Back window fell out while driving down road, in my convertible Chrysler Crossfire 2005. Called Chrysler and was no help to me. Said there was no recall on the top. So I repaired myself and now the top leaks and did damage to the wiring harness. My auto insurance paid for the water damage but will not fix the top. My extend warranty will not cover the top either. I fill that Chrysler should man up and take care of this problem.

In mid 2009 I noticed that the rear window glass in my 2005 Chrysler Crossfire roadster was delaminating from the canvas apparently due to a poor adhesive bond. I was able to re-attach it myself after I was refused service by my local Chrysler dealer due to "adhesives and the soft top are not covered". He cited "environmental factors can not be controlled" and are excluded from warranty service. This car was purchased in georgia at a Chrysler dealership and is kept garaged. It is driven approximately 4500 miles per year, and is immaculate. The top is separating again and after contacting Chrysler customer care, I was told that mine is excluded from a recent "partial" recall for cars only manufactured on "certain production lines" in michigan. Or originally delivered to a few "hot" states. Mine was apparently delivered to michigan. Does this mean I can't drive it south past columbus, ohio? this is a bald faced lie. Every one of these cars were manufactured and assembled in osnabruck, germany, and shipped here. The window is about to fall out and will look very stylish in the grill of the car behind me. This is a safety issue and should be addressed as such. My car will sit until either Chrysler comes clean on an obvious manufacturing defect or I can scrape up enough to pay for it myself.

2005 Crossfire convertible, always garaged. Back window glass released from top. Warranty will nto cover even though dealership states known issue. If this had happened while driving could have caused serious injury. Replacement cost is $2200+ as all repair shops stated same diags. . . Cannot simply glue back in as will only last a few months at most. All shops also stated they see this on a continuous basis. There are literally hundreds of these complaints of this same issue on the web.

The contact owns a 2005 Chrysler Crossfire. The contact stated that the rear windshield became detached from the vehicle while driving 40 mph. She pulled the vehicle over and noticed that the window had shattered into pieces. She called the dealer and manufacturer, but no one had the parts available due to a back order. The contact believes that this is a manufacturer defect and a very serious issue. She further stated that a recall should be issued or the parts should be available. The current and failure mileages were 49,000.
