Front Suspension Lower Control Arm problems of the 1996 Chrysler Sebring

Lower lateral arm broke on our 1996 Chrysler Sebring. Dealer and Chrysler have refused to fix the car under recall. This is the 3rd major failure and inconvenience of this part. The last failure was 8 moths ago. There is clearly a safety issue here as well as a mechanical defect.

On December 2000, the lower control arms of the suspension of my 1996 Chrysler Sebring were replaced. The replacement was due to noise and steering problems of the car. The lower control arms were then replaced due to the complaint and a recall on the lower control arms. On 26 January 2004, the lower control arm on the drivers side of the car failed as I drove in downtown atlanta. The failure caused the cv axle to dislodge from the engine and damage the braking system and body of the car. I the proceeded to contact Chrysler for an investigation. The case # is 120-241-89. The investigation was conducted 9 February 2004.

While driving lower control arm/ ball joint separated causing loss of vehicle control which resutled in the vehicle hiitting a embankment. Vehicle not included in recall number 97v201000 due to VIN. Please give any further details.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer for recall repair 99v-215 because the front end was making noise, the consumer is not satisfied with the recall because he had to pay for repairs. Nlm.

There's a horrible noise coming from front end, similar to recall on suspension lower control arm. Another dealer replaced the lateral arms and the problem was solved. The customer was satisfied by the dealer's performance.

While driving vehicle about 35 mph the front suspension/ lower control arm collapsed. Vehicle had to be towed. This was the second time it happened.

Had received recall notice in the mail (97v201000). Had contacted dealership for appointment. Went to the dealership & they refused to do the recall.

Lower control arm bushing fell out while vehicle is in motion, causing bottom strut pin to snap off.
