Two problems related to steering wheel have been reported for the 1998 Chrysler Sebring. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
On Jan 1999 I was going to work an my steering wheel locked and I could not steer the car so I lost control and hit an enbankment. I took the car in to be serviced and the said it was my fault because there was a wire underneith the car that caused the belt to come off but the wire was there due to me hitting the enbankment. Also inside the car under the steering the carpet is burned,and the car 's steering is not right iv'e taken it to be balanced and aligned and nothing seems to help. Also there is a recent recall. I would like previous damage to vehicle fixed. Due to the steering. I also don't know if it is safe tobe traveling in the vehicle.
Design of the steering wheel column is uncovered above the gas and brake pedal which caused floor mat the be stuck resulting in loss of steering ability.
