Problem: 2008 Chrysler Sebring engine, transmission & electrical problems. I began financing in Nov 2013 from Toyota of riverside, 1yr and 3 months later on Feb 17, 2015 while I was exiting the freeway, my engine light came on, my car completely shutdown, I had no brakes, I was fearful and held onto the steering wheel coasted near an arco station. I was thankful I did not hit anyone or have an accident. I called aaa who towed me to Toyota of riverside. Joe agassi the service manager told me I needed to replace the timing belt and the engine for $1500. It took about 3 weeks for the engine to be repaired, my car was returned on March 12, 2015. However, I noticed when I received my car back the cruise control lever near the steering wheel was hanging loosely and was not attached. Weeks, later the electronic speed control light and the engine light came on along with problems shifting. I sent pictures of my engine light being on from my phone to joe agassi and leo varela and went to see joe agassi who told me the transmission need repair and it would cost $3000 to $4000. " I went to moss brothers riverside, oscar talamantes on 09/17/15 did a diagnostic. He told me there is an auto transmission shift lever recall and a spring hook retainer he can replace for free. He also replaced a stop lamp switch binds and and reprogrammed the pcm for $290. I picked up my car on 9/22/15 it continued to stall, returned it to moss brothers oscar said it may be a transmission problem before we can begin we will need $1690 up to $4480 to repair it. Ihad my car towed to manuel auto center, he replaced my left tie rods for $275 in the past. He completed a diagnostic, replaced solenoid package for $800. However, my driver side window would not roll down, electrical problems and negligence at his shop. He was willing to pay $275 to repair. My car is unsafe. Thank you ms melinda ancrum.

This is a recall item for models right around the same time as my Sebring was built, I have called chry but they will not take responsibility. The air bag light stays on!! my air bag clock spring failed and my air bag warning light illuminated. I'm told by the dealer that my air bag will now not work, and my cruise control & steering wheel horn . This is a serious safety issue & I need to get it repaired quickly but at a cost of over $220, I can not afford . This should be paid for by daimler Chrysler!.

This is the second time this car was involved in an accident involving sudden uncommanded acceleration. Vehicle was stopped awaiting opening of automatic garage door when throttle fully engaged driving car into garage door. An identical occurrance happened in spring of 1998 when car was stopped at traffic light and sudden acceleration sent car into vehicles in front of it. At the time dealer could find no defect. There was a different driver during each incident. Further, my son owns an identical vehicle which had a similar problem however, his malfunction did not result in any vehicle damage as car was in a parking lot and came to rest on a lawn.
