Tire sensor key coming on after refill tire and goes on and off and this are short and I seen it in the recall that you were replaced it free of charge. I need to set up appointment to have it done.

I've had to replace the battery in this 3 times. Alternator 1. And Throttle Body Position Sensor twice. And now it's all starting to act up again. Car stalls, no reason, all dashboard warning lights flash and it stalls. No dashboard lights at night. Occasionally they flicker. Windshield wipers either won't work or won't shut off. Front windows are unusable, the track broke and back windows don't have power to make them work. Airbag and abs lights always flashing on dash and warning bell goes off all the time. Now my High beam wires have completely crumbled and radio takes 5-10 minutes to come on. Obviously a major electrical issue. I've lost my job thanks to the "reliability" of this money pit. Owned 3 years, problems began then. Today all lights are flashing, the air starts blowing high, wipers go on. I stop at light and it shuts off. Had to push off busy road. Waited half hour and it started, but now check engine, air bag, throttle body and seat belt lights all on. Very slowly, with many breaks, drive home & car smells like burning rubber. Visually can't find source. All fuses are good, and brand new battery last week.

The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler 200. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the transmission failed to shift out of 1st gear. In addition, the contact lives in a hot climate, and the A/C was not functioning as needed. The contact stated that the hatchback occasionally failed to open unless force was used. The vehicle was taken to a local independent mechanic where it was scanned with an OBD2 scanner and DTC Codes: P23, 06033, 2100707, and 0803806 were retrieved. The vehicle was repaired but the failure reoccurred. The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 175,000.

UNKNOWN Put car into park and went into store came out and could not get car to shift out of park

New battery, plugs and wires, new alternator. It will run for 5 seconds after jumping, then lights pop on and it dies. When jumping the negative also throws a spark while trying to start.

There were 7 recalls on my make, year, model vehicle. Three of which were Brakes, Air Bags, and the TPMS tire monitoring system. Other body parts, doors and hood releases had recalls along with hvac/air conditioning systems. Radiator/fan motor failures. Doors flying open during transit. The ABS control module could cause the brakes to lock-up during braking. Shorts from unused connectors for the computer/TPMS system/brakes and air bags have been causing many unpredictable breakdowns. Some predictable, from past records, state recorded Instances from 180,963 vehicles that just failure of the TPMS monitor system has already caused engine no start, dead battery, Inoperable cruise control, remote start system, engine stalling which could cause a "crash without warning". This was what i read on the www.autoblog site concerning this vehicle. I contacted the Chrysler Recall Center and the site says the dealer's techs would seal the wiring "free of charge", and to replace the front seat track position sensors "free of charge". The recall center said they wouldn't do any repairs at their "free of charge" policy for ME. They said that I would have to pay out-of-pocket, when the site says they already serviced 180,963 vehicles "free of charge". I'm broke and on fixed income. Why are they being so unfair. From what I heard, and I could be wrong, but I was made to believe that there is no expiration date for recalls. If they already state online, some of the recalls could cause a "crash w

The contact owns a 2007 Chrysler Sebring. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. Due to the failure, the horn and cruise control functions were inoperable. The contact had taken the vehicle to a certified mechanic who determined that the clockspring was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 150,000.

I was sitting in the driver's seat with seat belt buckle up around myself with nothing else in the car besides myself and the airbag light came on the dash panel. It's stays on everytime I start the car and been that way for maybe little over a year.

HORN STOPPED WORKING AND AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. IT STOP WORKING WHILE I TRIED PRESSING ON THE HORN WHILE DRIVING.

ECM FAILURE, ELECTRONIC THROTTLE FAILURE AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER HAVING ISSUSES.

I WAS RIDING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY DAUGHTER IN PASSENGER SEAT WHEN SUDDENLY MY ENGINE LIGHT STARTED BLINKING AND THE RPM'S SHOT UP TO ABOUT 7,000 AND CONTINUED IF ACCELERATOR WAS PRESS. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER. CALL AAA TO HAVE CAR TOWED TO MY DESTINATION. THE CAR WAS NOW IN WHAT IS CALLED LIMP MODE AND HAS BEEN FOR 2 MONTHS NOW.

CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL BULLETIN ON AUG 30, 2010 "K16 A/T SHIFT INTERLOCK LEVER SPRING"- THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SHIFT LEVER INTERLOCK SPRING RETAINER HOOK MAY BREAK RESULTING IN THE INABILITY TO MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER OUT OF THE "PARK" POSITION. ALTHOUGH THEY REPLACED THE SHIFTER LOCK SPRING ON MY VEHICLE ON SEPT 2011, THIS REPLACED SPRING IS STILL FRAGILE AND DOES NOT ADDRESS THIS DEFECT RESULTING IN THE REPLACED PART BEING DAMAGED AGAIN IN 2020. REQUESTING NHTSA TO RE-REQUEST CHRYSLER TO REPAIR THIS SPRING FOR VEHICLES THAT WERE REPAIRED BUT ARE NOW RE-AFFECTED AGAIN DUE TO LACK OF DUALITY OF THE REPLACEMENT PART. *TR

MY CAR STALLS WHEN I AM STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. NO LIGHTS OR WARNINGS, JUST STALLS.

