CarComplaints.com Notes: The Chrysler Crossfire has a nasty habit of having the back window fall out. While there are reports of this happening to every model year (2004-08), the 2005 has it worst. Naturally this problem tends to happen beyond the standard 3 year / 36,000 mile warranty leaving owners to pick up the tab along with the shattered pieces of glass.

I own a 2005 Crossfire with 23300 miles. My ignition key began to "stick" when starting the car. It stuck about 2 weeks ago but I was able to start the care after 15 minutes of trying. Yesterday the ignition stuck and I was not able to start the car. I had the car towed to a dealer in san jose ca. The service writer told me he had another Crossfire in for service for the exact same problem.
