2002 Chrysler Sebring Wheels Problems

“On may 17,2010 while driving to college, I noticed a loud whining rough sound, and every time I hit a bump it would sound like something was loose coming from my tires. Before, I could stop to see what the problem was, my steering wheel locked and my car ran off the road when I attempted to regain control my Sebring over corrected and entered a counterclockwise spin. I crossed 5 busy lanes before striking a ditch. My car stopped opposite direction of oncoming traffic!!! July of 2013 I had my lower control arms, and ball joints replaced. …”

“First I had continuous oil leak so the pan or some part was ordered and installed. The oil is still leaking out of that pan or part? That was a couple hundred bucks including checking the constant flickering oil light which now just flickers and I pay it no attention. The second issue was a computer chip or something, the car would just not start so I took it in that was 800 something by the time the car was going again. …”

“For the past several months , my tires have been losing air- I thought that perhaps this was caused by the extreme temperatures. I continued to make sure my tires were at the correct level. Three weeks ago, I had a blow-out while traveling home from atlantic city, nj.. The tire was replaced the next day... A few days later, the new tire, as well as the others, continued to lose air..I brought back to the service station and was told I would now need another tire. …”

“My front passenger tire was low and would not keep air. My tires are original to the car. I thought that I just had a slow leak. Took the car to repair shop to have tire checked out. Was told by technician at repair shop that the chrome is severely peeling off the rim causing bead not to seal. The technician said he has never seen anything like it and that my wheel looked like it was ten years old already. Was informed by them that the chrome continually flakes off and doesn't allow the bead to seal to the rim. They noted this problem on my invoice.”

“Dt: the consumer states that at approximately six or seven weeks ago he noticed air leaking from a tire after checking the tire with a gauge. The consumer took the tire to a tire repair company, and was told that there was a problem with the aluminum rim. They stated that the chrome flakes off and doesn't allow the bead to seal to the rim. This is the original tire for the vehicle. The tire is located on the front passenger side.”
