STRUCTURE

WHEN CAR DRIVES OVER A BUMP OR UNEVEN PAVEMENT THAT WHOLE FRONT END OF VEHICLE SHAKES ALONG WITH STEERING COLUMN. IT TAKES A FEW MINUTES FOR SHAKING TO STOP- BRAKING MAKES IT WORSE - MUST SLOW DOWN TO 30 MPH. HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE 4 TIMES TO CONRAD'S AUTO SERVICE - FIRST THEY REPLACED STABILIZER BAR, CAR STILL SHOOK. THEN REPLACED TIRES-STILL SHOOK. THIRD VISIT REPLACED SHOCKS-STILL SHOOK. FOURTH VISIT REPLACED BRAKES AND CAR STILL SHOOK. CONRAD'S CHECKED OVER ENTIRE FRONT END AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING- VEHICLE IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ON HIGHWAY-BECAUSE SHAKING MAKES DRIVING UNCONTROLLABLE. *AK *TS

NHTSA complaint #713217 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR

DRIVER DOOR MUST BE REPLACED COMPLETLY . THE WELD DID NOT HOLD THE SHELL AND INNER WORKINGS TOGETHER, ALLOWING THE DOOR TO SWING OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO DOOR LATCH. THE DRIVER DOOR BROKE WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROX 40 MILES PER HOUR. DRIVER HELD DOOR TOGETHER WHILE DRIVING HOME. THE PASSENGER DOOR CAN BE REPAIRED BY BODY SHOP BY RE WELDING THE DOOR TOGETHER. THE LOCKS HAVE NOT BEEN PERMANTLY DAMAGED. BOTH ARE AT THE COST OF THE OWNER. MANUFACTURE WILL PAY NOTHING. MY CONCERN NOW IS THE SAFETY OF THE OTHER TWO DOORS AND THEIR DURABILITY. ALSO IF THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN CORRECTED BY CRYSTLER FOR THE FUTURE, AND THAT THE AMERICAN MANUFACTURER WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT THAT APPARENTLY HAS A DEFECT OF SOME SORT.
