TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM 24, 1020 BELMONT ST, BROCKTON, MA, 02301) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A FRACTURE IN THE CAMSHAFT TIMING AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER STATED THAT IT WAS A SAFETY HAZARD TO WORK ON THE VEHICLE DUE TO ITS CONDITION. THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 170,000.
CAR WILL STALL AT ANY SPEED. WILL RESTART AFTER ABOUT 15 TRIES. HAPPENS AFTER FILLING TANK. 1ST THOUGHT IT WAS BAD GAS. BUT TRIED DIFFERENT STATIONS. SAME PROBLEM. SPORADIC. OFTEN HAPPENS WHEN I SHUT OFF CAR AND THEN ATTEMPT TO START IT AGAIN A FEW MINUTES LATER. DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR IS COLD. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION ON HIGH SPEED ROADWAYS. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 68,000.
THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. CAR WILL LOSE ALL POWER, STEERING, AND BRAKES WHILE TRAVELING AT SPEEDS UP TO 55MPH. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I ALMOST KILLED MYSELF BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO 3 MECHANICS AND THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. CHRYSLER WON'T EVEN RETURN MY CALLS REGARDING THE ISSUE, WHICH I'VE RESEARCHED AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF OTHERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD AND CHRYSLER SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHATEVER IT IS THAT IS CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN. I'M WONDERING IF I CAN TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THEM. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE. *TR
