Four problems related to engine cooling system have been reported for the 2004 Chrysler Sebring. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The contact owns a 2004 chrylser Sebring. The contact stated while driving 25 mph the warning light illuminated indicating the vehicle was over heating. The vehicle was driven to a mechanic who replaced a heating element. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The manufacturer was contacted and gave her the NHTSA number to file a complaint but offered no other assistance. The failure mileage was 86,700.
I had a problem with my thermostat overheating in 2007. The car was only a little over two years old. I purchased the car brand new in 2004 and started having problems with it two years later. Then the engine had a tapping noise in it and the car started going down hill after that point.
The contact stated transmission failed after owning the car for one year. She called the dealer and the manufacturer ,and because she did not have a warranty, no one will do anything about it. The cooling system malfunctioned shortly after she bought the car. Then, the following year, the engine went out. The labor will be $2,000 and the parts will cost $5,000. 00. When she bought the car it had 28,838 miles on it. Currently, it has 51,488 miles on it.
I have a 2004 Sebring with an intermittent problem with engine surging, dying, reving up while driving at slow speeds. The dealer has tried several fixes without solving the problem, they can't duplicate the concern so they say there is no problem. I have found 19 complaints on this website that share the same concern. If you have one of these problem cars, lets compare notes. Jjjgrumps@cox. Net.
