What owners say
Dt*: the contact stated that there was blue smoke coming out from the exhaust system and a loud ticking noise of the pistons hitting the head of cams. While driving, the engine eventually seized and failed resulting in an non-drivable state. When the manufacturer was alerted, they determined there was no problem with the 2.7 liter engine. Updated 09/11/06.
Since I purchased a 1999 chrysler concorde new, I have had the car in the dealer over 20 times. I have numerous electrical issues, I have been stranded numerous times and I have incurred costs over the last 4 years that not only forced me to rent a car over and over, but the time lost from work is inexcusable. I have had brake failure almost resulting in a car crash. Now, my car is in the dealership due to smoke smell burning wires and a computer and electrical issue. Chrysler states they don't know if they willl pay for this problem. This has been happening since day one and it's dangerous. I am in fear for the safety of my family riding in this car. It is a death trap. This car should have been deemed recalled under the lemon law. I know various people who have the same car and they have had the same problems that chrysler ignores and fails to deal with it.
