I RECENTLY GOT PULLED OVER BECAUSE MY HORN KEEPS GOING OF UNCONTROLLABLY! I HAD TO TAKE THE FUSE OUT AND I'VE BEEN PULLED OVER TWICE BECAUSE THE HORN GOES OFF AND DISTRACTS DRIVERS UNINTENTIONALLY. THEY GET MAD AND CALL THE COPS.. THEN ONCE THIS FUSE IS PULLED THE GAS METER GOES CRAZY AND DUMB. IT SAID ONCE WE HAD HALF TANK AND WE RAN OUT AS SOON AS WE PULLED OUT THE DRIVEWAY! THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD!! THIS NEED TO BE RECALLED!! *TR

JUST AS EVERYONE ELSE IS COMPLAINING ABOUT MY HORN HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN AND GOES OFF ON ITS OWN AND LASTS FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. IT IS EMBARRASSING AND DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE REMAINDER OF TIME I HAVE NO HORN AT ALL. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES WHEN I DESPERATELY NEEDED TO HONK MY HORN TO PROTECT MY SAFETY. I HAVE BEEN LUCKY AND UNINJURED THIS FAR. AS IS WELL KNOWN, TO FIX THE HORN I HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY. MY ESTIMATE WAS ABOUT $800 WHICH I SIMPLY CANNOT AFFORD. I TOO THINK CHRYSLER SHOULD OWN ITS RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS COMMON ISSUE AND COVER THE COSTS OF REPAIRS.. IT IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD AND WHOSE STUPID IDEA WAS TO CONNECT THE HORN TO THE AIR BAG ANYWAY? DUH! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER SEBRING TOURING. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH SHE HAD DIFFICULTY STEERING. THE STEERING COLUMN ALSO TURNED UPSIDE DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY AT FIRST, BUT THEN BECAME PROGRESSIVELY WORST OVER A PERIOD OF TIME. ALTHOUGH SHE EXPERIENCED AN IDENTICAL FAILURE, HER VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER WAS EXCLUDED FROM RECALL NUMBER 04V579000 (STEERING:LINKAGES:KNUCKLE:SPINDLE:ARM). THE "AIR BAG" WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 117,000.

THIS COMPLAINT IS ON BEHALF OF MY FATHER. ROBERT MULCAHY SR. HE OWNS A 2005 CHRYSLER SEBRING (TOURING) AUTO. I DON'T HAVE THE VIN NUMBER, BUT COULD GET IT. HE WAS JUST INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT THAT HAD HIM IMPACTING ANOTHER VEHICLE WITH THE FRONT OF HIS CAR AT OR AROUND 35-40 MPH. WE BOTH FIND IT INCREDIBLE THAT NEITHER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A NORMAL OPERATION OF SAFETY EQUIPMENT? THIS ACCIDENT HAPPENED IN OAK LAWN, IL., ON THE 9TH OF AUGUST, 2007. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHRYSLER SEBRING THAT I PURCHASED USED. AROUND THE END OF MARCH OF THIS YEAR THE HORN STARTED BLOWING INTERMITTENTLY. I TOOK IT TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY FOUND NOTHING. ON APRIL 8, 2007 MY HORN STARTED GOING OFF AGAIN. THIS CONTINUED FOR THAT ENTIRE WEEK THE HORN WOULD BLOW EVEN DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT DISTURBING MYSELF AND MY NEIGHBORS. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD THE HORN PAD AND AIRBAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR $730. AFTER LETTING MY CAR SIT AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR OVER A WEEK I HAD TO CALL CHRYSLER MYSELF TO FIND OUT THAT THE PART WAS BACKORDERED. HAD I NOT CALLED, I NEVER WOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED. DUE TO SUCH A LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE I TOOK MY CAR BACK. I EMAILED CHRYSLER AND TOLD THEM I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A DEFECTIVE HORN AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. THEIR RESPONSE WAS OF NO HELP AT ALL. I AM ALSO GETTING THE BRAKES DONE FREQUENTLY, AND NOW MY DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW IS STUCK IT WILL NOT ROLL UP. I HAVE GONE ONTO THE CHRYSLER WEBSITE AND ENTERED MY VIN NUMBER FOR A RECALL SEARCH BUT THEY FIND NOTHING. I STILL FEEL THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. A TWO YEAR OLD CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS MANY ISSUES.
