I have a Chrysler 2005 Pt Cruiser. It has been the shop four times now for the same thing. On Nov. 5, 2005 the brakes failed, the car acted like it was stuck in gear. It went to the shop by wrecker. I got the car back on Nov 9, 2005 no problem was found with the car, was told it runs beautiful. On Nov. 30, 2005 going home stopping in traffic the brakes failed again, almost hit a truck in front of me. It is right not setting at a Chrysler dealership and they called me this morning and said the car is running fine and no problem was found. This car is very unsafe. I have rode around for a week with a CO-pilot in it and nothing show up on that. I have lost over 100 miles per tank in gas mileage. No Chrysler dealer can seem to find what is wrong with this car. What can I do.
