I'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES OF MY 2000 SEBRING SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED IT FROM STAR CHRYSLER IN GLENDALE CA. IT ONLY HAD 14,800 MILES ON IT. I'M THE SECOND OWNER. I CAN'T REALLY HIT MY BRAKES AND THEY WEAR OUT REALLY FAST. CHRYSLER DID NOTHING ABOUT THIS. THESE BRAKES ARE DEFECTIVE, UNSAFE AND POORLY DESIGNED. I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO REPLACE THEM. IT'S VERY FRUSTRATING. I HAVE TO PUT MY CAR IN LOW GEAR TO GO DOWN HILLS AND OFF RAMPS SO THE BRAKES DON'T WEAR OUT. ALSO, MY SENDING UNIT DISABLED AT 84,000 MILES. I NOW HAVE TO COUNT THE GALLONS OF GAS AND TRACK THE MILEAGE SO I DON'T RUN OUT OF GAS. VERY DANGEROUS. CHRYSLER AGAIN DID NOTHING. THIS IS A COMPUTER RELATED AND SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED AT 84,000 MILES. MY DISTRIBUTOR FAILED LAST WEEK AT 107,000. THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD ME THE ONLY WAY THEY COULD GIVE ME ASSISTANCE IS IF I TOWED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT WAS A TOTAL LIE JUST TO GET ME IN THERE TO SPEND $. THEY WANTED $1500. CHRYSLER NOTIFIED ME THE NEXT DAY TO TELL ME I WASN'T GETTING ANY ASSISTANCE DUE TO BEING OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS COST ME 2 UNNECESSARY TOWS FROM AAA. I HAD TO TOW IT AGAIN TO ANOTHER MECHANIC WHICH USED UP MY LAST TOW WITH AAA. I HAD TO TOW IT ALSO WHEN MY GAS GAUGE DISABLED. CHRYSLER IS VERY UNETHICAL TO IT'S CONSUMERS AND FAILED MISERABLY IN THE QUALITY OF THEIR VEHICLES. *NM

FUEL PUMP SHORTED OUT. AFTER THE FUEL PUMP WAS REMOVED FROM THE GAS TANK, IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE WIRE HARNESS WAS MELTED AT THE WIRE CONNECTOR INSIDE THE TANK. THERE WAS ALSO SOME EXPOSED WIRES ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE FUEL PUMP AT THAT SAME WIRE CONNECTOR. NO WORK HAS EVER BEEN PERFORMED IN THIS AREA. *JB
