2008 Chrysler Sebring Conv Brakes Problems

“My car shut down completely as I was driving, the steering wasn't working, I couldn't turn the wheels at all. The breaks would not work either, no matter how hard I pressed on the breaks the pedal would not move. Luckily I wasn't going fast or driving on the highway cause that would have killed me.”

“When I applied the brakes pedal the car will come to a stop, but the steering wheel would shake. Took the car to a Chrysler dealer. The technician said that the front rotor were warped, he recommend that they cut the rotor and that would fix the problem. It fix the problem, but after 6000 mile later the problem return. I replace the front rotor and the problem went away. It cost me $250. 00. This problem was not cover by the warranty.”

Abs light goes on and off. Replaced the brakes with life time warranty brakes. Abs sensors were checked and in place when brakes repaired. …”

The following day we had the car towed to alhambra Chrysler dodge jeep ram. I was very detailed in what happened to the service manager. The result was a new computer to monitor and administer braking instructions to the vehicle. I almost left the dealership before I noticed no mention of the incident as I had originally described. This concerned me and I asked them if the remembered why I had the car towed in. …”
