Bought this 05 cruiser from a snake oil salesman from a craigslist post of $2985.00 with who claimed it would last me a long time as long as I took it easy. Instantly dismissing the shaking that I felt in the steering wheel at approximately 30+ mph from the first test drive. Said oh that lil shimmy, it's no biggie I just drove it to ___ (city 1hr away) and it drove fine. Then the very last thing he showed me before I drove away in my newest craigslist investment was how the ignition would lock the key unless I jiggle thr gear shift (then it releases the key it like a normal ignition does when… Read complete

Hi everyone, I have a 2004 PT Cruiser 2.4 Turbo and after 2 weeks of usage, the Check engine light turned on. It kept working for a while but suddenly stalled. I tried to start it back but was not able; it seemed as though there was a fuel deficit, even though 3/4 of the tank were full.

Hi everyone, I have a PT Cruiser 2001 and it is really hard to start the vehicle in the mornings. The engine needs to be powered many times and the accelerator pressed hard until it finally starts. Sensors, spark plugs and even fuel pump have been changed but the starting in the mornings is still a huge trouble for me. Has somebody had this problem and can please tell me what to do? Thanks

2005 pt cruiser, our daughter ran over a concrete rock and punctured the oil pan. It was never driven after this happened because it wouldn't crank and she was not aware it damaged anything. It sat there where she parked it for a few days until we could get it towed home. It still had a bit of oil in it. So, we've since replaced the oil pan,oil, & gasket. Thinking that it was the only thing damaged and it would start right up, but it doesn't. It turns over, and sounds as if it is going to engage and start but doesn't. I'm wondering what else could be damaged underneath that could cause it to not start? Or maybe a hard enough jolt that could have jarred something a loose?
