ON THE ENGINE I HAD THE PULLEY ON THE TIMING BELT COME APART AND JUST LAST MONTH I HAD THE HEAD GASKET START TO LEAK FROM THE BACK. TIMING BELT 28,000 HEAD GASKET 37,500. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES THAT WHERE ON THE CAR. ALL BY 29,000 MILES--SOME EARLIER AND THEN LATER. THE BRAKES WERE REPLACES AT THE SAME TIME AS THE TIMING BELT PULLEY. I KNEW THEY NEEDED REPLACEMENT AND HAD AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THEM REPLACED WHEN THE TIMEING BELT WENT OUT. IT IS A 1996 BUT I ONLY HAVE 37,500 MILES.

PROBLEMS WITH MY 1996 CHRYSLER SEBRING. IT GOES THRO TONS OF OIL, I KEEP HAVING TO ADD OIL TO THE CAR, EVERYTHING HAS BEEN BREAKING ON IT. NOW IT PERIODICALLY STALLS OUT NON STOP. THERE IS ONLY 85K MILES ON THE CAR AND IT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS. I HAVE PUT IN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS INTO THIS CAR FOR REPAIRS. IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY BY CHRYSLER AND I TOOK IT IN FOR THE OIL ISSUE AND THEY SAID THEY SAW NO PROBLEM, THAT WARRANTY RAN OUT AND MY EXTENDED ONE KICKED IN AND THEY SAID IT HAD OIL LEAKS AND KEPT 'FIXING' THEM. ONCE THAT WARRANTY RAN OUT THEY CHANGED THEIR STORY TO 'THE ENGINE IS CONSUMING THE OIL, THAT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY'. MEANWHILE I AM LEFT WITH A HORRID CAR THAT WONT RUN. *PH

FUEL VALVE HAS FAILED WHICH UNABLES THE CONSUMER TO PUT FUEL INTO THE CAR. DEALER NOTIFIED. *AK

DEALERSHIP IS NOT PERFORMING RECALL OOV421002 FOR THE LOWER BALL JOINTS WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME.*AK
