I bought a 1983 Chrysler New Yorker 5th Avenue. It has never run right (engine skips at highway speeds), the dealer and factory rep. can't fix it (9 tries including replacement of the fuel control computer and carburetor), customer service has been poor (the factory rep. never returned my phone calls), and Detroit has been totally unresponsive. I was finally forced to go to the Chrysler Customer Arbitration Board for resolution. Net.auto readers may remember this, as I have looked here for help before. Read net.consumers to see how the story ends (I promised to describe my Arbitration board experiences). This is, of course, neither a recommendation to buy or not buy the car (translation - cover thy legal gluteus maximus)
