A PARK POSITION (WAS MARRIED TO AN ASE CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO DID LOSS OF RESTORATIONS) I PULLED THE LEVEL FORWARD AND THE CAR STARTED IMMEDIATELY. OVER TIME THE SHIFTING FROM P,R,N,D BECAME MORE AND MORE DIFFICULT TO WHERE IT STUCK IN 3RD GEAR (WHICH I NEVER USE) WHEN I HAD THE CAR TOWED THE FLOOR SHIFTER REMAINED STUCK . YET WE WERE ABLE TO PUSH THE CAR OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AS EASY AS PIE. 383.44 LATER IT WAS THE FLOOR SHIFTER AND CABLE.

POWER TRAIN
MY HUSBAND, 2 CHILDREN, AGES 4 AND 6, AND MYSELF WERE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN OUR 1996 CHRYSLER CONCORDE SUDDENLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND STARTED ROLLING BACKWARD DOWN A HILL. WE HADN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS UP TO THIS POINT. OUR CAR ONLY HAS 40,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT. A TRANSMISSION REPAIR FIRM TOLD US IT WAS OUR TRANSMISSION AND GAVE US A DIAGNOSTIC CODE OF "P1787". WE CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX RIGHT NOW. WE HAVE TRIED IT ON OUR RESIDENTIAL STREET AND IT GOES FOR A FEW YARDS AND TRANSMISSION SLIPS. I HAVE HAD A LOT OF MEDICAL PROBLEMS THIS YEAR AND NOT HAVING SAFE TRANSPORTATION HAS MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO GET MEDICAL CARE, NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT MY CHILDREN COULD HAVE BEEN HURT BY THIS VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONING.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. OUR 2004 CHRYSLER CONCORDE LXI HAS DEVELOPED MANY PROBLEMS OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS, I WILL TRY TO LIST THEM HERE. WE HAVE HAD MANY EVENTS OF FALSE READINGS FROM THE BRAIN OF THE CAR ACCORDING TO OUR MECHANIC. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AS DOES THE OIL AND TRANSMISSION LIGHT. THERE HAS BEEN MANY TIMES THAT THE CAR HAS JUST CUT OFF AT DIFFERENT STAGES IN DRIVING. WE HAVE BEEN IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, OR GOING DOWN A CITY STREET, OR DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, OR JUST COME TO A STOP LIGHT, OR JUST MAKING A TURN AFTER SLOWING DOWN. SO AS YOU CAN SEE THE SPEEDS THAT THE CAR CUTS OFF VARIES FROM 0 TO 5 AND FROM 5 TO 40 AND FROM 40 TO 70 MILES PER HOUR. THIS CAR HAS SPUTTERED, JERKED, SPEWED BLACK SMOKE, RAN SO ROUGH THAT WE THOUGHT IT WOULD SHAKE APART. WE HAVE HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SO MANY TIMES BECAUSE THE CAR CUT OFF, THAT IS IF IT WOULD MAKE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. SOMETIMES IT TAKES FROM 5 MINUTES TO 45 MINUTES BEFORE THE CAR WILL RE CRANK AGAIN. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR SERVICED REGULARLY AS IT SHOULD BE BY CERTIFIED MECHANICS. THEY HAVE PUT THE DIAGNOSTICS MACHINE ON IT SO MANY TIMES AND THE READINGS ARE ALWAYS FALSE ACCORDING TO THEM, BECAUSE IF IT WERE A TRUE READING THE CAR WOULDN'T BE RUNNING AT ALL. WE HAVE BEEN SO LUCKY THAT NO ONE HAS BEEN INJURED OR KILLED SO FAR BECAUSE OF THESE PROBLEMS. BECAUSE WE HAVE HAD SO MANY CLOSE COLLISIONS BECAUSE OF THESE PROBLEMS, I AM AFRAID FOR MY WIFE WHO HAS TO DRIVE THIS CAR TO WORK. I CAN ONLY PRAY THAT SOMETHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR GOD FORBID EVEN KILLED !!!

