Two problems related to transmission gear slipping have been reported for the 1999 Chrysler Sebring. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Back in December of 2005 my Sebring stranded me on the side of the road on a Sunday. I had trouble with the car almost since the day I bought it and from September of 2005 to December 2005 I had already invested over 3,000 dollars into it. The car wouldn't move in reverse or forward. I managed to get the car to the dealer and with only 57,000 miles on it was informed I needed a new transmission. A new transmission for my car is a 4000 dollar job that they only guarantee for 3 years or 36 thousand miles. Well here I am at 97 thousand miles and the transmission again slipping pouring out fluid everywhere. Chrysler tells me to bring the car back, but the trans is no longer covered and I am still paying off the first bill. These cars are known to have transmission problems and needing new transmissions in them. A transmission should last you at least at the minimum of 60 thousand miles, most other vehicles guarantee the transmission for 75 thousand miles! does Chrysler not because your lucky if it lasts the 30 they guarantee it for and they know it? is there anything I can do about this? I do know one thing I will not by a Chrysler again.
Transmission was slipping. After inspection dealer replaced several parts within transmission. 6,000 miles later, problem reoccurred. Also, while driving and applying accelerator pedal vehicle hesitated before taking off. Gears do not engage until reaching 3rd or 4th gear. Please provide any further information.
