TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHRYSLER SEBRING. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK. AS A RESULT, THE REAR PASSENGER WHO WAS EATING BEGAN TO CHOKE. NO MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE INTAKE MANIFOLD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,000.

WAS REVERSING OUT OF PARKING SPACE AND ENGINE STALLED. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. HAVE PREVIOUSLY BEEN DRIVING ON THE ROAD AT 35 MPH AND THE ENGINE HAS STALLED AND THE VEHICLE HAD TO CRUISE TO A SHOULDER FOR SAFETY, NEEDED TO SHUT OFF THE CAR AND RESTART. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED 2011 I HAD OWNED THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS I WAS GOING APPROX 60MPH ON A HIGHWAY AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF, THE CAR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS FINE BUT THE ENGINE CUT OFF. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE SITUATION AND IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE. LAST WEEK THE DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY BECAUSE THEY WERE CERTAIN THIS WAS BEING CAUSED BY THE BATTERY BUT IT IS NOT! LEFT THE CAR WITH DEALER AGAIN AS I HAVE A LIFETIME MAINTENANCE PLAN BUT IF THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THEY WONT FIX - RIGHT NOW THIS VEHICLE IS A HAZARD AND DANGER TO DRIVE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHRYSLER SEBRING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS NORMAL AFTER RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE A FAILURE. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

MY WAS MAKING A LOUD KNOCKING SOUNDS WHILE INCREASING SPEED, THEN SOUND WOULD GO AWAY. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP AN THEY STATED I DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR. JUNE 2011, MY CAR STARTED STALLING WHILE AT STOP LIGHT, NOW MY CAR IS WANTING TO STALL WHILE I'M DRIVING AROUND 50MPH. DASH LIGHTS ALSO FLICKER ON AND OFF. CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP STATES THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR SINCE IT'S NOT GIVING THEM CODES BUT RECOMMEND I REPLACE THE ENGINE. I'VE BEEN READING REVIEWS OF THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR COMPANY AND THERE CARS. HOW ARE THEY NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THESE MOTORS PEOPLE ARE HAVING TO REPLACE, I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS AN NOT GET AWAY WITH IT. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 CHRYSLER SEBRING TOURING. I BOUGHT IT USED IN JUNE 2010. STARTING IN SEP 2010 IT STARTED HAVING ISSUES, (I.E., ENGINE SHUT OFF AT LOW SPEED OR WHEN GAS TANK WAS AT 1/4 TANK, ENGINE WOULD ACT AS IF WAS GOING TO STALL WHEN SITTING AT A STOP SIGN/LIGHT THEN WOULD LURCH FORWARD SUDDENLY, AND BRAKE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON). I HAD THE O2 SENSORS REPLACED, ENGINE LIGHT WENT OUT FOR A COUPLE WEEKS AND CAME BACK ON. MECHANIC THEN CHANGED WIRING HARNESS. THIS TIME LIGHT WAS OUT FOR ABOUT A MONTH OR 2 BUT NOW WILL NOT TURN OFF EVEN THOUGH THE MECHANIC COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH EITHER THE SENSORS OR THE WIRING HARNESS. NOW THEY SUGGEST REPLACING THE ENGINE BRAIN WHICH AT THIS TIME IS FINANCIALLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME. I TOOK THE CAR TO A CHRYSLER DEALER SHOP WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAM ON AND I TOLD THE GUY ABOUT ALL THE ISSUES. HE PULLED UP THE HISTORY AND INFORMED ME THE CAR'S FORMER OWNER HAD SAME SHUT OFF ISSUES AT 16K MILES AND HAD A NEW ENGINE INSTALLED AT 20K MILES. CAR IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED WITH NEW ENGINE BEING PUT IN. I'VE ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE BRAKES REPLACED AFTER OWNING THE CAR LESS THAN A YEAR. I'M AFRAID THE CAR SHUTTING OFF ON ME IS GOING TO GET ME KILLED AS I'VE JUST NEARLY MISSED GETTING INTO 2 ACCIDENTS WHEN THE ENGINE HAS SHUT OFF ON ME. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHRYSLER SEBRING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL INTERMITTENTLY WHEN DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS OR WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP. ONCE RESTARTED, THE VEHICLE WOULD PERFORM AS NORMAL. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING A SERVICE APPOINTMENT FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 69,000 AND THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,500.

MY SEBRING STALLS WHEN I COME TO A STOP OR AM TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE CAR HAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS AND IS OBVIOUSLY VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. THE CAR ADDITIONALLY LUNGES AT LOW SPEEDS OR WHEN I ACCELERATE. THE SEATBELT LIGHT ON THE DASH GOES ON AND OFF SPORADICALLY. I HAVE DETERMINED THROUGH PERSONAL INVESTIGATION THE WIRE CONNECTION FOR THE SEATBELT LIGHT IS UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT AND IT DOESN'T ALWAYS MAKE A GOOD CONNECTION. WHEN THE CONNECTOR IS TOUCHED THE LIGHT WILL GO OFF AND ON SO THAT TELLS ME THAT THE CONNECTOR HAS A SHORT AND IS FAULTY. A PLASTIC PART IN THE GEAR SHIFT HAS BROKEN AND MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SHIFT WITHOUT MANIPULATION WITH A SCREW DRIVER, AND THERE IS A LOUD CLICKING SOUND THAT COMES OUT OF THE AIR CONDITION VENT/DUCT WHEN THE AC IS TURNED ON. I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES THROUGH THE YEARS AND THIS IS THE FIRST CAR THAT I HAVE PURCHASED THAT I AM ACTUALLY SCARED FOR MY FAMILY AND I TO DRIVE ANYWHERE. I WILL NEVER AGAIN PURCHASE A CHRYSLER, BUT NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THE ABOVE BUT BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT GAINED MY TRUST. THIS COMPANY SHOULD TRY A NEW CAMPAIGN OF TRYING TO GAIN THE TRUST OF THE CONSUMER, AND THEY COULD START BY ACCEPTING THE FACT THAT THEY HAVE MANY FAULTY VEHICLES THAT NEED TO BE RECALLED AND REPAIRED, THIS IS NOT ONLY GOOD SOUND ADVICE THIS WOULD BE GOOD BUSINESS PRACTICE. *TR

SINCE WE'VE OWNED THE CAR ITS STALLS OUT A FEW TIMES A WEEK AND MORE LIKELY WHEN ITS RAINING, WHENEVER U GO TO STOP OR SIT IT STALLS OUT, THE WORST WAS WE WERE AT A YELLOW LIGHT AND THE CAR STALLED IN THE INTERSECTION,I'VE BEEN READING OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS NO CLUE HOW TO FIX THE ISSUE. *TR
