Seat Belt problem #1

Driver side seat belt mechanism has a sensor inside that is loose and my concern is will this have an impact on the airbags, it also beeps the entire time it is hooked. The beeping or sensor remains to beep while stationary, in motion, on a city street and highway, turning, braking etc.

Seat Belt problem #2

Seatbelt light on dash keeps chiming as if I don't have my seat belt on. This chimes and light comes on randomly while in motion. Or parked.

When I turn the steering wheel the steering wheel shakes really bad until I bring the steering back into regular position. The seat belt sign goes off continually after I'm buckled up, car engine shuts off while car is idling at a red light, car jumps while sitting at a red light.

Seat Belt problem #5

The contact owns a 2008 Chrysler Sebring convertible. When the seat belt was buckled, the warning light remained illuminated and the engine failed while driving 10 mph. The vehicle was taken in for diagnostic testing. The mechanic stated that the vehicle could not be diagnosed because the battery continued to drain. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 97,000.

Seat Belt problem #6

Firstly found the driver's seat belt beeps while driving with the seat belt on; one week ago, stopped by the police at night, saying all the rear lights didn't function, including the stop lights, turn signals; a self checking found all the light bulbs are good, but the front left turn signal doesn't work, both front left and rear right lights are on for a long time after shutting off engine and light switch. Yesterday I took it to olathe Chrysler shop/dealer to check up my car. They found both the multi function switch and the totally integrated power module should be replaced. Otherwise the car may catch a fire or lead to accidents. This is 2008 Chrysler Sebring convertible. As far as I know no accident has happened to it. I am sure this model has hidden safety issues. Because it has the same problem like the newer models of Chrysler Sebring, Dodge, etc. Which have recalls. I don't hope accidents happen to me or others.
