2006 Chrysler Sebring

HORN OR ALARM RANDOMLY GOES OFF. IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP, IT DOES SO EVENTUALLY ON ITS OWN. THIS IS ON ENTRY TO THE CAR, WHETHER BY KEY, KEY FOB, OR EVEN OPENING TRUNK..AND WHEN DRIVING AT SPEED RANDOMLY. IS THIS NOT A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE? *TR DID A DEALER CHECK AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. NO RECALLS, NO PROBLEMS FROM CHRYSLER...HARD TO BELIEVE SINCE I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE THAT POINT TO A HORN PAD ASSEMBLY PROBLEM THAT COSTS $1000 TO FIX. THIS IS A LOW MILEAGE LOW USED CAR, I AM THE SECOND OWNER, THE FIRST BEING MY FATHER. NOT A LOT OF HORN BLOWING. TOOK IN AGAIN TO DEALER, CALLED CHRYSLER, NO INFO FROM EITHER. RETURNED TO THE DEALER WITH MECHANIC AND REPLICATED THE PROBLEM, AND HE FINALLY AGREED IT MIGHT BE THE HORN ASSEMBLY, AND REMOVED THE HORN FUSE. APPARENTLY THERE IS A FOIL THAT GETS WORN THROUGH CAUSING A SHORT ACTIVATING THE HORN, AND THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IS A REASSEMBLY. THIS IS NOT A FIX, THIS IS A FAULTY MANUFACTURING ISSUE (MATERIALS SKIMPING TO CUT CORNERS). THIS IS NOT A WAY TO BE A LONG TIME MANUFACTURER AND MAINTAIN THE QUALITY EXPECTED OF AMERICAN CARS. ITS AWFUL AND UNSAFE. THEY ALSO LED THE MECHANIC AROUND IN CIRCLES TESTING COMPUTERS AND ALL SORTS OF THINGS WHEN 5 MIN ON THE INTERNET DIRECTED ME TO THE PROBLEM AND AFTER A QUICK TEST PROVED TRUE. SUCH A WASTE OF TIME. *TR

COULD NOT USE MY HORN AND AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT. THE AIRBAG AND HORN DO NOT WORK BECAUSE THE FUSE HAD TO BE TAKEN OUT THE FUSE RUNS THESE FUNCTIONS. THE FUSE WAS TAKEN OUT BECAUSE THE HORN DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY WHICH ALSO MEANS THE AIRBAG HAS A FIFTY, FIFTY CHANCE OF WORKING WITH THE FUSE IN. BECAUSE NO INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN DONE ON THIS FUNCTION EVERYONE ON THE ROAD IS AT RISK. SAFETY IS AN ISSUE AND THIS NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL. STOP MAKING AMERICANS PAY FOR LEMONS!!! *TR

THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE NOT ONLY FOR THE DRIVER OF THE CAR THE OTHERS ON THE ROAD WITH THEM! I WAS JUST GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE HORN STARTING GOING OFF ALL BY ITSELF. FINALLY TOOK OUT THE FUSE. THE HORN JUST GOES OFF RANDOMLY. IT WENT OFF WHEN HITTING UNLOCK BUTTON ON REMOTE AND OR JUST DRIVING. THEN TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE SAID THAT THE HORN PAD ASSEMBLY WHICH WAS A DEALER ONLY PART HAD TO BE REPLACED SOME SENSOR OR SOMETHING. SO RIGHT NOW I HAVE JUST LEFT THE FUSE OUT, BECAUSE IT IS AN EXPENSIVE FIX. $1000.00. I AGREE WITH ALL OF THE OTHER PEOPLE THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BE FIXING THIS ISSUE. REMOVING THE FUSE HAS CAUSED THE AIR BAG FUNCTIONS TO BE UNKNOWN. REMOVING THE FUSE TO STOP THE HORN ALSO AFFECTS PART OF THE FUELING SYSTEM ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL (SAME FUSE). REMOVING THE FUSE HAS CAUSED US NOT TO BE ABLE TO USE OUR HORN INCASE SOMETHING RAN IN FRONT OF THE CAR OR TO ALARM OTHERS OF HARM. THE HORN IS A FUNCTION OF SAFETY AND WARNING. THIS IS STANDARD ON ALL CARS AS A PRECAUTION AND WARNING SYSTEM. THIS IS NOT A PART OF THE CAR THAT IS SPECIAL ORDERED, THESE COME STANDARD WITH ALL CARS. SO WHY IS CHRYSLER NOT PAYING FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE? YOUR COMPANY HAS BEEN RUN INTO THE GROUND WITH RECALLS AND SAFETY MEASURES NOT BEING TAKEN SERIOUSLY ENOUGH. TIME TO ACT ON THIS SITUATION; WITH OVER 70 COMPLAINTS THIS MUST NOT BE A WHIM. SAD PART IS THIS IS NOT THE ONLY ISSUE WITH THIS CAR THREE RECALLS ON IT AND THE DEALER SOLD THE CAR ANYWAY WITHOUT REPAIRING RECALLS. *TR

THE HORN GOES OFF BY ITSELF. WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED OR IT IS MOVING. THIS HAPPENS AT NIGHT AND IT DISTURBS MY NEIGHBORS. SOMETIMES IT STARTS BLOWING WHILE I'M DRIVING. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. ON THE CARCOMPLAINTS.COM WEBSITE. THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND A CUSTOMER WAS TOLD IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE AIRBAG. A MECHANIC DISABLED THE AIRBAG, WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. THERE ARE 38 COMPLAINTS ON THE WEBSITE. ANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEM LIKE THIS CAN BE VERY HAZARDOUS TO THE PASSENGERS INSIDE THE VEHICLE. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM! *TR

HORN GOES OFF FOR NO REASON UNTIL FUSE IS PULLED. NOW THAT FUSE IS PULLED I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH NO AIRBAGS. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 TIMES A WEEK UNTIL I NOW GO WITH THE FUSE OUT ALL THE TIME. NO SAFE DRIVING AROUND WITH OUT AIRBAGS!!!!! PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL ON WHATEVER IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE AND PUTTING THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AT RISK. (NUMBER OF PEOPLE BASED ON INTERNET FORUMS AND COMPLAINTS!) *TR
