2008 Chrysler Sebring

THIS CAR HAS A FAULTY TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM). THIS CAUSED SEVERAL PROBLEMS INCLUDING: THE CAR STALLING SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 50 MPH ON A STRAIGHT ROAD, THE HORN GOING OFF INTERMITTENTLY AND UNCONTROLLABLY BOTH WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WHILE IT WAS MOVING, AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT WOULD NOT CLEAR. I REPLACED THE FAULTY TIPM AT MY OWN EXPENSE AND IT RESOLVED ALL THESE PROBLEMS. CHRYSLER HAS ISSUED RECALLS FOR TIPMS, BUT THEY HAVE NEVER RECALLED THE 2008 SEBRING. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL, FAULTY TIPM OUT OF THE CHRYSLER THAT I CAN SEND FOR TESTING AND VERIFICATION.

MY FATHER OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING LIMITED. AROUND THE YEAR 2014 AND 70,000 MILES, THE CAR STARTED TO ACT LIKE IT WAS POSSESSED. RADIO, HAZARD LIGHTS, INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD TURN ON ALL BY THEMSELVES. MY FATHER TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. THEY TOLD HIM THAT THE RADIO STAYED AWAKE WHILE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND THAT THIS WAS CAUSING A DRAW ON THE BATTERY. THEY TOLD HIM HE COULD REPLACE THE RADIO FOR $900 OR JUST PULL THE FUSE. THIS WOULD CURE THE PROBLEM. HOWEVER, THE BATTERY WAS TRASH AND IT COST HIM OVER $300 TO REPLACE. THE KNEW BATTERY DIDN'T LAST A YEAR. THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY B/C IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, NOW THEY SAID, THAT AFTER THE TEST PERFORMED A DRAW TEST, THERE WAS AN INTERMITTENT DRAW OF 1 AMP OR MORE AT TIMES. THEY COULDN'T ISOLATE THE CIRCUIT AND THAT IT SEEMED TO BE SOMETHING INTERNAL TO TIPM CAUSING ISSUE. THEY SAID THEY COULD REPLACE FOR $765 BUT WOULD HAVE TO RECHECK, AND COULDN'T GUARANTEE THAT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY RECOMMEND THAT HE SHOULD JUST DRIVE THE CAR TO KEEP THE BATTERY CHARGED. I WOULD LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS CLASS ACTION VS. CHRYSLER.

I SEE THAT JEEPS HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND THERE ARE OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TIPM FOR VEHICLES. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL ITEM?

MY 2008 CHYRSLER SEABRING ENGINE STOP ON HIGHWAY AND STEERING WHEEL LOCK. THE REASON WHY IS A CHYRSLER DEFECTED PART (TIPM) WHICH IS TOTAL INTERGRATED POWER MODULE.
