1 Rear Suspension Coil Springs problem

Failure Date: 07/15/2008

Rear top strut brackets are made of aluminum and have disintegrated. This allows strut to shift outward resulting in coil spring rubbing on inside of rear tire. I am waiting on the replacement bracket, but dealer tells me there are 10,000 on back order! this is apparently a big problem with the top rear strut brackets on Sebring convertibles and sedans. Should have been recalled long before brackets desintegrate.
