Driving on i70 in indiana my rpm’s began to accelerate and I hit my breaks and once I got to 30 mph my breaks went out. I looked online and one after another of complaints for exactly this has been posted in rooms. It was towed to our mechanic and hopefully he can figure out why.

I was on my way to work. All the warning light appeared on my dash. Then all the warning light, radio, speedometer gage and all head light and tail lights went out. I was driving in the dark. My engine bogged down no power. I was barley moving. I replaced the battery no difference. I replaced the alternator worked for 3 minutes and then the car was back to the same as before. I contacted a nearby mechanic facility they told me that it was most definitely the fuse panel under the hood. That's its not a recall but a lawsuit replacement. I notified the manufacturer and they told me my VIN number was not under recall. I'm confused on what to do not. I'm in no way able to purchase a new vehicle at this time. Nor spend hundreds or thousands in repairs. Please help.

Random stalling upon deceleration with no warning lights after stalling (as if the engine thinks it is still running). Occurs at low speed. Sometimes the engine will surge when the rpm drops off instead of stalling. I have almost run into other cars when the surging happens. The stalling occurs randomly and is becoming more frequent. A scan of the internet shows many others with same issue. No cel.

Purchased may 15th. And now car sits in my apartment parking lot as a roadblock for all tenants since may 27th. 2008sebring started fine. Drove 2 miles roundtrip, vehicle ride was rough upon turning into residence thankfully I was not on the street in traffic when the car decided to stop ,the windows were down I still have not been able to get them rolled up . Lights instrument panel lights went haywire flashing,ding chime sound continuous. The backdash illuminate light has never worked. Wont accept jump from cables,has power in areas under hood, charged to 12v on charger able to get code (dtc-u1403 implausible fuel level signal. Just like the recall of the wiring issue it's similar. The week this happened the tire pressure indicator in the lower left corner of dash was lit up and the cruise control light would come on but when engaged it would not drive at the limit set only reduce is speed the stereo cd changer didn't work I thought it was just because it was old the cigarette lighter which I used for my power source the light on that device would flicker in and out showing it wasn't getting a good connection the key would get stuck in the ignition or do a continuous storage where you it would not spring back as it should you'd have to turn it off and then try to restart it the battery in the fob work just fine before all of this took place now the battery is dead in the fob as well. It won't hold a charge I want to know how it's going to get fixed and with whose money?? $95 for diagnostic. While covering windows later that night,I was able to see a dim red light where the tire pressure indicator was lit up at the fuses are fine the battery is 6 months old but it is constantly draining I it won't stay charged I can't get it out of gear it to put it in neutral to move it anywhere. Main purpose was to get me to my doctor appointments now I can't even do that& I haven't been able to do that. . I think this recall has revisited. Its unsafe.

New battery, plugs and wires, new alternator. It will run for 5 seconds after jumping, then lights pop on and it dies. When jumping the negative also throws a spark while trying to start.

The contact owns a 2004 Chrysler Sebring. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power with smoke coming from underneath the hood. Smoke then entered the cabin of the vehicle. No warning light was illuminated. Additionally, the odometer was inoperable. The contact restarted the vehicle; however, the failure recurred. The contact stated that her daughter had asthma; however, the contact and her two children did not receive medical attention. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact to tow the vehicle to their location. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure.

