2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING Electrical System Problems

WHEN I AM DRIVING AND IT IS RAINING OR HAS RAINED OR IF THE CAR IS WET THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR SKIPPING/ STALLING OUT WHEN YOU ACCELERATE. THIS ONLY OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS WET. IT HAS CUT COMPLETELY OFF AT AN INTERSECTIONS BEFORE. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS WITH SPEEDS LESS THAN 40 MPH OR YOU CAN HEAR AND FEEL IT PULLING/ WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE SPARK PLUGS GOING BAD AND HAD THEM REPLACED THAT THEY DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN IT WILL STALL OUT/SKIP. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE. OR STATE NO PROBLEM FOUND. THIS HAS GONE ONE FOR TWO YEARS. *TR

SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE LAST OCTOBER, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS HAS STOPPED WORKING ON A FEW OCCASIONS. AT SOME POINT THEY WOULD WORK AGAIN MOMENTARILY BUT ONLY TO STOP AGAIN. ONLY A PORTION OF THE CLUSTER WOULD REMAIN LIT. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS ARE CURRENTLY NOT WORKING ON OUR VEHICLE. *JS

THE CAR SOMETIMES STALLS. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, MOSTLY DURING OR AFTER IT RAINS, IT WILL JUST CUT OFF. IT CUTS OFF AT STOP LIGHTS AND WHILE I'M DRIVING. THERE ARE NO INDICATIONS ON THE DASHBOARD BEFORE IT CUTS OFF. IT ALWAYS STARTS BACK UP AFTER EACH INCIDENT. *TR

VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STALL WHILE TAKING LEFT- HAND TURN ON INTERSECTION @ ~15MPH. IT NOW SHOWS THE INDICATOR LIGHT FOR THE ENGINE RANDOMLY AND STALLS SOMEWHAT FREQUENTLY AT LOW SPEEDS. LASTLY, THE TRANS IS SLIPPING RIGOROUSLY. *TR

BOUGHT CERTIFIED USED 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE 7/11 WITH 18,000 MILES. FALL, 2011 RADIO STUCK ON ONE AM CHANNEL REGARDLESS OF SELECTING AM, FM, OR SIRIUS. DEALER OFFERED TO SELL ME NEW RADIO. AFTER RADIO NOT USED FOR A WEEK, STARTED TO FUNCTION OKAY AGAIN. JULY, 2012 HEADLIGHT ON MESSAGE AND ALARM UPON OPENING DOOR, DAYTIME, NO KEY IN IGNITION, NO HEADLIGHTS ON, INTERIOR DASH DISPLAY LIGHTS ON BUT DIM LIKE FOR NIGHTTIME. 12/12 INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUTOFF AUTOMATICALLY WHEN I EXITED CAR, SWITCH NOT IN ON POSITION. ONGOING: AUTO BRIGHTNESS DISPLAY ON RADIO DOES NOT WORK. TOP DOWN ON KEY FOB DOES NOT WORK. WINTER, 2013 STALLED TWICE AT RED LIGHTS, ALSO HAD CLUNKING NOISE WHEN TURNING. DEALER SAID STEERING RACK WAS WORN AND LEAKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED (35,000 MILES) AND WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. DEALER ALSO CLEANED THROTTLE PLATE AND FUEL INJECTORS FOR STALLING PROBLEM....

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE ALSO ERRONEOUSLY ACCELERATED WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS HOWEVER, THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE BUT REBOOTED THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AS A PRECAUTION. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 08V152000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND WAS ADVISED BY THE MANUFACTURER WAS THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000. *TR

TOOK MY 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING TO HAVE RECALL PART TRANS SHIFT INTERLOCK SPRING REPLACED. WHEN I ARRIVED TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. THE SERVICE DEPT INCLUDING THE MANAGER SAID THE BATTERY MUST HAVE GONE DEAD WHILE THEY WERE REPLACING THE RECALLED PART. ALL SERVICE PEOPLE INCLUDING THE MANAGER DID NOT EVEN WANT TO JUMP THE VEHICLE SO THAT WE COULD BRING IT HOME. THE VEHICLE HAD NEVER HAD A DEAD BATTERY BEFORE THIS. EVER SINCE THE PART WAS REPLACED THE BATTERY KEEPS GOING DEAD. BATTERY WAS REPLACED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO AND STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. WE GET NO ASSISTANCE FROM THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP EXCEPT FOR THEM TO SAY THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE. *TR

