“I purchased a Chrysler Sebring new around march of 2007. I have taken this car back 3 times now for what has been called a motor fan they have replaced it 2 times and are now saying they can't find anything wrong. The car is making the same irritating noise it made the first 2 times they replaced this fan. It is almost a humming sound with vibration I say it sounds like I am driving a diesel and its a car.”
NHTSA complaint #10200490, filed 2007-08, 500 miles“I bought my Sebring sedan in may of 2006 with 5 miles on it. For starters, I immediately had issues with the radio cutting out. I took it back to the dealership asap, and they claimed to have fixed it, but didn't. My second problem was my horn. It all of a sudden started sounding muffled, if it sounded at all. I called about that problem and they told me to bring it in. Which I would have, but over that weekend out of nowhere, my car stalled out on me without any kind of warning lights or gauges. …”

NHTSA complaint #10260250, filed 2009-02, 25,000 miles“This is a 2006 Sebring touring, bought with around 33,00 miles. The first night I tried this car, the check engine light came on with them saying they would fix it. It didn't come back on for months...after the warranty was up. I have had this car almost a year and it had a 30 day warranty. I took it back at least once a week for the warranty with them saying they could find nothing wrong. The brakes make rubbing noises, even though I was told they put on new brake shoes and it wobbles, even though they said they calibrated the rotors and fixed them. …”
