THE HORN IS NOT WORKING AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, DIAGNOSED AS BROKEN CLOCKSPRING.

On 6/22/24 I made a left turn, stopped to park. I shifted the gear into reverse and heard a loud pop sound then smoke start coming from underneath the driver side of the hood. I put the car into park and lifted the hood, there were flames on the driver side of the car. The fire department was contacted and put the fire out. The car is totaled.

The steering wheel got stiff and hard to turn making turning a struggle. The shifting gears slipped and locked in place. The electronic throttle is is indicating a problem. These are just a problem over some time.

The contact owns a 2010 Chrysler Sebring. The contact stated that while the vehicle was idling, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer however, the vehicle had not yet been diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

Air bag light stays on at all times and it put fear of safety issue is a wreck is to happen. Driver seatbelt light doesn’t go off, it’s as though when putting the belt on even though it’s latched it isn’t and causes the warning light to stay on.

The driver seat has a part that wears out and causes the power seat to move forward and backward on its slide track. eventually the part will fail and the seat will slide right into the steering wheel which will impact the drivers chest. The power seat has two acme threaded rods that drive the seat rails forward/ backwards to allow driver to adjust the seat. the acme rods drive a custom screw block to allow the motion. when in static position only the screw block holds the seat and stops it from moving forward and backward. from what i can observe the acme rod is case hardened but the screw block is not. the screw block seems to wear out prematurely after four years. if left unaddressed the screw block could fail completely and allow the seat and passenger to hit the steering wheel while braking or in a front end collisdion.

The contact owns a 2010 Chrysler Sebring. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the dealer performed a recall repair under NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V668000 (Seat Belts, Air Bags). The dealer informed the contact that the recall was not related to the failure. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that an unknown part of the driver's side air bag needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 101,462.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE NOT WORKING NOW (JUNE 2017) AND THE GARAGE SAYS IT IS BECAUSE OF THE INTEGRATED CONTROL MODULE. THE MODULE IS STILL ON BACK ORDER AND WE ARE NUMBER 450 OR SUCH.

CAR WENT DEAD ON ROAD DUE TO A BAD TOTAL INTERGRATED POWER MODULE

DRIVING INTO WORK ON JUNE 27, 2016 AT 7:45 AM I PROCEEDED OFF THE HIGHWAY RAMP AND MY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON I PUSHED THE BRAKE AND PRESSED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE THINKING SOME HOW THAT WILL HELP; HOWEVER IT DIDN'T AND AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES IT WENT OFF. I WENT TO WORK AND IT WAS FINE. AGAIN THIS MORNING JULY 7 AT 8:20 THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED THIS MORNING AND NOW MY BACK BRAKES ARE SQUEAKING.

I PURCHASED A 2010 CHRYSLER SEBRING WITH A 2.7 LITER LH ENGINE FROM MEADOR JEEP DEALERSHIP IN APPROXIMATELY 2014. IT HAD APPROXIMATELY 32K MILES ON THE ODOMETER. AS I AM RETIRED, AND NO LONGER HAVE A COMMUTE TO WORK, I DO NOT DRIVE MORE THAN 8K A YEAR. IN FEBRUARY 2016 I HEARD A RATTLING NOISE IN THE ENGINE AND TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. ON FEBRUARY 25, 2016 THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE TIMING CHAIN ("TIMING TENSIONER") FOR A COST OF $795.83. WHEN I PICKED UP MY CAR, CHRIS, ONE OF THE SERVICE WRITERS, ADVISED ME TO DRIVE THE CAR MORE OFTEN, AND TO BE HARD ON THE ENGINE. ON APPROXIMATELY MAY 5, 2016 I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY, AND THE ENGINE STOPPED WORKING. AS I WAS NOT ABLE TO RESTART IT, I HAD THE CAR TOWED BACK TO MEADOR JEEP FOR DIAGNOSIS. ACCORDING TO CHRIS, THE SERVICE WRITER, THE ENGINE WAS "BLOWN" AND COULD BE REPAIRED FOR $12,000. THE ENGINE HAD ONLY 40K MILES ON IT. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE CHRYSLER 2.7 LITER V6 ENGINE ONLINE, AND HAVE FOUND THAT THESE ENGINES ARE NOTORIOUS FOR WATER SEEPING INTO THE OIL, CREATING A THICK SLUDGE THAT LEADS TO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE.

THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE RPM DECREASES THEN ENGINE STALLS. SEVERAL TIMES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART ENGINE AND IT HAS NOW COMPLETELY FAILED. I SEE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS ISSUE ONLINE BUT NO SPECIFIC REPAIR FOR THIS DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHRYSLER SERBRING. WHILE MAKING A TURN, THE STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO RESPOND WHEN THE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER CONTROL MODULE AND THE BRAKE HYDRAULIC PUMP FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 10V009000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) AND 10V475000(STEERING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000.

MY CAR'S ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON WHEN I AM IN MOTION. THE ETC TURNS OFF WHEN THE CAR IS CUT OFF AND RESTARTED. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THE EXPRESSWAY BEING THAT I DRIVE FOR A LIVING.

WHITISH/GRAYISH SMOKE WAS BILLOWING OUT OF FRONT END OF CAR. PATRONS DRIVING ALERTED US & WE EXITED VEHICLE. AS WE VACATED VEHICLE WE REALIZED PURSE WAS STILL IN VEHICLE, WE RAN TO RETRIEVE IT & AS WE RETRIEVED BELONGINGS, FIRE ENGULFED FRONT END OF VEHICLE & SHOT THROUGH FRONT OF VEHICLE & ENGULFED THE ENTIRE FRONT PORTION OF VEHICLE & INSIDE OF VEHICLE.
