The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Sebring. The contact started the ignition and the instrument panel cluster displayed a dim lighting and then suddenly failed to illuminate. The failure occurred sporadically and also when the vehicle was in operation. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who replaced the instrument panel cluster. The failure recurred after the repair. The vehicle had not been repaired for the second failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000.

The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Sebring. The contact stated that the instrument panel warning lights and all of the gauges continued to illuminate constantly. The manufacturer was notified of the failure who advised that there were no recalls for the vehicle and offered no further assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 54,000.

The illumination of the instrument panel cluster board has went out. It kept flickering on and off, but now it stays off. I can not drive the car at night because I can not see the speedometer.

Problem # 1 - started as intermittent / now constant. Speedometer intermittently "wacky". Earlier in Nov. 2008, exhibited a problem that I first saw two winters ago. In Dec 2006, had the same symptom - speedometer going wild. In the repair shop, the rep replaced inner & outer speed sensors based on codes he saw from computer. Problem not seen since 12/06 until recently. In early oct 2008, only about three brief instances. Now the wacky speedometer is frequent / constant. Going along at 55 mph, suddenly speedometer needle flips to 10 mph (presumably the car is still really traveling along at 55 mph). In fraction of a second the needle swings back up to 60 mph, then down to 20 mph, then up to 70 mph, then down again to 5 mph. . . I took the car in for service at a local garage. Garage tech replaced both inner & outer transmission sensors on 12/5/2008 -based on computer codes, and reset ?check engine? light. Since replacing both speed sensors the ?wild speedometer? problem still happens; swing of the needle is just a little less, engine light comes back on (constantly) after having speedometer swing wildly for a few minutes. Problem # 2 - possibly related (or not) - at lower speeds (5-30 mph), the car transmission seems to respond fine (other than the wild speedometer issue). I mean that is the car registers 1000-2000 rpm, sounds like engine is running well. Car seems to drive fine at higher speeds after driving for some time at 50-60 mph, then slowing to exit (down or up a ramp) when speed is slowed to around 20 mph, transmission seems to abruptly downshift to lower gear (small buck can be felt); then car seems to stay in low-gear. I can still drive the car but when the speed is around 30 mph, the rpm is over 3000, can hear the engine straining. I pull over, turn-off engine, sit a minute, restart car, it is ok once again to drive. It can go over 30 mph or higher and maintain around 2000 rpm (until speed is reduced to 20 mph (cycle continues).

The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Sebring. While stopped at a traffic light, the rpm's decreased to zero and the engine stalled. The gear was shifted into park and the vehicle was restarted. After it was restarted and the contact depressed the accelerator pedal, the vehicle hesitated for 15-20 seconds before accelerating. When it rains, the headlights and instrument panel lights would dim intermittently. The light switch was turned off and then back on. The dealer was unable to duplicate or repair the failures. The powertrain was unknown. The failure mileage was 16,000 and current mileage was 29,000. Updated 03-19-08 updated 03/19/08.

Problem with the speedometer, car is in driveway in park,the idle will go up a little , but the speedometer will go up to 80-100 km will sitting still. If you give the vehicle gas in park the speedometer will go to 240 km again while in park and not moving. I have had it the vehicle rescanned,but the issue did not go away. . I took it to the dealership where we purchased the car, and the put almost 200 km on the car and the problem never happened again. This happened more that enough times, but when it went into service to get checked out they could not solve or get the car to do the same problem. It was very frustrating ,and our concern was that when the warranty ran out and there was a serious problem there will be a costly bill. I am also concerned for my family's safety while my wife was driving the car.

: the contact stated upon starting the vehicle, the gauges oscillated back and forth rapidly before returning to normal. The dealership determined the instrument panel needed to be replaced. The repair was not made and the problem corrected itself. The consumer stated whenever he went to accelerate, the needle would not move. Updated 11/30/06.

None of the gauges work on the dash. Such as the odometer the gas gauge,the radio. I really don't know what led up to the failure. For this is a used car.

My trunk falls down with out any warning. Hurts when your head is under it. The fuel light keeps going off and on even when full. The back window came unglued, I was told that I have to purchase a new window and have it installed with a upholstery person, price quotes are 680-780 dollars nothing is wrong with the window seems like such a waste.
