is chrysler bent on destroying itself?

Question 1
is chrysler bent on destroying itself?...  they discontinued chrysler pacifica and then they discontinued chrysler aspen. i liked both these vehicles. Yet they continue making pt cruiser which is crap. Who will now buy such cars?

Answers
1)   uh - the last cruiser will be made this summer

and I think BHO is helping Chrysler deteriorate nicely

I wear the symbol of a closed successful dealership

can't wait until November

God Bless America - tom4bucs

2)   How many of each, chrysler pacifica and chrysler aspen, do you plan to purchase?

You may like them but if Chrysler can't sell enough of them to make a profit they will be discontinued ... standard business practice.

You may not like the PT Cruiser, but since they are still being sold enough people are buying them for Chrysler to make a profit. - t-bar

3)   I agree with T, just because you like those cars dosnet mean you are the authority on the automotive marketing div of Chrysler, Yet I like the old model of the Fifth Ave but then again they dont make it any more.Why? Its called business and what sales it what stays on the show room floors. Pt be it crap or not it sales. - rick b

4)   pt cruiser is history,as far as destroying themselves no...Have,nt you seen the new Challenger?If not go to your local dragstrip to see one in action...I think they are trying to get back to their roots personally... - Johnny Rotten

Question 3
Convertible Question?...  Ok...I drive a 2008 Chrysler Sebring Convertible and I wanted to know if there's a way to put the top down with the keys instead of waiting till I'm in the car.

Also, is it safe to bring this convertible into an automatic car wash? I live in an apartment complex and there's no place to wash my car with a hose so I go to the gas station to save money as opposed to paying for hand car washes.

Thanks

Answers
1)   i would think there isnt if the button is on the inside.
and i personally dont think its safe it could rip the top from pressure because automatic car washes CAN not say it happens all the time but CAN even break the glass of sunroofs so thats why i say its not safe. and they have some car washes that just have stalls to where YOU can hand wash it instead of paying someone to do it. - palikane <3

2)   well some idiot decided if a theif cannot open the car from the outside, it would be safer hahaha dummy never thought that a soft top gets sliced with a knife I guess, sounds like a safety feature, as far as car washes go, find a brushless car wash or do the do it yourself thing, the convertible tops are durable when new, however after several years of sun they tend to be much less flexible, find out what is a good product to keep your top conditioned and so it does not dry out as fast, my friend always did his once a year with petroleum jelly, I dont know if that is a recommended procedure but it worked for him best of luck - dick car guy

3)   Hello. On some 2007-2010 Sebring Convertibles the key fob has an extra button that allows you to let the top down while outside the car. Check the owner's manual or with a dealer to see if yours has that option. Your Sebring is actually a metal folding top covered with canvas. It is probably safe to go throught a good car wash, the high pressure spray may force water past the rubber seals. I would look for an automatic brushless wash. - C-Tech

Question 4
is 300 chryler agood car?...  

Answers
1)   Depends on what ur lookin for! I'm told it IS, IF you get the larger engine. In midwest, I wasn't thrilled with its winter performance (traction). - jeffstorm2

2)   Not really. It is stylish, but unreliable and the plastics and interior quality is altogether cheap. Lots of rattles and squeaks are noticible. The engines have a lot of power but the car is too heavy for it to go fast. For the price buy a nice upscale car like a Acura TL, BMW 325i or a Mercedes-Benz C300. All of these cost around 31,000 and a nice Chrysler 300 Limited costs well over 35,000 dollars. Don't know if this choice is even a question. - Fred

3)   the 300 is a good car especially with all wheel drive. the 3.5 is a strong engine but the 5.7 and 6.1 have very sick v8 rumbles to them also reliability on them from my experience has been better than average... do not get an acura Tl they are pure garbage... - Nick

Question 5
Plymouth voyager makes pinging noise when accelerating sometimes?...  My mothers car makes a pinging noise when it accelerates after at a stop or when you try to accelerate quickly. It also rumbles. Could this just be the type of fuel we put in to clean out the old gas? It's been sitting in the yard for awhile. Or is it the throttle body or drive shaft hitting something?
Also it needs to have the o-rings replaced and some more inspecting done with the fuel rails.
I realize it is a popping noise

Answers
1)   Fill it with the highest octane gas you can get, and put in a bottle of Octane booster ! After about 2 tanks-full, the pinging should stop. Sounds like the engine is worn out ! Options: Replace engine. Overhaul old engine. Trade car in on a better one. - Sweetdaddy Rex

2)   What year, what engine size and how many miles?
As far as the pinging noise, run brand name fuel like Chevron, dosnt matter what octane, and when was your last tune up? - rick b