Engine frequently stalls while driving. I've had my car shut off while I'm driving many times, the steering wheel and brakes lock up and it makes it hard to get off the street to safety. This happens a lot. It is very dangerous and scary. I get anxiety everytime I drive because I'm scared of it happening again. My car once turned off in the middle of a busy intersection while trying to turn. It came on after about 45 seconds but it was terrifying. Battery often dies (just replaced it). Horn would go off randomly without stopping for a long time. I had to disconnect the horn (on both sides) because it would keep randomly going off with no way to stop it. Cruise control stopped working one day. Sometimes it comes up when I press cruise control but it turns off when I try setting a speed. Drivers window broke inside, I think something snapped inside the door. I've had it replaced 3 times but it keeps breaking. A/c makes an awful grinding noise sometimes, but it goes away if I turn the a/c off then back on. Also with the a/c, a door or something inside the dash will get stuck every so often and it makes a loud clicking like noise but it goes away after about 20 seconds (something to do with the actuator?). Brake light will come on sometimes when I stop. It goes away shortly after I start driving again. Abs light has been on my dash for a few months now. Most of these issues have been happening for over a year now. Most of this shows up under a recall from 2008, electrical system: wiring. It doesn't show up under my VIN number but I'm having the same exact problems.

In February 2021 my car wouldn’t stop, tried to give it a jump and it still wouldn’t start. Replaced the battery and it started working again. In April 2021 my engine light came on. I got a diagnostic and the error code read: p2016 intake manifold runner position sensor/switch circuit low bank 1. I didn’t get it fixed. Shortly after, I began hearing a faint crackling noise and noticed when I would drive on turn pikes my a red brake symbol would briefly pop up on my dash board and then go away. In may 2021 my horn stopped working and front right turn signal light stopped working. I tried to get a new one installed it wouldn’t work. I was told it could be an electrical issue. In July 2021 my right low beam head light stopped working. I tried to get a new bulb installed and it still wouldn’t work. At this time I was told the same thing, that it seems like there may be an electrical issue. This month, November 2021, a few days ago on Monday November 1st, I began noticing an acceleration issue in the morning. I would press the accelerator and it wouldn’t pick up until a few seconds later, it was like a delay. Later that day while I was driving on the free way a red flash symbol with lines between it began flashing on my car and my car wouldn’t drive over 20 mph. I pulled over. Shortly after I turned my car back on and it began driving semi normal and I was able to get home. I tried out my car the next day and in the morning the same thing happened again. The red flash symbol with 2 lines on the side of it began flashing on my dashboard and my car wouldn’t go over 20 mph. I’m not sure what the issue is but when I looked up what the red flashing symbol, I noticed a few others who had a similar experience with their 2008 Chrysler Sebring which made me want to look up whether there was a recall and I found out there was but when I searched whether my car was eligible through my VIN number it said there was none unrepaired.

At any given moment loss of power will occur and motor will shut off. Anytime on the freeway or parked. Occasionally at random intervals car will crank but not turn over until after repeated attempts to start it will turn over appropriately.

My son was driving forward up a hill. While driving the car started rolling backwards while in drive gear. Then while the vehicle decided to roll backwards in drive gear he was unable to stop. Since my son was unable to stop he put the car in park the vehicle still continue to roll backwards. As a result my son jumped out of the vehicle and the vehicle rolled down the hill and hit a tree and boulders. Had the vehicle towed to the dealership and they found nothing wrong. However a witness seen what was happening to my son in disbelief. This vehicle is very unsafe for anyone to drive,.

Jumped to mining chain at 159,000 miles I don't understand how or why .

My car cranks and starts, then dies about 2 seconds later. After several tries, it usually starts. However, I have had it into a Chrysler dealer twice without them finding anything wrong. It usually decides to run just fine while in the shop. It will often go for a few months, then start repeating this scenario. This has been on-going for about a year.

I took the vehicle after purchase to the shop to look over and seller agreed that he would cover the cost for "sensor" issue as he stated! the car needs a camshaft and due to the age of the vehicle the mechanic stated if that part is replaced it will possibly need a transmission as well as a new engine. Therefore the repairs would exceed the value of the vehicle or not work at all and waste all that money. Car had issues starting from day 1 too.

Ecm failure, electronic throttle failure and the catalytic converter having issuses.

Throttle body went bad which was very dangerous as my son was driving car and it suddenly lost power and my son was nearly hit by another car. The plastic gears in this part should be recalled and fixed before there is a large lawsuit against Dodge/Chrysler for a poorly designed part that should not be put into vehicles!.

