All Steeringrack And Pinion Complaints
AT ABOUT 51,000 MILES MY CAR BEGAN MAKING LOUD SQUEAKING NOISES FROM THE FRONT END EVERY TIME YOU PASS OVER A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD. IT ALSO DEVELOPED MAJOR VIBRATIONS IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN THE CAR WAS SLOWING UP TO STOP. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CHRYLSER DEALER I WAS TOLD THAT THE INNER TIE RODS WERE METAL TO METAL AND IT ALSO NEEDED NEW RACK AND PINION STEERING. THIS AMOUNTS TO NEARLY $1,000 EXPENSE ON A CAR JUST A LITTLE MORE THAN ONE YEAR FROM THE TIME THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. THE CAR IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE SINCE THE STEERING CAN GO OUT. I HAD VERY LITTLE ADVANCE WARNING OF THIS PROBLEM AND AM NOT PREPARED TO INVEST THIS KIND OF MONEY IN ORDER TO HAVE A SAFE CAR FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. WE HAD PLANNED TO DRIVE THIS CAR ON...

STEERING RACK MAKES CLANKING/RATTLING NOISE WHEN TURNING OVER ROUGH PAVEMENT. CAN BE FELT THROUGH STEERING COLUMN. SERVICE TECHNICIANS AT DEALER HEARD NOISE BUT COULD NOT INITIALLY IDENTIFY IT. THEY DROVE 4 OTHER 2001 SEBRING SEDANS AND HEARD SAME NOISE. CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND WERE TOLD IT WAS STEERING RACK. I WROTE LETTER TO CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD THAT NOISE IS A "CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CAR." I AM VERY CONCERNED SINCE STEERING IS INVOLVED. WOULD LIKE THIS PROBLEM FIXED AND NOT TOLD "THEY ALL DO IT."
