While traveling 55mph; steering was hard to control/ difficult to turn and very stiff. Rack & pinion was cause of problem. Also, vehicle not shifting into park. Transmission line leaked fluid. Coupling was causing a leak between rubber tubing which was inserted into metal tubing. In addition, fuel rail would also leak/ ABS brakes started to lock up when applied/ water pump was leaking water, and door strap needed to be replaced due to being opened & closing hard. Taking vehicle to dealer to correct major problems.
1994 Chrysler New Yorker body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 19 of 19, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Door seal defect prevented opening of door, indirectly causing safety hazard, since my child was repeatedly forced to exit car on drivers side into oncoming traffic. Several technical service bulletins over several years have referred to this problem but dealer refused to replace defective door seal without charge. I believe that a door stuck shut is indeed a safety hazard and should be investigated as such. No other cars I have owned have ever had this problem, even at older ages. This design and materials defect is an indirect safety hazard but should be still considered a legitimate one nonetheless. I paid $300 to have the pasadena chrysler dealer fix this problem and believe that chrysler should have paid for it. Thank you for your attention. Beatrice hirano, my correct zip code is 91770-no way to modify the data without erasing the comments. You should fix that on your site.
While driving vehicle into the garage. Before reaching garage, front structure frame, supporting the transmission & wheels, had snapped. This caused the transmission to drop some & the wheels to fall off.
Hood support does not lock in place when hood is open due to design, resulting in unexpected collapsing of hood when opened.
Trunk lid will not stay up in place due to failure of corner springs.
Hood strut/cylinder mechanism which is suppose to hold hood in open/upright position failed.
