I OWN A 2003 CHYRSLER THAT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN TWO TIMES TO ADDRESS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR NOT DRIVING SMOOTHLY. IT BEGUN BY ACTING AS THOUGH IT WAS STALLING ONLY IN REVERSE. IT THEN BECAME EVEN WHEN MOVING FORWARD AT LOW SPEEDS TO NOW WHEN ON THE FREEWAY AT 60MPH IT DOES THIS. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO FIRST TIME TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT PINPOINT THE PROBLEM TO KEEP DRIVING IT TILL IT GOT WORSE. WELL, IT DID. I TOOK IT BACK AGAIN AND THIS TIME THEY TOLD ME THAT IT JUST NEEDED A TUNE-UP AND A FUEL INJECTION CLEANER BUT COULDN'T BE CERTAIN WHETHER OR NOT THAT WOULD FIX MY TRUE PROBLEM. SO WHY AM I GOING TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD CORRECT MY PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD TWO PROBLEMS AND THAT I NEEDED THIS TUNEUP.WHEN I INQUIRED WHAT MY SECOND PROBLEM WAS HE STATED HE DIDN'T KNOW, BUT I HAD ONE. WELL, I HAD PREVIOUSLY ALREADY HAD A TUNE UP SO I KNEW THAT WAS NOT THE RESOLUTION. I HAD ANOTHER MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND HE COULDN'T PINPOINT MY PROBLEM EITHER.

CHRYSLER SEBRING 2003 car safety problem was reported on Aug 04, 2005.CHRYSLER SEBRING 2003, manufactured by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . I OWN A 2003 CHRYSLER SEBRING WITH 4 CYLINDER ENGINE,AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND CRUISE CONTROL. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED IN MARCH OF 2005 WITH ABOUT 29,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. IT CURRENTLY HAS 39,000 MILES. ON A TRIP THROUGH MARYLAND AND WEST VIRGINIA ON AUGUST 4TH,2005, I EXPERIENCED A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE. WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 65 MPH, I WAS TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE DOWN A 6 TO 8 % GRADE. THE CAR WOULD DOWN SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION AND ACCELERATE. WHEN THE SPEEDOMETER REACHED 75 MPH, I SHUT OFF THE CRUISE AND THE CAR WOULD UPSHIFT BACK TO HIGH GEAR AND WITH BRAKING I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE SPEED OF THE CAR. I WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THIS ACTION WITH THE CAR UNTIL I TRAVELED ON INTERSTATE ROADS WITH 3% GRADES OR LESS,THEN THE CRUISE WORKS FINE. I TOOK THE CAR TO NORTH EAST DODGE ,MAIN STREET,NORTH EAST,PA. 16428 ON AUGUST 8TH,2005 AND EXPLAINED THE CONCERNS ABOUT THE CRUISE CONTROL. AFTER CONFERRING WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATION,I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY STATED THAT I SHOULD HAVE READ THE OWNERS MANUAL WHICH( I AM PARAPHRASING HERE) STATES NOT TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL UNLESS IT IS A SUNNY,DRY DAY AND THE HIGHWAY IS FLAT. IN OTHER WORDS,CHRYSLER SAYS I SHOULD HAVE READ THE OWNERS MANUAL BEFORE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND IF I DON'T LIKE THE IDEA OF THE CAR GOING OUT OF CONTROL DOWN STEEP ROADS, THEN DON'T USE THE CRUISE CONTROL. BECAUSE CHRYSLER CORPORATION PUTS A DISCLAIMER IN THEIR OWNERS MANUAL ABOUT THEIR SELLING THE PUBLIC AN UNSAFE PRODUCT SHOULD NOT ABSOLVE THEM OF THE RESPONSIBILITY OF CORRECTING IT. *NM.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 38900 miles.

I HAVE A 2003 CHRYSLER SEBRING LX, I BOUGHT IT USED WITH 21,000 MILES IN MARCH OF 2004, NEARLY NEW RIGHT? SINCE THEN, I HAVE GONE THROUGH 2 SETS OF ROTORS AND PADS FOR THE FRONT, 1 SET OF TIRES, PASSENGER SIDE LOWER BALL JOINT, TOTALING OVER $700.00 FOR REPAIRS, THAT I PAID OUT OF MY POCKET. THE FAN KNOB INSIDE THE CAR THAT CONTROLS THE SPEED OF THE HEATER FAN LABELED 1-4, NOW ONLY WORKS ON 3 AND 4. NOW THE LOWER TIE- ROD END ON PASSENGER SIDE IS BAD OR MAKING A THUMPING NOISE. A NEARBY MECHANIC SAYS THAT IT IS DRY AND NEEDS LUBRICATION BUT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE DUE TO CHRYSLER NOT PUTTING GREASE FITTINGS ON ANY OF THE IMPORTANT AREAS! I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I FOUND IT WOULD COST $850.00 TO FIX. THERE MECHANICS SAY THAT THEY DON'T SEEM LOOSE AND NOTHING IS GOING TO FALL A PART, BUT JUST IN CASE, SINCE YOU CAN'T JUST REPLACE THE TIE-ROD END, YOU HAVE TO BUY THE WHOLE RACK AND PINION, SO THEY SUPPOSEDLY HAVE IT ON ORDER. THE DEALER SAYS IF IT HAS TO BE REPLACED AFTER THEY LOOK THE CAR OVER GOOD, THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A $50.00 DEDUCTIBLE AND THE WARRANTY WILL COVER THE REST. I BOUGHT THIS CAR SINCE I HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT DODGE/CHRYSLER VEHICLES ASSUMING IT WOULD BE A SAFE FAMILY CAR SINCE MY WIFE IS PREGNANT AND DUE IN NOVEMBER WHICH IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! I HAVE HAD THE CAR LESS THAN A YEAR AND A HALF AND HAVE SUNK MORE MONEY IN IT THEN MOST VEHICLES 5 YEARS OR OLDER.

THERE MECHANICS SAY THAT THEY DON'T SEEM LOOSE AND NOTHING IS GOING TO FALL A PART, BUT JUST IN CASE, SINCE YOU CAN'T JUST REPLACE THE TIE-ROD END, YOU HAVE TO BUY THE WHOLE RACK AND PINION, SO THEY SUPPOSEDLY HAVE IT ON ORDER. THE DEALER SAYS IF IT HAS TO BE REPLACED AFTER THEY LOOK THE CAR OVER GOOD, THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A $50.00 DEDUCTIBLE AND THE WARRANTY WILL COVER THE REST. I BOUGHT THIS CAR SINCE I HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT DODGE/CHRYSLER VEHICLES ASSUMING IT WOULD BE A SAFE FAMILY CAR SINCE MY WIFE IS PREGNANT AND DUE IN NOVEMBER WHICH IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! I HAVE HAD THE CAR LESS THAN A YEAR AND A HALF AND HAVE SUNK MORE MONEY IN IT THEN MOST VEHICLES 5 YEARS OR OLDER. I HAVE A LITTLE OVER 59,000 MILES ON IT WHICH WHEN I BOUGHT IT I GOT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY UP TO 75,000 MILES. AT THE RATE IT'S GOING, THE CAR WILL LUCKY TO MAKE IT THAT FAR. SAFETY IS MY MAIN CONCERN WHEN PURCHASING A VEHICLE, AND THIS CAR HAS PROVEN TO ME THAT IT IS A LEMON DUE TO THE FRONT END PROBLEMS AND IS A HAZARD TO MY FAMILY AND I. PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING BACK FROM YOU. *NM.Mileage was 59000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1C3EL46R83N.
