2006 Chrysler Sebring Conv Problems

SEATBELT DRIVERS SIDE DOESN'T RETRACT. LIKE 2007 THE CAR RANDOMLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING. IN MOTION. BOTH ARE HUGE SAFETY ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN BECAME INOPERABLE. THE FAILURE WAS PERSISTENT. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO CONCERNED THAT DUE TO THE HORN FAILING TO FUNCTION, IT MIGHT RESULT IN AN AIR BAG FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 150,000.

POSSIBLE TAKATA RECALL!!! WHILE COMING DOWN AND AROUND A CORNER ON A HIGHWAY THERE WAS A CAR TURNING AND I DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIMES TO STOP. WHICH CAUSED ME TO REAREND THE OTHER VEHICLE. IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL DAY SO WE HAD MY 2006 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE TOP DOWN. I WAS DRIVING WHILE MY 15 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. MY12 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER DIRECTLY BEHIND HER AND MY 7 YEAR OLD NIECE BEHIND ME. THE FRONT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. MY 15 YEAR OLD WHOM WAS WEARING HER SEATBELT WAS THROWN FORWARD DUE TO HER SEATBELT LOCKING MECHANISM NOT LOCKING. THANKFULLY THE SEATBELT EVENTUALLY CAUGHT HER BY THE RIGHT THIGH SAVING HER FROM BEING EJECTED FROM THE VEHICLE. SHE SUBSTAINED WHAT COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN A LIFE THREATENING LACERATION TO LEFT SIDE (BUT MORE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE) OF HER FOREHEARD DIRECTLY ABOVE HER LEFT EYEBROW. THE LACERATION WAS 8CM, THE SHAPE OF A CROSS, AND IT WAS 3 LAYERS DEEP. MY YOUNGER DAUGHTER WHOM WAS DIRECTLY BEHIND HER HAD A PATCH OF SKIN ON TOP OF HER LEFT FOOT THAT WAS CUT OFF. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING SOMEONE TO COME AND TAKE A LOOK AT THE VEHICLE BEFORE THE INSURANCE COMPANY GETS RID OF IT IN THE NEXT WEEK. WE ARE NOT SURE IF MY 15 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER'S HEAD WAS CUT FROM AIRBAG SHRAPNEL FLYING OUT SINCE THE SIZE, SHAPE, AND LOCATION OF THE LASERATION IS THE SAME SIZE, SHAPE AND LOCATION ON ONE OF THE BIGGER TRAKATA AIR BAG INJURIES THAT IS OUT THERE PUBLICLY. OR IF HER INJURY WAS DUE TO HER HITTING HER HEAD ON SOMETHING DUE TO THE FACT THAT HER SEATBELT LOCKING MECHANISM WAS NOT WORKING. EITHER WAY THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE IS INJURED OR WORSE YET KILLED... PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS...* THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD GO ON EVERY ONCE AND AWHILE BUT WOULD THEN GO OFF WHEN YOU MOVED THE PASSENGER CHAIR BACK OR FORTH. THE SAME PROBLEM THE 2010 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLES ARE JUST NOW RECALLING.

2006 CHRYSLER SEBRING HORN BLOW INTERMITTENTLY. I SEE ON THE INTERNET THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND BECAUSE IT IS LOCATED WITH THE AIRBAG MAY BE A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE IN THE WINTER WHEN IT IS COLD , I HAVE HAD TO UNPLUG MY HORN IN THE WINTER SO THAT IT WILL NO SOUND

REAR DEFROSTER CLIP KEEPS FALLING OFF REAR WINDOW. CHRYSLER WON'T TOUCH IT, REFERS TO WINDOW REPAIR, THEY WON'T TOUCH IT BECAUSE EVIDENTLY THEY ARE HARD TO REPAIR PROPERLY. NOT BEING ABLE TO DEFROST REAR WINDOW IN SUB FREEZING WEATHER IS NOT SAFE.

I PURCHASED MY SEBRING IN MAY OF 2007 & THE REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER CONTACT KEEPS BREAKING OFF FROM THE WINDOW AND THEREFORE DOESN'T HEAT THE REAR WINDOW FOR ICE REMOVAL. I DON'T REMEMBER EXACTLY WHEN THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS BUT IT WAS WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR OF PURCHASE. IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED 3 TIMES BY EITHER SOLDER OR GLUE. THIS WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. ON THE 3RD REPAIR MY REAR WINDOW SHATTERED ON 12/24/10 (I MIGHT ADD IT WAS SNOWING!). I CONTACTED MY INSURANCE COMPANY & WAS ADVISED TO BRING THE CAR TO A CAR REPAIR FACILITY (WHO MY INSURANCE COMPANY DEALS WITH) WHO SPECIALIZED IN THE REPAIRING OF CONVERTIBLE TOPS. A NEW REAR WINDOW WAS ORDERED & THE REPLACED. AGAIN! THE CONTACT HAS BROKEN OFF FROM THE WINDOW & AGAIN! I AM LEFT WITHOUT A WORKING REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER! I FIND THIS TO BE A SOMEWHAT DANGEROUS SITUATION AS CONVERTIBLE TOPS LACK A FULL REAR VIEW & HAVING NO WAY OF DEFOGGING MY REAR WINDOW LEAVES ME AT A DISADVANTAGE. THE PROBLEM TO ME, SEEMS TO BE THAT THE ELECTRICAL WIRING FROM CONTACT TO WINDOW IS TOO SHORT & THEREFORE BREAKS FROM THE CONTACT. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OTHER SEBRING CONV. OWNERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM AS I HAVE NOT SEEN THIS ON ANY PROBLEM REPORTS BUT I CAN TELL YOU THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING & I WOULD LOVE THE CHRYSLER COMPANY TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD GO THROUGH MY INSURANCE COMPANY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF A NEW REAR WINDOW AS THIS IS AN INCONVENIENCE. *TR

2 YEARS AGO MY HOOD AND THE DECORATIVE PIECES IN THE DOORS STARTED PEELING , THE TOP COAT IS COMING OFF ON THE ENTIRE HOOD, I HAD A BODY SHOP LOOK AT IT AND THEY STATED THAT WHEN IT HAD BEEN PAINTED THE PAINT HAD NOT DRIED BEFORE THE TOP COAT WAS APPLIED.

