NHTSA Complaint #10196779 — 2002 CHRYSLER SEBRING

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. *AK
