general problems of the 1997 Chrysler Sebring

The converible roof is unravelling at the seams, making it unsightly and dangerous. I had water in my foor in the back seats and an upholstery shop discover a defect in the manufacture of the body causing the leak. It has been successfully fixed. But the soft top roof to be replaced would cost $1250-. It is my observation that there are a lot of convertibles during the model years of 1997 (mine) and other years (1998- ?). I called Chrysler and they noted my complaint but haven't addressed the problem to my knowledge. I think this should be a recall as I see it on many converibles. What if one of these tops were to tear loose? that's my concern!!.

Consumer states after a hard rain the passenger side consumes water which could cause rust to the vehicle. Consumer also states there is no drainage to show where the water maybe coming from. Deaelr is not aware. Consumer feels this is dangerous as it could cause severe rust damage.

Vehicle interior floods during moderate to heavy rainfall. In light of the number of problems, the cost of repairs the consumer has incurred on what is apparently a design flaw on parts that have no mechanical wear, is unbearable. The consumer is now requesting reimbursement from Chrysler and need assistance in resolving matter safely and promptly.
