At 70 MPH driving on the highway, the rear window separated from the convertible top. Scared me to death and not knowing what happened I pushed the brake pedal to stop and almost got rear ended by the car behind me. After a short online research I found the service bulletin tsb 23-035-11 that extends the warranty on the convertible tops to 10 years/100,000 miles to some states mostly southern. However, after contacting chrysler and talking to [xxx] id [xxx] I was told that there was nothing that chrysler would do about it because the bulletin refers to 2005 models. I told her to escalate the complaint and later I've got a call from a [xxx] pretending she was a supervisor and told me that she never heard of any rear windows separating from the cloth convertible top. I explained to her that this is a factory defect and there are hundreds if not thousands of people with the same issue, complaining all over the internet about it, but she refused to do anything about it. After suggesting to her to look up the bulletin no tsb 23-035-11 she said there is no such thing. This is a serious issue and chrysler has to do something about it before someone dies as a result of these windows separating from the convertible top. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
The rear window on my 2006 crossfire came unglued and fell out. Have talked with chrysler and this is a major concern on the 2005 crossfires and chrysler has extended the convertible top warranty to 10 year/100,000 miles. The 2006 models are not covered but still suffer the same problem. The convertible tops for all years of crossfires are the same. My concern is that the top blew out traveling at 40 MPH and struck a street sign, what if it struck a car or pedestrian and injured, maimed or killed another person. There is a major design a flaw with the rear window to canvas top glue and chrysler should be held accountable and offer to fix or replace all convertible tops on the crossfires.
Adhesive holding rear window in place began to separate from convertible top. Other crossfire owners have reported total failure. This is a significant safety issue if/when the rear window completely separates and detaches from the vehicle and poses a hazard to others I.e., pedestrian, motorcycle riders, etc. All the tops were produced by the same manufacturer (karmann) although chrysler is only willing to replace certain 2005 models based on the state they were originally sold. This makes no sense, chrysler and the federal safety agency should recall all tops produced and replace them with a top with the rear window attached with some type of improved adhesive so the risk to others is eliminated.
Overnight the rear window has detached from the convertible top causing a safety issue. Some 2005 models have been recalled for the same issue, but not 2006 modes. I find online that others have had and are currently experiencing the same issues.
Tl* the contact owns a 2006 chrysler crossfire roadster. The contact stated that the vehicle was parked when he noticed that the rear windshield was unraveling and detaching from the convertible top. The contact stuffed a towel between the convertible top and the body to serve as a make-shift remedy. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and no assistance was provided. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 25,120.
Glass falling out of convertible top. Dealership admits to problems with 2005 model but not the 2006 model. No warranty for repairing the top according to dealership. Extended warranty purchased with car but it does not cover the top either.
The rear glass window has fallen off from the convertible top posing a safety issue. This is a known issue with this car as chrysler recalled 2005s for the same issue but not the 2006. I have found online that I am not the only one with this issue.
Rear window fell off of convertible top while driving. Chrysler says that while this has happened to this model in the past they don't cover this in the warranty. There needs to be a recall for this problem!