3 seperate but related events. My horn began honking at random times, eventually I could not turn it off while in my parking garage at work. Ended up removing battery connection to stop the honking. When I arrived home I disconnected the horns. My wipers randomly do not work. I've had to rely on rainx. Sometimes they work and other times I cant turn them off. They sometimes stop in the middle of the window. Last issue was complete loss of power while driving at 70mph. Luckily I was able to pull over. Strange thing was it started right back up. But 10 miles later the same thing happened. Based on these 3 things happening within the last month I think it is part of the tipm module. Many complaints and this item is part of a class action law suit and a voluntary recall for other Chrysler vehicle in the same year range as my vehicle.

I heard a lot of peoples having problems with the thermostat on a Chrysler Sebring 2007 going bad and I was wanting y�all to put it on a recall because a lot of people having problems with their thermostats on these models of cars and if you need to contact me me on this matter my phone number is (xxxx) redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

The car died on the road while I was making the turn and when I went out to see what happened the car left a trail of clearish fluid. Keep in mind that my car has only 73,000 miles on it.

Etc light came on. Replaced throttle body and performed idle relearn procedure. Light still comes on intermittently making it unsafe to drive.

Takata recall I bought this car on 4/1/2019. On 4/11/2019 my car completely broke down on the freeway. There was a messaging saying hot oil. The engine stopped working and it said problems with tpm system. I had to get my car towed to the car mechanic because it wouldn't start at all.

Dashboard was dim with airbag indicator light always on when purchased. The problems started with dashboard lights going in and out and the wipers not working properly around November of last year. Was told fuses needed to be changed, so they were. Same issue. Then 3 months ago taillight bulb went out, changed it and the taillights have not worked since. Was told it has to be taken to dealer authorized shop for electrical box repair after taking car to three different shops who all said they could not find the issue. Today battery looking light came on and before I could turn around to go back home the car immediately shut off and would not start without a jump. The lightning bolt in parentheses came up and car accelerated without my foot being on gas but would not go above 30 mph once I made it home it turned off and refuses to start 6 hrs later. The battery light, lightning bolt symbol and airbag lights all show on dash and will not go off.

Had fuel pump replaced a couple months ago. Then at gas station wouldnt start at all, had a tow truck take it to a mechanic and that mechanic tapped on gas tank and it started and said fuel pump needs to be replace so I called the dealer where I bought it because the new fuel pump had a warranty. They said they found nothing wrong with fuel pump but found problem wirh #2 selinoid and they replaced it. Two weeks later ths car was driving fine but when I got home and turned off the car for a couple hours it started right up. So I turned it off and on a couple times then the engine surged then hestitated then died. It did it twice after starting it then turning itvon about 5 times trying to find out what could be wrong with it. I bought the car in February 2017. I had both strut mounts fixed, fuel pump, an air valve from coolant do not remember exact name, #2 selinoid now this problem. I still owe on this car and its not reliable and scared to drive it and wreck.

This car is a deathtrap , and accelerates at high speeds at any given time without warning !!!! could die or wind up killing someone . Looks like it has been known for years and nothing as come of it! just bought the car, had it shipped to my state & I cannot even drive it! and cannot sell it to anyone as its dangerous. Noone can find a fix for it. Chrysler played dumb and over the years claims they never haerd about this major problem , yet its online . . Many people have been thru hell. Maybe even a death . . . I need help. . Or answers.

I take good care of my car it's my only transportation to take my new born back and forth to our appointments I bring my car in every 4 moths to make sure my car is still safe for my child. My engine knocks it's really loud 3 different people told me 3 different things so I brought it into a Chrysler shop and they told me that I should just buy a new car that this happens to a lot of the 2002 Chrysler Sebrings. So I asked them what's wrong and they told me I would need a new engine.