FIRST IS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. CODE SAY MISFIRE. SECOND PAINT IS PITTING AND WHITE AREAS APPEARING. THIRD HEADLIGHTS FOGGING UP. *JS

TAKATA RECALL:I WAS INVOLVED WITH A COLLISION. I WAS CROSSING A TWO LANE HIGHWAY THAT WAS SOUTHBOUND, AND I WAS GOING WESTBOUND CROSSING THE OTHER VEHICLE HIT MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE, BOTH THE PASSENGER AND THE DRIVER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I WAS IN THE CAR ALONE. WHEN THE PLASTIC STEERING WHEEL COVER PARTIALLY POPPED OFF, AND THE AIRBAG CAME OUT, THE PLASTIC COVER CUT MY RIGHT HAND 3RD FINGER, 80% SEVERED THE TENDON AND CHIPPED THE BONE. HAD TO BE SURGICALLY REPAIRED. DATE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS 8/29/2016. THAT WAS MY RIGHT HAND. MY LEFT HAND WAS BRUISED AND SCRATCHED. DUE TO THE ACCIDENT, THE CAR IS NOT REPAIRABLE. INCIDENT #16FL099929

HORN RANDOMLY GOES OFF (LIKE THE ALARM).AT FIRST IT WAS AT UNLOCK, NOW IT IS ALSO WHEN DRIVING AT SPEED. TOTALLY RANDOM. TODAY IT WENT OFF IN THE DRIVEWAY, AT A PARKING LOT, AND THEN AGAIN WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME. TOOK TO A DEALERSHIP LAST WEEK, THEY COULD NOT LOCATE A FAULT. 5 MIN ON GOOGLE AND I SAW MANY COMPLAINTS ON A FOIL THAT GETS WORN OVER TIME CAUSING CONTACT SHORTS IN THE HORN ASSEMBLY OR PAD...APPARENTLY A $1100 FIX. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AND IT IS A FAULTY PART, IT SHOULD MOST CERTAINLY BE A RECALL. I HAVE ONLY DRIVEN THIS CAR 31000 MILES. *TR

THE ENGINE (A 2.7L V6) "BLEW" OR "LOCKED UP" WITH, WHAT WE LEARNED LATER, WAS AN OIL SLUDGE ACCUMULATION PROBLEM. NO OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT EVER CAME ON UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE. THE ENGINE CAN NOT BE REPAIRED, ONLY REPLACED. THE DEALER WE BOUGHT THE CAR FROM, PURCHASED THE CAR (A RENTAL FROM FLORIDA) AT AUCTION. SO WE BOUGHT IT FROM HIM WITH 18,000 MI ALREADY ON IT. CHRYSLER WOULD NOT HONOR THE EXTENDED NEW CAR WARRANTY (8/80000) WE PURCHASED (AT $1000 EXTRA) BECAUSE WE COULD NOT PROVE, WITH RECEIPTS, THAT THE ENGINE WAS PROPERLY MAINTAINED. SO FAR NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX THE CAR BECAUSE WE CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE AT THIS TIME. WE HAVE ALSO SINCE LEARNED THAT CHRYSLER IS CURRENTLY INVOLVED IN CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS REGARDING THE 2.7L V6 ENGINE IN 4 STATES: CALIFORNIA, FLORIDA, ILLINOIS, AND NEW JERSEY, ALTHOUGH IT MAY HAVE BEEN CONSOLIDATED BY NOW (9/30/2010). NEED SOME HELP. THANKS *TR

N.H.T.A. CASE # [XXX] - ON INCIDENT DATE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN TO WORK.. APPROXIMATELY 12 MINUTES INTO TRIP. SEAT HEATERS WERE TURNED ON.. PASSENGER SIDE SEAT OVERHEATED CAUSING BURN THROUGH TO SEAT CUSHION.. NOTIFIED CHRYSLER IMMEDIATELY.. CHRYSLER SENT CONTRACT INVESTIGATOR ( [XXX])..

MY 2006 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE TOP COME UP WHILE DRIVE 50 MILES PER HOUR IT HAPPENED THREE TIMES. I AM SURE THE LATCH WAS PROPERLY INSERTED EACH TIME. THE FRONT END SUSPENSION JUMPS EASILY AND BRAKES MAKE A LOUD CRUNCH AT TIMES. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE CONSTANTLY LOUD...I CAN'T USE THEM. REPLACED THEM AND USE SOFT COMPOUND TO CLEAN WINDOW AND RAIN_X TO NO AVAIL. I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE TO TWO DIFFERENT CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS...THEY STATE NO PROBLEM FOUND. ALSO THEY REFUSE TO GIVE ME A DAY LOAN CAR. I PAID $2500.00 WHEN THIS VEHICLE WAS NEW FOR THE EXTENDED LIFETIME WARRANTY. THIS CAR IS SO NOISY AND AIR STREAMS THROUGH THE SIDES AND FRONT WINDOW. . I INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP IN THE EVENT THE CONVERTIBLE TOP RELEASES ITSELF AGAIN ON THE HIGHWAY..I WILL STOP AND CALL 911 AND INITIATE A POLICE REPORT. *TR
