1998 CHRYSLER CONCORDE

I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH DAIMLER-CHRYSLER REGARDING THE LONGEVITY OF THEIR AUTOMOBILES. THISWAS THE SECOND VEHICLE THAT FAILED BETWEEN 100,000 AND 110,000 WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE AND UPKEEP. I HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE HEADLIGHTS, DOOR SEALS, THE AUTOMATIC SEATS AND NOW THE ENGINE. I TOOK THE CAR TO CHRYSLER DEALER, AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT MANAGER TOLD ME I HAD A BAD ROD AND THE ENGINE WAS VIRTUALLY SHOT AND WASN'T WORTH FIXING. HE SAID HE WAS ASHAMED TO SAY THE 2.7 ENGINES

Mileage: 107,000

THERE WAS NO INSTRUCTION TO CHECK/INSPECT BATTERY CABLES THAT WERE "BURIED" BEHIND R/F WHEEL FENDER WELL AND BELOW ENGINE. WHEN INSPECTED, THEY WERE SO CORRODED, THAT BOTH HAD TO BE REPLACED AT SIGNIFICANT LABOR EXPENSE WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN NEGATED BY NORMAL PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTION PROCEDURES. *NM
