Read complaints for CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE ROADSTER (2006)
This was a auto accident involving a chrysler crossfire.the cas was hit from behind and forced into a bridge concret railing on the drivers side the passenage airbag deployed but the drivers did not.
I was driving down highway and smell fumes after about 1 mile pulled over and opened my hood and the car burst into flames from under hood called 911 and fire department came and put out fire and car was a total loss.
The glass rear window to the convertible became disengaged on three sides and started flapping inside the car.took it to the dealer who told me this happens all the time and it cannot be fixed.a new top with a factory installed glass must be purchased and installed.chrysler and the dealer refuse to except any responsibility, and want $2800 for repair.it appears that this problem has happened routinely with this vehicle and no recall has been ordered.if i drive the car the window will eventually disengage completely and possibly become a missile on the highway. It appears the glue that holds the glass to the canvas top is defective and will not hold. I would welcome contact from chrysler with some assistance in the repair/replacement cost.

While my crossfire was parked, the rear windshield became detached from the convertibletopof the vehicle.
Back window in my 2005 crossfire came out.
Adhesive holding rear window in place began to separate from convertible top. Other crossfire owners have reported total failure. This is a significant safety issue if/when the rear window completely separates and detaches from the vehicle and poses a hazard to others i.e., pedestrian, motorcycle riders, etc. All the tops were produced by the same manufacturer (karmann) although chrysler is only willing to replace certain 2005 models based on the state they were originally sold. This makes no sense, chrysler and the nhtsa should recall all tops produced and replace them with a top with the rear window attached with some type of improved adhesive so the risk to others is eliminated.
Rear window is coming apart from the top. Glue joint is failing, window falling out for no reason that i can see. Chrysler does not want to own the problem, in all of the years, 2004 thru 2008 for the crossfire conv. This is a problem withthe crossfire conv.
Rear glass fell off top while driving. Completely separated. Only 55,000 miles on car and has been garage kept.
The rear glass window on my convertible top became detached from the surrounding material.apparently the glue holding the window on failed.i pulled over and secured it before it flew off and potentially hit another car or pedestrian.this is a previously know problem with this model for the 2004 and 2005 model years. Chrysler has issued a recall for cars with this problem in certain southern states of which i live in one texas. I contacted chrysler today and they indicated my area was covered but not my model year.i have seennumerous complaints online about this occurring in other 2006 models. This could potentially be an extreme hazard to other autos and pedestrians.
Rear back glass falling apart from convertible top while parked in garage
At 28,000 miles i noticed the back window is coming loose.three sides completely separated.went to an upholsterer who advised the entire top needs replacing.manufacturer defect causes the fabric to shrink in warm temperatures pushing out back window.it has been re-glued.they did a fine job and advised it would not hold and they were right, it is now flopping around with only one side holding it in place.this is dangerous.the 2005 was recalled for this same problem.same problem, same car, same manufacturing defect.it is more than time.
While driving my car with the top up my rear window became detached.i took the car into the dealership and they informed me that even though the 2005 crossfire roadster was covered for the same problem they were not covering the 2006.i contacted chrysler directly in july of 2014 they told me the same thing. I then had to make a temporary repair for $ 150 and in september 2014 had to replace the top for $ 2,457.62 at a shop recommended by the chrysler dealership.so i am out of pocket $ 2,607.i contacted chrysler again last week 5 23 2015 and they replied that since my vehicle was not built in 2005 they were still not covering it. This is a very dangerous problem experienced by numerous drivers.if this window were to come out while driving it could seriously injure or kill a pedestrian or other driver. Chrysler has covered the 2005 for this problem but not later models. You will see over 20 complaints on the safecar.gov site from other drivers with the same complaint same model and year.there are numerous complaints all over the web about the same problem.i guess chrysler and the government wants to wait until people are killed before acting.
Back glass in convertible top falling out
I received a laceration on my left hand index finger while grasping the driver side chrome covered door handle.it appears as though the metallic chrome covering has a seam on the inside of the handle which becomes razor sharp.i have used a layer of clear packing tape over the seam to keep from repeating this incident and will do the passenger side as a preemptive measure.