VERY MAJOR PROBLEM. ON A COLD START, IF THE CAR WAS OFF FOR AT LEAST 6 HOURS, IT CRANKS AND CRANKS AND CRANKS FOR ABOUT 8 SECONDS BEFORE STARTING, WHEN IT DOES START, IT REVS ALL THE WAY TO 2500 RPMS BY ITSELF AND SLOWLY GOES DOWN. IF I TRY TO PUT IT IN DRIVE BEFORE IT STOPS REVVING, THE RPMS GO UP AND DOWN BY THEMSELVES AND MY ETC LIGHT STARTS FLASHING AND I AM UNABLE TO CONTROL THE RPMS. I THEN HAVE TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND START IT AGAIN TO STOP THE CAR SPASMS. 50% WHEN I START IT AND LET IT STOP REVVING BEFORE SHIFTING TO DRIVE, IT GOES DOWN TO 1000 RPMS AND I'M GOOD TO GO. THE OTHER 50% OF THE TIME, IT FLASHES THE ETC LIGHT AND STUTTERS AND I MUST KEEP RESTARTING THE CAR TO BE ABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE IT. I SEARHED UP THE PROBLEM AND SAW THAT BAD SPARK PLUGS OR A DIRTY INTAKE MANIFOLD COULD BE THE PROBLEMS. I THEN GOT MY SPARK PLUGS CHANGED AND INTAKE MANIFOLD TAKEN OUT MY CAR TO BE CLEANED OUT. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. I THEN SEARCHED MORE AND WENT THROUGH A THREAD OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM, PEOPLE WITH DODGE AVENGERS AND CHRYSLER SEBRINGS ALL AROUND THE YEAR MY CAR MODEL IS. MULTIPLE COMMENTERS IN THE THREAD EXPLAINED THAT THEY PUT THROUGH A COMPLAINT TO THE NHTSA AND A RECALL FOR THEIR CARS WERE MADE. MULTIPLE PEOPLE ALSO SAID THAT THE PART IN THE CAR CAUSING THIS PROBLEM IS THE FAULT OF CHRYSLER AND DODGE. HERE'S A LINK TO THE THREAD: HTTPS://DODGEFORUM.COM/FORUM/2008-CURRENT-DODGE-AVENGER/226963-ELECTRONIC-THROTTLE-CONTROL-LIGHT-HORSE-POWER-LOSS.HTML TH

THROTTLE BODY WENT BAD WHICH WAS VERY DANGEROUS AS MY SON WAS DRIVING CAR AND IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND MY SON WAS NEARLY HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. THE PLASTIC GEARS IN THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED BEFORE THERE IS A LARGE LAWSUIT AGAINST DODGE/CHRYSLER FOR A POORLY DESIGNED PART THAT SHOULD NOT BE PUT INTO VEHICLES!

I HEARD A LOT OF PEOPLES HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE THERMOSTAT ON A CHRYSLER SEBRING 2007 GOING BAD AND I WAS WANTING Y'ALL TO PUT IT ON A RECALL BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEIR THERMOSTATS ON THESE MODELS OF CARS AND IF YOU NEED TO CONTACT ME ME ON THIS MATTER MY PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX] REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC *TR

THE DOOR LOCK . THE PIECE THAT POP'S UP AND DOWN . IF YOU HAVE THE WINDOW DOWN AND GOT YOUR RESTING ON THE DOOR WHEN YOU START DOWN THE ROAD AND THE DOORS LOCK AUTOMATICALLY THE PIECE THAT MOVES UP AND DOWN WHEN IT GOES DOWN IT WILL PINCH YOUR SKIN BAD AS IT TRYS TO PULL YOUR SKIN DOWN IN THE HOLE. ON BOTH SIDES OF THE FRONT DOORS. BAD ENOUGH TO BRING YOUR SKIN. IT REALLY HURTS. I HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR TO DO THAT. ITS NOT JUST ME OTHER PEOPLE HAVE DROVE THE CAR AND SAYS THE SAME THING. AFTER A FEW HUNDRED TIMES I REMEMBER TO WATCH FOR IT. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING TO GET IT NOT TO DO THAT. THE ONLY WAY I SEE IS CUT THE PIECE OFF BUT THAT WOULD BE UNSAFE. I DON'T THINK THE PIECE COMES OFF IN A EASY WAY.
