The 6 speed transmission pops out of first gear on an intermitent basis when starting off. This problem has been ongoing since we purchased the car new.
2004 Chrysler Crossfire transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 13 of 13, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Car pops out of fist gear about every 100-200 miles. I have taken it to the chrysler dealership four times. Each time they perform what "star" recommends. This never helps the problem. The car still pops out of gear. Now I'm told because there unable to duplicate the problem, nothing else will be done. I explained to the dealer it does it between 100-200 miles. The tech's only drive the car 3-6 miles.
Chrysler cross fire 2004. The manual transmission violently slips out of first gear into neutral after the car is moving the vechile and the clutch is disengaged. Albeit infrequently. This causes a very dangerous situation, crossing traffic that isn't controlled via a sign or light. Or, at any stop with someone behind you. In the 1,500 miles I've driven the car since I purchased it, I have narrowly avoided being rear-ended three times due to this problem. The dealership's service personnel have observed and verified the tendancy of it to slip from gear, (however chrysler stars reponded that the problem wasn't frequent enough to repair). Leaving each start into traffic is the chance of a collision.