SO FAR MY 2008 SEBRING HAS TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING TWICE. I WAS SLOWING DOWN FROM 30MPH FOR A STOP LIGHT AND IT TURNED OFF AND WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO UTILIZE THE BRAKES IF NOT I WOULD HAVE REAR ENDED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, BUT AS FOR THE STEERING, IT WAS UNRESPONSIVE. HOWEVER, I TURNED MY CAR BACK ON AS IF NOTHING HAPPEN UNTIL THE SECOND TIME IT STALLED WHILE TURNING INTO MY STREET. SAME ISSUE OCCURRED (NO STEERING, BUT BRAKES WERE OK.)CAR STALLS ONCE AGAIN GOOD THING MY CAR TURNS BACK ON IMMEDIATELY. ITS WAS DANGEROUS ONLY FOR THE FACT THAT ONCOMING TRAFFIC WOULD BE UNABLE TO SEE ME STALLED THERE BECAUSE ROAD FORMS A HILL OVER THE CANAL, SINCE SOON AFTER I WENT PASSED OVER THE CANAL MY STREET ENTRANCE IS MORE OR LESS 20FT FROM THE CANAL, IT COULD BE A BLIND SPOT. *TR

THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE LIGHT IS CONTINUOUSLY COMING ON EVEN AFTER REPAIRS. THE CAR WILL RIDE FIND AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN CUT OFF WITH NO WARNING OTHER THAN THE LIGHT APPEARING. ALSO IT STALLS AND YOU CAN BE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WHICH IS DEFINITELY SAFETY HAZARDOUS. I'VE NOTICE THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED TO THOUSAND AND TO MY SURPRISE NO RECALL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO REPLACED THE SPARK PLUGS. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR TWO TIMES AND THE BATTERY BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE FAILURE WAS REPORTED TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 08V152000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: ELECTRICAL), HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I WAS DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AND STARTED SPEEDING UP DUE TO LESS TRAFFIC. I WAS GOING 60 MPH WHEN MY CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND STARTED MAKING THIS WEIRD REVVING NOISE (THE KIND WHEN YOU ARE PARKED OR IN NEUTRAL), MY WARNING LIGHT CAME ON FOR THE ELECTRICAL PANEL. I THEN PULLED OVER BECAUSE IT WAS NOT GOING ANY FASTER THAN 35 MPH. JUST LETTING IT SIT IT WAS MAKING THOSE SAME NOISES. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT. THE LIGHT WHEN AWAY AND IT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AGAIN. IT HAD A LITTLE ISSUE GETTING BACK UP TO SPEED BUT OVERALL IT WENT BACK TO NORMAL. *TR

FRONT DRIVER SEAT STARTED FEELING LOOSE, AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, LOW TIRE LIGHT CAME ON AND CHECK OIL LIGHT WOULD COME ON EVERY TIME CAR IS STARTED. A FEW DAYS LATER THE CAR DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT AND STARTED MAKING A LOUD KNOCKING NOISE, TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT THAT TENSIONER BELT BECAME LOOSE CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE CAR. I HAD TO GET A NEW ALTERNATOR, TENSIONER & PULL, AND TRANSMISSION FLUSHED/SERVICED AS WELL AS THE POWER STEERING. NOT VERY HAPPY WITH THIS 2008 SEBRING!!!!! *TR

