I purchased this car used with 28,400 miles on it from a dealer and had no problems at all for my first 1000 miles. I loved the car! however, then began the locked up ignition switch problem. At first, it was minor, I only had to try turning the key a dozen times before it would start, but that got a little worse every day. Then today, 6 months later, it took about 500 attempts and 20 minutes before it started. Now I need a mechanic and except to spend upwards of a $1000. I've probably had 25 different cars in my lifetime and never experienced anything close to this. Doesn't Chrysler recognize this is their manufacturing defect? haven't they read the Crossfire forum? I'm not the only one this has happened to. It is a common problem with this model and there should be a recall!.

Ignition switch failuer. Vehicle is now inoperable. Appears to be a jammed pin from steering column to ignition switch. It has been a reoccuring problem for about 6 months until it failed altogether. From the number of posts regarding this malfunction it appears a defective component as the compaints are for cars with very low mileage.
