1993 Chrysler Concorde: engine stalls while driving

Filed Jul 20, 2004 · Steering · 80,800 miles · TX

1. No gradual signs. One day, front end very unstable, shaking and wobbling - as if front end not aligned or bad tires / inflation. Steering the vehicle was a challenge & felt very unsafe. Same day, I took vehicle to tire store to have looked at, tires checked / rotated if needed. Replaced one rear tire that was soon to be needed and checked inflation on others, etc. 5:30pm, I was sent on my way. Car drove better it seemed - for approx. 4 miles. 2. 5:45pm - at red stop light, while waiting for light to change everything seemed fine with vehicle. Once light turned green, I was 2nd car in line to proceed... When I tried to accelerate forward, vehicle would not go. I thought may have stalled - no. It would just not go. I got out of vehicle while trying to direct traffic around me... Looked at front of car, nothing. Bent down to look at tires & both front tires were facing (turned) inward - towards one another. I have never seen a vehicle do this !!! Thank god I was stopped at a stop light when this happened. Had vehicle towed to mechanic and was told bolt connecting upper tie rod to rack is broken off in rack !!! 3. Estimate was given - however, I have a problem with bolts breaking on any equipment. Vehicle is unsafe and sitting in driveway. I think chrysler should have it repaired. Vehicle has 80,000 miles and is a 1993 concorde.

On 09/11/03 I purchased a used 1993 chrysler concorde. About a month later the low fuel gauge and airbag lights started coming on, nd my tank is at least half full all the time. The problem is that I never know when the lights will come on and when they do, it causes the vehicle to sometimes stall and jerk violently as if I've been hit from the rear and gas fumes are so strong that I have to drive with the windows down. I took the car back to the dealership and spoke with private mechanics and explained it to them but noone could find any problem. I recently found a website listing persons with some of the same problems I've experienced with this vehicle and find it amazing that we haven't all become a fatality because of the many problems with it. I have a hood that won't stay up, a trunk that sometimes opens by itself, the gauges on the instrument panel goes off and the heater comes on at full speed, acceleration when changing gears from parking to drive and on and on. I understand that problems come with used cars but some of these issuses were there when the car was brand new and was recalled. I will be going to the dealership again, only this time I will have some of these issues in wirting and hopefully they can give me a better answer than. *ak "I found nothing" (except my money). Before this car I drove a 1994 plymouth acclaim which I bought in 1995. It served me really well for 8 years with me driving back and forth to my hometown in mississippi, sometimes twice a year. The adjustments made on it were normal for wear and tear after that long, and it did make some of the same noises as the concorde, but I don't think I'll be buying another chrysler vehicle after I trade this one. I pray that it doesn't catch fire or blow up before I can.
