Three problems related to tire have been reported for the 1999 Chrysler Sebring. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
So far three times the front tires have just come off the rim, outside wall collapes in. (tiresize: 215/17r70)( dot number: tire size: 215/17r70 ).
Michelin tires went flat on two occasions, the dealer stated both times that the consumer must have hit a curb hard, however the consumer had not and is requesting reimbursement for the replacement of two of the faulty tires.
I have had repeated problems with the tires. Due to poor construction I have been forced to repeatedly purchase new tires. My first incident occurred a year and a half after purchase of the vehicle. Within the 45 m. P. H. Area the tire exploded and ruined the aluminum rim completely. I immediately took the wheel and tire to a nearby hibdon tire center where they checked the tire and concluded it was faulty. They explained to me the tire's steel belt had shifted casuing it to tear out the side wall of the tire which caused it to "blowout. " now more recently, my original three tires have also shifted steel belts. Two of these three have began to reveal side wall tearing. I have looked for other brands of tires which may solve the problem , but since the tire size (p215-50-r17) is so rare, I have had no luck. The orignal tire sytle (goodyear eagle rs-a) is also quite expensive, but being the only correct sized tire I have no choice but to purchase the problem tires to replace all three original tires.
