Other Fuel System Pump Problems of Chrysler Sebring

Takata recall. I am having several issues with the whole braking system, as it is very difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of having no brakes. I have no type of brakes at all. When taken off parking, even with foot on brake, car will begin to move. This seems to be very common in these cars. The fuel pump was also replaced as it was letting less power go through. This happens as the car sits in parking, as well as, when driving. Also, the mechanic that looked at the car said that the pump needed to be replaced due to possible fire hazards. The lights flicker on and off by themselves, sometimes radio works, sometimes, lights get stuck on.

We bought this car used in 2010 with 69,000. It was great for a minute and then. . . Hoses, water pump, tensioners, a lot of tensioners, drive chain, sensor for some timing issue, thermostat, fuel pump, a bolt that sheared off the oil pan. Check engine light was on, with the coded for gas cap. No matter how many gas caps (5). It leaked oil from different places. Get one seal replaced , it would leak from somewhere else. Towed at least 6 times. Last time it was 100 degrees, it started missing, smoking. It ended up being the battery, but I was way too paranoid to drive this car any more. Too much money and stress. Not sure I ever want to own another Chrysler. I traded it in and I am sorry for the next person that owns it. These issues started at approximately 75,000. Traded in at 132,000.

After a few days of the windows not operating properly and the car hesitating at times during acceleration, it would not start after being parked for an hour. The vehicle was towed and it was diagnosed as the tipm was not working and that it had been supplying continuous power to the fuel pump and the wires were burned! this certainly sounds like a fire hazard. This repair cost over $1000 with $677. 50 being for parts. I see that jeeps have been recalled and there are other similar complaints about the tipm for vehicles. Why is this not a recall item?.

The fuel pump went on my car and when I brought it to the repair shop they stated that the wiring and connectors on it had burned up, which caused a hole to be burned in the fuel pump line.

I also had to purchase a new harness for the fuel pump since that was all screwed up as well.

I purchased the vehicle listed above in 2011 at city auto plaza while under warranty. The vehicle served my purpose as it was for work and now school only fuel efficient. About 6 or 7 months ago I began to experience an intermittent problem with vehicle it would crank but not start. I would have the vehicle towed to my local mechanic and not faulty codes were discovered. This happened about three or four times until frustrated I parked the vehicle around the first of February 2013 and used my other vehicle for school. The other day I decided to have the vehicle looked at by another local dealership near my home not the Chrysler dealership were purchased my dealing with the dealership folks are not positive or beneficial to me. The mechanic at buddy rays auto care in canon city checked the vehicle and traced the problem to a connection wiring system that was attached to the fuel pump. From their explanation the vehicle was in danger of catching fire if this problem persisted. I contacted my local dealership in an attempt to report this matter and they have not assisted telling me instead that the car had to be in their shop. Because of the danger posed by this problem I have had the vehicle repaired at a cost of 765. 00 dollars to replace the fuel pump, and wiring connectors plus labor. My concern for this car having less than 100,000 miles in my opinion should not have face this type of malfunction in the fuel and electrical system.

I had been experiencing stalling problems and after ruling out other potential causes, I discovered that the electrical plug connecting on top of the fuel pump was shorted out causing a large hole burned into the sealed plastic top of the pump, when the connection was pulled from it contacts I discovered that it was saturated with fuel. I contacted a mechanic and he stated that this was caused by the fuel pump drawing to many amps therefore causing the small connectors to melt down because of the heat, he advised that this has happened in several Sebrings as well as Dodge caliber models, at this time Chrysler has no recall and the only way to fix this issue is to purchase and install a new fuel pump at a price of nearly 700. 00 dollars. The mechanic stated that in time the fuel would have ignited due to the open electrical circuit.

Fuel pump conector melted though at the gas station after a fill up. The car started but imediately stopped. Failed to start after that. After a tow the rear seat was removed and the fuel pump conector removed. The conector when removed still contained the pin that should have been molded into the fuel pump. Fuel rushed out of the conector, felt very lucky it was gas and not fumes. If the tank had not be full a fire would have been inevable based on the melted black plastic on the fuel pump.