ON MONDAY 1/28/2013 AFTER A HEAVY MORNING OF SNOWING AND RAINING, I BEGAN TO RUN ERRANDS. ALL OF SUDDEN MY CAR 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING STALLED AS I WAS DRIVING. I STARTED THE CAR IMMEDIATELY BACK UP WITH NO PROBLEMS HOWEVER SHORTLY AFTERWARDS PULLING UP TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT THE CAR STALLED AGAIN. EVERYTHING IN THE CAR GOES OFF AS IF SOMEONE HAS TURNED THE IGNITION KEY TO OFF POSITION. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS THERE ARE NO WARNING TO THE POSSIBILITY THE CAR IS ABOUT TO STALL. TUESDAY 1/29/13 I TOOK MY CAR TO A LOCAL REPAIR CHAIN AS IT CONTINUED TO STALL AND THEY REPORTED NOT FINDING ANYTHING ELECTRICAL WRONG WITH THE CAR NOR MECHANICAL. HOWEVER, THEY SUGGESTED THAT WHEN CARS STALL SOMETIMES IT MAY BE THE SPARK PLUGS MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. SO BASED ON THEIR SUGGESTION I HAD THE SPARK PLUGS REPLACED/TUNE UP. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS DID...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH WITH THE RADIO AND HEADLIGHTS ACTIVATED, THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEGAN TO ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. THE RADIO AND SPEEDOMETER WOULD NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. IN ADDITION, THE HEADLIGHTS BECAME DIM. THERE WAS A RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 08V152000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING); HOWEVER THE VIN WAS INELIGIBLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE STALLED. WHEN TESTED THE ENGINE CODE CAME BACK AS ELECTRICAL SHORT. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM BUT CLEARED THE ENGINE CODE. A FEW WEEKS LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. WHILE TRAVELING AT 50 MPH, AND COMING TO A STOP, THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING AND THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE CAR. AFTER GOING THRU A RED LIGHT ANOTHER CAR BROADSIDED MY CAR. *TR

AFTER I RECEIVED WORK DONE ON THE ELECTRICAL-RECALL, MY CAR KEEPS ON STALLING. THIS CAN BE VERY SCARY AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS. MY CAR SHOULD NOT BE SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING. I DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM UNTIL AFTER THE RECALL WAS FIXED ON MY CAR. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

WENT OUT TO CAR TO GO TO THE STORE UNLOCKED MY CAR WITH MY REMOTE AND HORN STARTED SOUNDING FOR NO REASON. TRIED TO PRESS UNLOCK/LOCK WITH REMOTE HORN STILL SOUNDING. AT THAT POINT I GOT BACK IN MY CAR TRIED SHUTTING THE DOORS AND STARTING THE VEHICLE ALARM STILL SOUNDING. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES I KEPT MESSING WITH THE REMOTE TRYING TO SHUT OFF THE HORN FINALLY THE HORN STOPPED. AFTER A HUGE EMBARRASSMENT AND SEVERAL BY-STANDERS TRYING TO ASSIST ME IN SHUTTING THE HORN OFF I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR UNLOCKED WHILE I WENT INTO THE GROCERY STORE. QUICKLY RACED THROUGH THE STORE GOT WHAT I NEEDED WENT BACK OUT TO MY VEHICLE STARTED THE ENGINE HORN CONTINUOUSLY WENT OFF AS I DROVE HOME. THIS IS CONTINUALLY HAPPENING TO ME AS I DRIVE MY CAR. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT CHRYSLER NEEDS TO...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING.

A THROTTLE CONTROL WARNING LIGHT APPEARS ON THE DASH OFF AND ON AT INTERMITTENT TIMES THE CAR LOSES POWER AND DIES WITHOUT WARNING. IT HAS DIED ON THE HIGHWAY SEVERAL TIMES SO FAR, BUT WILL RESTART AFTER A FEW MINUTES. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE FUEL IS LESS THAN HALF WAY FULL MORE THAN ANY OTHER TIME AND/OR WHEN TRAVELING UPHILL. RPM DIAL ON THE CAR JUMPS ERRATICALLY JUST BEFORE THE THROTTLE WARNING LIGHT APPEARS. PROBLEM HAS NOT OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELING AT LESS THAN 45 MPH. AFRAID THAT THE PROBLEM WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, IF IT HAPPENS WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE IS TRAVELING BEHIND ME. *TR

MY INSTRUMENTAL CLUSTER LIGHTS WENT OUT SO I CAN NOT SEE ANYTHING AT NIGHT. MY SPEED CONTROL/CRUISE CONTROL IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONING. *TR