Rear window fell off of convertible top while driving. Chrysler says that while this has happened to this model in the past they don't cover this in the warranty. There needs to be a recall for this problem!

Rear window fell out of 2006 chrysler convertible.chrysler says it is not covered by warranty.by searching a solution to repair found several other owners whom this has happened to.
The rear glass window has fallen off from the convertible top posing a safety issue. This is a known issue with this car as chrysler recalled 2005s for the same issue but not the 2006. I have found online that i am not the only one with this issue.

At 70 mph driving on the highway, the rear window separated from the convertible top.scared me to death and not knowing what happened i pushed the brake pedal to stop and almost got rear ended by the car behind me.after a short online research i found the service bulletin tsb 23-035-11 that extends the warranty on the convertible tops to 10 years/100,000 miles to some states mostly southern.however, after contacting chrysler and talking to [xxx] id [xxx] i was told that there was nothing that chrysler would do about it because the bulletin refers to 2005 models.i told her to escalate the complaint and later i've got a call from a [xxx] pretending she was a supervisor and told me that she never heard of any rear windows separating from the cloth convertible top. I explained to her that this is a factory defect and there are hundreds if not thousands of people with the same issue, complaining all over the internet about it, but she refused to do anything about it. After suggesting to her to look up the bulletin no tsb 23-035-11 she said there is no such thing. This is a serious issue and chrysler has to do something about it before someone dies as a result of these windows separating from the convertible top.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Rear glass in convertible top has separated from the fabric. Vehicle has less than 30,000 miles and is garage kept.vehicle is not abused and top has only been retracted a total of approximately 15 times so it can not even be attributed to "normal wear and tear".this seems to me to be a manufacturing defect.
While driving the car with the top up the rear window fell loose from failed adhesive.chrysler has made repairs to 2005 models with the same failure and refused to fix 2006.same design same part same defect.
Overnight the rear window has detached from the convertible top causing a safety issue.some 2005 models have been recalled for the same issue, but not 2006 modes.i find online that others have had and are currently experiencing the same issues.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 95,000 and the current mileage was 116,000.
This 2006 crossfire roadster is garage kept. The car was parked, when the glass separated on three sides from the cloth convertible top. Failure of the rear window glass appears to be due to lack of attachment, other than adhesive glue.the cloth convertible top is in good condition.this poses a significant safety hazard to the public, considering the vehicle is rated at speeds in excess of 150 mph. It appears that chrysler has recalled some 2005 models which have the same type convertible tops and glass windows, made by karmann. As the safety issues continue i would hope that chrysler would recall all of these defective parts before the public is seriously injured or killed.i await an urgent response from chrysler to fix this hazardous problem me. Please contact me with your best efforts to make this right and keep everyone safe.2-13-18disappointed driver in east tennessee

Back window in my 2005 crossfire came out.
Rear window has detached as common with the 2005 models.
The rear window on my 2006 crossfire came unglued and fell out. Have talked with chrysler and this is a major concern on the 2005 crossfires and chrysler has extended theconvertible top warranty to 10 year/100,000 miles. The 2006 models are not covered but still suffer the same problem. The convertible tops for all years of crossfires are the same.my concern is that the top blew out traveling at 40 mph and struck a street sign, what if it struck a car or pedestrian and injured, maimed or killed another person. There is a major design a flaw with the rear window to canvas top glue and chrysler should be held accountable and offer to fix or replace all convertible tops on the crossfires.
I was driving on the freeway with my driver and passenger side windows down when i heard a loud clapping noise coming from the 3rd window (convertible window).the window glue has begun unsticking and the upholstery and glass were coming apart.if not for immediate corrective actions the window could have flown away and into other cars behind me.
