Owner reports
Selected complaints filed with NHTSA by 1995 Chrysler Concorde owners, lightly cleaned up (personal details are redacted by NHTSA).
In a "panic stop " situation the ABS controller modulated and reduced very significantly the braking effort when the driver slammed on the brakes on dry pavement. While braking the driver also maneuvered into the k rail to reduce speed and almost avoided a collision. The air bags did not deploy and were not needed as the final crash was at low speed.
Consumer stated the brake pads fell off vehicle and caused the consumer to crash. The dealer was notified. The brake failure was traced to the inner pads on each of the front wheels. Each brake pad that fell off was located near where each of the front wheels would be while the vehicle was parked in the driveway. The consumer was unable to stop the vehicle which crashed into his house. The brake failure was due to the rivets coming out of the countersinks holding the pads into place.
Total brake failure-----dual brake system failure ------- due to corrosion of metal brake lines leading to the rear of vehicle in the area of the gas tank. Both hydraulic brake lines developed a leak at the same time due to a bracket (dis-similar metals) trapped moisture against the brake lines. Both brake lines were rusted from the outside inward at the same the same location. Original owner, not located near water, never underwater, normal driving use. Replace brake lines. Parts available.
Braking system malfunctioned due to brake lining being 'too thin" which caused brakes to become spongy, and caused extended stopping distance which May have resulted in a crash. Also a fire started in the motor. Please provide further information.
Problem seems to start with the transmission clunking then eventually you will start to hear a popping noise in your front end, coming from the tie rod. Thought this was a suspension problem but took to dealer the first time and they replaced my brakes and serviced transmission. Cluncking noise still existed when you let off the gas and the slightly accellerated. Turns out the tie rod, transmission mount and axle were to blame. Can't tell you about the axle as they told me they would replace but did not show up on repair. I know that there seems to be serious problem with the drive train and suspension in the car. As for the dip stick, the heat created by the engine is cooking the plastic in the colored dipstick to the point it just falls apart. …
We are now about to put in our 3rd 95 cirrus transmission and 2nd 95 Concorde transmission and feel that Chrysler should pay for the cost of repairs. I have shelled out nearly $12,000 between the two cars in the last 6 years for repeated failures in engines, water pumps, steering assembly failures, transmissions, brake systems, radios, air conditioners, fuel rails, alternators and computer PCM's to name a few. By far the worst quality cars and highest cost of ownership of any cars I have owned in the last 30 years. Something major goes wrong with these cars every few months.
Intermittent ABS brake system failure, complete loss of braking. Tt stalling occurs when engine is cold and warm, engine noisy. Harsh downshift. Odor comes from vents when ac is on. Sporadic climate control. ABS light illuminated, dealer replaced ABS module.
Consumer was traveling about 25mph, she applied brakes to veer over to another lane, and vehicle started slowing down. When she applied the brakes, car stopped. Vehicle wouldn't turn over at all. Vehicle was towed to repair shop.
Vehicles ABS braking system intermittently pedal becomes spongy with no warning.caused an accident. Tt
The car has ABS and they have increased stoooing distances. Please describe.