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
COMPLETE LOSS OF TRANSMISSION. THIS TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN PROPERLY TAKEN CARE OF -TWO FLUID CHANGES; WHEN I WENT TO GET IT REPAIRED AT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP I WAS ADVISED THERE WERE SO MANY PARTS ON BACK ORDER FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT IT WOULD BE A MONTH OR BETTER TO GET THE TRANSMISSION REPAIRED. TOTAL REPLACEMENT BECAME NECESSARY. MY OPINION IS -IF THERE ARE SO MANY ON "BACK ORDERED " THAT IT WILL TAKE A MONTH OR MORE TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM ACROSS THE FLEET...ONE I SHOULD NOT COMPLETELY PAY FOR.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
THE CAR I WAS DRIVING WAS A 1999 CHRYSLER CONCORD THAT HAD BEEN IN EXCELLENT DRIVING UP UNTIL THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. JUST THREE DAYS EARLIER THE AUTOMOBILE WAS SERVICED AT A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER FOR AN OIL AND OIL FILTER CHANGE. I INQUIRED AT THE PICK UP EVENT IF THE BRAKES WERE OKAY AND IT WAS REPORTED TO ME THAT THE WERE FINE AND THAT EVERYTHING WITH THIS AUTOMOBILE WAS FINE. ON SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 2006, I STARTED THIS AUTOMOBILE IN MY GARAGE TO GO TO CHURCH. AFTER PUTTING MY SEAT BELT ON, I USUALLY INCH MYSELF OUT OF MY GARAGE VERY, VERY SLOWLY. HOWEVER, THIS TIME AFTER ADJUSTING THE TRANSMISSION LEVER FROM PARK TO DRIVE MY AUTOMOBILE TOOK OFF SO FAST I COULD NOT CONTROL IT AT ALL. I HIT THE BREAKS AS HARD AS I COULD BUT MY AUTOMOBILE WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN AT ALL. NOT ONLY THAT, I COULD CONTROL THE STEERING OF MY AUTOMOBILE AT ALL. I LIVE NEAR THE PACIFIC OCEAN AND THERE IS A DRAINAGE DITCH RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET WHERE I LIVE THAT CONNECTS WITH THE OCEAN. THERE IS A CHAIN-LINKED WIRE FENCE THAT SEPARATES THE STREET FROM THE DRAINAGE DITCH. MY AUTOMOBILE RACED OUT OF MY GARAGE, DOWN MY DRIVEWAY, WENT ACROSS THE STREET AND HIT THE CURB ACROSS THE STREET WHERE IT FORCE MY AUTOMOBILE TO SWERVE ACROSS THE ADJOINING STREET TO BREAK THROUGH THE CHAIN-LINKED FENCE WHERE IT WENT DOWN A CONCRETE EMBANKMENT FOR AN APPROXIMATE 20-FOOT DROP UNTIL IT COMPLETELY STOPPED IN THE WATER. THE CAR THEN BEGAN FILLING UP WITH WATER UNTIL IT BECAME COMPLETELY SUBMERGED. FORTUNATELY, A NEIGHBOR HAPPENED TO BE LOOKING OUT OF HIS SECOND STORY WINDOW OF HIS HOUSE WHEN THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED AND IMMEDIATELY CALLED 911. EMERGENCY PERSONNEL ARRIVED PROMPTLY TO SAVE MY LIFE BY PULLING ME OUT OF THE WINDOW OF MY AUTOMOBILE. I WAS TAKEN BY PARAMEDIC PERSONAL BY AMBULANCE TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM OF A NEARBY HOSPITAL WERE IT WAS DETERMINED I HAD NOT SUSTAINED ANY IMMEDIATE INJURIES AT ALL. THE AUTOMOBILE WAS LATER DETERMINED TO BE A TOTALED WRECK.
