I have heard that the convertible top header latches are prone to

the parts still available?
I called the shop that replaced the top last year, but they have no

A truly ugly box.  Saw my first advertisement for one tonight on TV, did a
google, and my first impression was correct.  UGLY!  Japanese box ugly.
BLEH!

My wife's 2005 PT/Conv started to slip and not engage in gear.  We
took it to the dealer and he said it was the transmission solenoid,
which was covered under the powertrain warranty.  I had a 2003
PT/Sedan and never had this problem.  Is this a weak spot in the car?

Does the 300C Hemi (not SRT) require premium or mid grade gas?
Thanks

Hi, On cold mornings sometimes my 2002 Dodge Intrepid starter will
grind the flywheel. The engine will give a cough that makes me think
that maybe the spark is advanced too much for a cold start. Is that
possible? The dealer has worked on it twice in less than a year and

Somebody please help me stop dissing my car. My battery isn't
recharging, I have changed the alternator & belt. Does this thing have
a bad voltage regulator or computer chip ? when I charge the battery up
& start it the check engine light doesn't come on until the battery

I'm getting a coolant leak near the front of the engine. It is not the
radiator. I suspect the water pump. What's the cost of repair if I take
it to a repair shop or a dealer?
One guy says the timing cover has to be removed to get at the leak and

I haven't been able to find anyone who can help me with this.  ..my clock
display on my 2001 PT (limited edition) goes out from time to time.  The

Does anyone know how to reset the overhead computer after you change
the oil?  It keeps telling me to "Perform Service", but all I really
need to do is reset the message for another 3000 miles.
Thanks.

Hi Guys. As above, my intermitant wipers don't work properly. Also when
I turn the wipers off they  stop where ever they are on the windshield.
They don't return to the bottom position. Any help appreciated. Thanks

I have a 2001 PTC, 5 speed, 61k miles, only owner.  No accidents or
hits. Extended warranty (4yr/50k) expired in Feb 2005.
In June 2005 my air bag light stayed on and chimed when starting.  Went
to a local dealer.  Diagnosed problem as bad harness.  Said that only

We own a 2001 T&C LXi with rear automatic temperature control.  Heat
does not come out of any of the  in the ceiling nor in the floor.  I'm
guessing that the problem lies somewhere between the tubes up front and
the door (?) that controls how much hot & cold air enter into the

Thanks for helping out here.
My daughter has a 1998 Chrysler Cirrus and the right rear brake is
dragging. I go for 4mile drive around town and get home and it is too
hot to touch. I lick my finger and touch brake drum and it sizzles - so

My 1991 LeBaron and I celebrated 16 years together and 90K miles on
October 2nd; it has been a good relationship, so far! Even the original
a-sick-o-four is shifting smooth!
Anyhow, I noticed back in the summer when idling in drive, and the AC

Now that the "Republipedo" party is washed up, watch for Congressional
pushes on ALL auto makers doing business in the US for alternative
