2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING Complaints

MY BRAKE LIGHTS GO ON FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING THE NORMAL SPEED LIMIT. IT WILL GO OFF AFTER I TURN OFF THE VEHICLE BUT THEN AGAIN APPEAR AT DIFFERENT TIMES THE DEALER HAS SAID NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE FLUIDS NOR BRAKES AND CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHY THE BRAKE LIGHT KEEPS APPEARING. *TR

SHIFT INTERLOCK SWITCH FAILURE DISABLED CAR AFTER PUTTING IT IN PARK. CAR WAS BLOCKING A DRIVEWAY, AND INTERIOR HAD TO BE DISASSEMBLED IN ORDER TO MANUALLY ACTUATE SHIFT INTERLOCK AND GET THE CAR OUT OF PARK. CHRYSLER REFUSED TO REPAIR IT UNTIL I CALLED CORPORATE. CHRYSLER TOOK A FULL WEEK TO REPAIR, CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS RUDE, UNWILLING. CASE MANAGER WAS CHANTEL, REF# [XXX] , PHONE # 1-800-247-9753. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I PURCHASED A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING ON MAY 28, 2010. ON THAT DAY AFTER TEST DRIVE I SPOKE WITH SALESMAN AND FINANCE MANAGER ABOUT THE BRAKES AND WAS INSURED THAT ANY PROBLEMS TO BRING BACK WITHIN 2 WEEKS. I ALSO WAS TOLD THAT THE SQUEAKING WOULD SUBSIDE WITHIN 2 WEEK TIME. I HAVE RETURNED CAR TO DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW AND EACH TIME WAS TOLD NO PROBLEMS AND THEY DID NOT HEAR ANY NOISE. I'VE HAD TO PUMP MY BRAKES TO STOP AND THERE IS A GRIND NOISE WHEN APPLYING PRESSURE TO BRAKES. I HAVE SINCE REPLACED THE PADS AND WAS TOLD THE ROTORS WERE BAD ALSO. IS IT GOING TO TAKE SOMEONE HAVING AN ACCIDENT OR POSSIBLE DEATH IN ORDER FOR ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN? OR WILL IT TAKE GOING PUBLIC WITH THE MEDIA? I WOULD HOPE THAT ACTIONS WOULD TAKE PLACE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEMS. PLEASE DON'T IGNORE THESE COMPLAINTS. *TR

HELLO I HAVE A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING AND IT CONSTANTLY HAS BRAKE PROBLEMS. I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A DEALERSHIP IN DEC OF 2009. I HAVE HAD TO PUT BRAKES ON 3 TIMES SINCE THEN AND I DON'T GO LONG DISTANCE OR DRIVE LONG. I HAVE HAD FACTORY BRAKES PUT ON FROM THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP. THE BRAKES ALWAYS MAKE SQUEAKING NOISE ALL THE TIME. I HAVE TALKED TO ALOT OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE CHRYSLERS AND THEY ALL SAID THE THEY HAVE BRAKE PROBLEMS. I THINK THE CAR NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED OR RECALLED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ALONG THE FREEWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. I WAS UNABLE TO STOP. I ENDED UP IN A DITCH AND CRASHING INTO SOME TREES AND I LOST THREE OF MY FINGERS. I WAS DRIVING A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING. I NEED ANY INFORMATION CONCERNING ANY RECALLS OR DEFECTS REGARDING THIS VEHICLE. THANK YOU. *TR

2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING PINK PLASTIC LEVER BROKE INSIDE SHIFTER CAUSING CAR TO STAY IN PARK, UNABLE TO SHIFT GEARS. *TR

VEHICLE WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT AFTER OPERATION. THE NEXT MORNING THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE PUT INTO GEAR. HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER. A PART OF THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTER MECHANISM HAD BROKEN, AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. *TR

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CONNECTION IS PLASTIC AND CRACKED. ONCE THIS PIECE CRACKS, THE GEAR SHIFT WILL NOT ENGAGE. I PARKED MY CAR, AND THE NEXT TIME I TRIED TO LEAVE, THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT ENGAGE. THE PART HAS TO BE REPLACED. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, IT APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR PART. *TR