THE CAR WILL STALL..WITH LITTLE TO NO NOTICE. IT MAKES YOU LOOSE CONTROL OF THE WHOLE CAR. THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT WHICH WILL COME ON SOMETIME AND NEVER GO OFF UNLESS YOU STOP THE CAR AND RESTART. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING BACK TO LOS ANGELES,CA FROM SEDONA, AZ. IT HAD BEEN RAINING OFF/ON ALL DAY. SOMETIMES LIGHTLY AND OFTEN TIMES VERY HEAVY WITH WAKE WATER COMING OFF OF OTHER CARS AND TRUCKS ON A VERY BUSY CA HIGHWAY. MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING DURING HEAVY DOWNPOUR TWICE. HAD TO CRAWL OFF THE FREEWAY WHILE UNABLE TO SEE BECAUSE OF NO WIPERS. HAD TO WAIT AT LEAST 15 MINUTES BEFORE THEY WOULD WORK AGAIN AFTER THE FIRST FAILURE. WAS ABLE TO TRAVEL USING THE DELAYED INTERMITTENT SEQUENCE UNTIL RAIN GOT TOO HEAVY. WHEN SWITCHED TO FASTER WIPING AFTER TEN MINUTES WIPERS STOPPED AGAIN. LUCKILY AGAIN I WAS ABLE TO CRAWL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AND I WAITED FOR THE RAIN TO STOP. I HAVE NOT HAD THIS HAPPEN BEFORE AND I HAVE DRIVEN LONG AND SHORT DISTANCES IN THE RAIN. ANOTHER ISSUE IS I HAVE HAD...

TL-THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT HE NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE WOULD REV UNEXPECTEDLY AND THAT IT WOULD ALSO STALL WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER AND THEY ADVISED HIM THAT THE BATTERY HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED FOR THE BATTERY, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE STALLING OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 4,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. TB

CHRYSLER SEBRING 2008 HOWEVER, I AM HAVING PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT WHICH WILL COME ON SOMETIME AND NEVER GO OFF UNLESS YOU STOP THE CAR AND RESTART. WHEN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT IS ON YOU CANNOT BREAK TO STOP THE CAR, OR SPEED UP. IT MAKE YOU LOOSE CONTROL OF THE WHOLE CAR INCREASING THE POTENTIALITY OF ACCIDENT IF YOU WAS DRIVING AT ANY SPEED ABOVE 25 MPH. I WENT TO CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS, BUT THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE CAR OR COULD CAUSE THAT FAILURE, `AND HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO FIX IT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE POWER TRAIN. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED TO ME ALREADY MORE THAN 30 TIMES. *TR

CAR WOULD NOT START. NO CRANK NO NOTHING. ONLINE IT STATES PART RECALLED, BUT CHRYSLER SAID RECALL DOESN'T AFFECT MY CAR... EVEN THOUGH I DRIVE A 2008 CHRYSLER SEBRING RECALL DOESN'T AFFECT ME???? DOESN'T AFFECT ME BUT PART DOESN'T WORK ON MY CAR. *TR

WE HAVE A 08 CHRYSLER SEBRING IT WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO WE WERE TOLD IT WAS THE BATTERY CHARGED 75. FOR A DIAG FEE. THE CAR ITSELF DIES WHEN AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LITE IT WILL SUDDENLY REV UP THE MOTOR AND JUST TURN OFF. IT STARTED TO STALL AND NOT TURN ON THE BATTERY WAS HAVING TO BE CHARGED OVER AND OVER. FINALLY WE CHANGED THE STARTER AND BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY THAT WAS 2 MONTHS AGO.NOW IT IS DOING THE SAME THING THE BATTERY IS DYING WE HAVE JUST TAKEN IT IN TO GET RECHARGED JUST TO FIND OUT IF IT IS THE ALTERNATOR. THE RECALL THAT WAS DONE ON THE SEBRING FOR THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR DOES NOT INCLUDE OUR CAR. I DON'T SEE HOW THE SAME VEHICLE THE SAME YEAR IS DOING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS DOES NOT GET INCLUDED...
