NHTSA Complaint #10258016 — 2003 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE

I PURCHASED A 2003 CHRYSLER SEBRING IN EARLY '07' I STILL OWE ABOUT 5,000 ON THE CAR. FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS MY OIL LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON WHEN I COME TO A STOP. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER AND THEY SAID THE OIL SENDER SWITCH WAS BAD AND LEAKING OIL. THEY CHARGED ME 173.00 TO REPLACE IT AND WHEN I LEFT I GOT ABOUT 5 MILES DOWN THE ROAD AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. NOW I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE ENGINE MOST LIKELY WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. IT IS THE 2.7 THAT I NOW HAVE LEARNED IS ONE OF THE WORSE ENGINES MADE. THIS LAST CHRISTMAS I WAS AT A PARTY AND MY FRIEND INTRODUCED ME TO HIS ROOMMATE THAT WAS GOING TO DIESEL ENGINE SCHOOL,HE HAD ALREADY RECEIVED EVERY GAS AUTOMOBILE CERTIFICATION THERE IN EXISTENCE AND IS ONE OF THE TOP MECHANICS IN THE AREA! WE STARTED TALKING ABOUT CARS AND HE ASKED ME WHAT I DROVE, I TOLD HIM I HAD A 2003 SEBRING. HIS REPLY WAS.."OH, I'M SORRY". NOW I KNOW WHAT HE MEANT BY THAT,AT THE TIME I THOUGHT HE WAS JUST JOKING. I HOPE SOMEONE WILL START A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT,IF THEY DON'T REMEDY THIS PROBLEM I WILL PRAY DAILY THAT CHRYSLER GOES UNDER AND WILL BAD MOUTH THEM TO EVERY PERSON I KNOW AND MEET. *TR
