DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR MADE A LOT OF NOISE WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING. DEALERS MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT BOTTOM HINGE BROKE OFF THE DOOR, AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.*AK CONSUMER THOUGHT THERE WAS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE DOOR AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. WITH A REPAIR BILL OF OVER $2000.00 DOLLARS, THE CONSUMER FELT CHRYSLER SHOULD'VE ACCEPTED RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DOOR. THE CONSUMER HAS OWNED A '49 FORD CONVERTIBLE, '65 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE, '86 PONTIAC CONVERTIBLE AND '89 CHRYSLER CONVERTIBLE BEFORE THIS CONVERTIBLE IN QUESTION. IN ADDITION, SHE NOTED THAT HAVING TO REPLACED AN ENTIRE DOOR WAS SOMETHING SHE DIDN'T THINK WOULD HAPPEN IN HER WILDEST DREAMS. *PH *NLM

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR HINGE HAS FAILED. DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. SINCE DOOR HAS "FALLED" AND IS NOT ALIGNED, THE OPENING ACTION HAS CRUMPLED THE FRONT QUARTERPANEL, PAINT IS NOW FLAWED. NOW A REPAINT AND BODY WORK IS NEEDED. HAVE NOTICED OTHER LEBARONS WITH THIS SAME TELL-TALE DAMAGE; THIS IS EVIDENTLY A DESIGN DEFECT. I UNDERSTAND THAT JEEP PRODUCTS SUFFER FROM THIS FLAW ALSO.
