Three problems related to battery have been reported for the 2004 Chrysler Sebring. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Purchased the 2004 Chrysler Sebring in November of 04. Have had an electrical issue since the purchase. While driving the dash board lights will flicker on and off, the radio will make a poping noise, and the car will stall out. Has down this numerous time while driving down the interstate. Dealership has replaced the battery, reformatted the main computer and still has not solved the problem.
While driving down the road, my radio would produce a loud popping noise and then the display would go blank. My odometer would begin blinking and the rest of the guages would go down. My car stalled and I had to restart it. The first time this happened, I took it to the dealership and they found nothing wrong. The second time, they replaced my battery. The third time, nothing wrong. The fourth time, they reformatted the computer in the car. The fifth time nothing found. Today was the sixth time and it is still at the dealership. I'm beginning to fear for my family's safety because it is stalling while driving. This has become extremely frustrating because they haven't been able to duplicate the problems at the dealership.
On 2/25/04 had electical problem dealership confirmed and said nothing to fix, on 3/13/04 driving on freeway car had no power all electrical system shut down now dealership replacing cluster & battery cause gauges not working but unable to detect what caused electrical system to shut down I fear for my life.
