2008 Chrysler Sebring

CHRYSLER SEBRING 2008 HOWEVER, I AM HAVING PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT WHICH WILL COME ON SOMETIME AND NEVER GO OFF UNLESS YOU STOP THE CAR AND RESTART. WHEN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT IS ON YOU CANNOT BREAK TO STOP THE CAR, OR SPEED UP. IT MAKE YOU LOOSE CONTROL OF THE WHOLE CAR INCREASING THE POTENTIALITY OF ACCIDENT IF YOU WAS DRIVING AT ANY SPEED ABOVE 25 MPH. I WENT TO CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS, BUT THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE CAR OR COULD CAUSE THAT FAILURE, `AND HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO FIX IT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE POWER TRAIN. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED TO ME ALREADY MORE THAN 30 TIMES. *TR

WE HAVE A 08 CHRYSLER SEBRING IT WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO WE WERE TOLD IT WAS THE BATTERY CHARGED 75. FOR A DIAG FEE. THE CAR ITSELF DIES WHEN AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LITE IT WILL SUDDENLY REV UP THE MOTOR AND JUST TURN OFF. IT STARTED TO STALL AND NOT TURN ON THE BATTERY WAS HAVING TO BE CHARGED OVER AND OVER. FINALLY WE CHANGED THE STARTER AND BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY THAT WAS 2 MONTHS AGO.NOW IT IS DOING THE SAME THING THE BATTERY IS DYING WE HAVE JUST TAKEN IT IN TO GET RECHARGED JUST TO FIND OUT IF IT IS THE ALTERNATOR. THE RECALL THAT WAS DONE ON THE SEBRING FOR THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR DOES NOT INCLUDE OUR CAR. I DON'T SEE HOW THE SAME VEHICLE THE SAME YEAR IS DOING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS DOES NOT GET INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. *TR

CAB WIRES TO BATTERY CAUGHT ON FIRE WITH FAMILY RIDING IN VEHICLE PART WAS ORDER AND REPLACE TWO MONTHS LATER CAUSING THE ALTERNATOR GOING OUT TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CUTS OFF AND ON AND ENGINE LIGHT CUTS OFF AND ON DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY TOOK IT TO THE CHRYSLER DEALER TOLD THEM ABOUT THE FOUR RECALLS I FOUND ON THE CAR AND THE DEALER IS SAYING THE VIN NUMBER DOESN'T MATCH BUT MY CAR IS HAVE ALL THE DESCRIPTIONS OF ALL FOUR RECALLS. *TR

MY 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING WAS BROUGHT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR A WEEK TO HAVE MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY REPAIR BECAUSE IT IS 1/4 TANK OFF AND THE CAR RUN OUT OF GAS TWICE IN THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE IT IS STILL SHOWING A 1/4 TANK LEFT .THE LAST INCIDENT HAPPEN YESTERDAY 3/21/09 . THE CAR JUST STOP WHILE CRUISING AND THE FUEL GAGE STILL SHOW A 1/4 TANK LEFT. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND LUCKILY II DIDN'T GET INTO AN ACCIDENT AND LOOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR WHEN IT RUN OUT ODF GAS. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING IN AUGUST 2007, FROM DARCARS BRAND NEW, AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE CHRYSLER WAS AWARE OF THE RECALL 6MONTHS PRIOR AND MADE NO ATTEMPT TO INFORM ME. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP BEING SERVICED. I TOOK THE CAR IN BECAUSE SUDDENLY THE CAR BEGIN TO MAKE A HORRIBLE NOISE, THAT I DESCRIBED TO THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AS A NOISY FAN BELT, THAT WHINNIED WHILE DRIVING, BUT NOISIEST WHILE IN PARK, ODILIMG AT THE STOP LIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR IN AND THEY PRETENDED NOT TO HAVE A CLUE, AND BEGIN TO INQUIRE ABOUT OIL CHANGES AND OTHER SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE, I SHOWED THE WRITER AND MECHANIC MY MOST CURRENT MAINTENANCE RECEIPT PRINTOUT ALONG WITH THE PREVIOUS DATES, SO THEY BACKED AWAY FROM THE INDIRECT ACCUSATIONS THAT IT WAS POSSIBLY MY FAULT. THE POWER STEERING PUMP IS DEFECTED, THE PULLEY FROZE, AND THE ALTERNATOR. THE CAR HAS ONLY BEEN USED TO TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN TO AND FROM SCHOOL AND SOCIAL EVENTS, AND MY TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM WORK, GROCERY STORES AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. MY MILEAGE IS 31,418. THEY ARE BEHAVING AS IF THEY DON'T HAVE A CLUE, BUT AFTER LOOKING INTO SEVERAL RECALL LINKS, I AM APPALLED THAT THEY KNOWINGLY SOLD ME A LEMON AT REGULAR PRICE, WITH NO DISCOUNT. I HAVE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS. I ONLY RECEIVED ON RECALL NOTICE, BUT BEING THE DRIVER AND EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEMS, THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLS FOR RECALL ID 07V473000, AND RECALL DATED FOR APRIL 2, 2008 SEBRING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM;WIRING RECALL ID 35950. ALSO THE RECALL TITLED ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING;COOLING SYSTEM RADIATOR ID#55084. THE ALTERNATOR IS AN ELECTRICAL OPERATING PIECE, IT ALSO TIE INTO THE RECALL TITLED "TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR, BECAUSE ONE OF THE CONSEQUENCES INCLUDE STALLING, AND BATTERY CORROSION, AND STOPPING WITHOUT NOTICE, WHICH IS ALSO CAUSED BY A DEFECTED ALTERNATOR. I DRIVE TWO SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN, TWO GRANDCHILDREN, 1MONTH, AND 13MONTHS OLD. CHRYSLER PUT US ALL IN DANGER KNOWINGLY. BUT STILL TO DATE ACTS AS IF THEY DO NOT HAVE A CLUE. *TR

ON 01/30/09 MY 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING AND LOOSING POWER. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND THE DEALER REPLACE ONE SPARK PLUG AND IGNITION COIL. THEN FEW DAYS LATER ON 2/3/09 THE SAME ENGINE LIGHT MALFUNCTION INDICATOR CAME ON AGAIN AND THE CAR STARTED ROUGH AND VIBRATING, RETURN TO CAR DEALERS FOR A SECOND DIAGNOSTIC AND THE DEALER FOUND THAT THE CAR PCM WAS FAULTY. DEALER REPLACED DEFECTIVE PCM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD REV WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE BEHAVED AS IF IT WOULD ACCELERATE. IN ADDITION, THE ENGINE WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE IDLING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, BUT THEY COULD NEVER DUPLICATE THE FAILURE OR FIND CAUSE FOR CONCERN.
