2007 Chrysler Sebring Engine Problems

“Takata recall I bought this car on 4/1/2019. On 4/11/2019 my car completely broke down on the freeway. There was a messaging saying hot oil. The engine stopped working and it said problems with tpm system. I had to get my car towed to the car mechanic because it wouldn't start at all.”

“As I was slowing for a red signal at an intersection, my engine shut off as if I turned off the key. It didn't shudder or give any indication that there was difficulty with the engine performance, it simply ceased running. I read a ap article on the Chrysler 200 engine stall in this mornings paper and noted that motor being investigated by your agency was the same motor that is in my Sebring. …”

“Attempted to start vehicle in the morning, turned the key to crank motor and the engine would not start but continued to crank. Eventually it stopped cranking, I attempted to start vehicle again then it started. Began driving my car down the highway and the air bags light started going off and stayed on for the rest of my drive. Also while driving around corners the brake light will go off as well as going down some hills.”

“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. …”

“As I approached a stop light and had to stop, the engine stalled, and I had to restart it from the ignition. It happened on three other occasions (once in a left turn at a stop sign). The steering problem is progressively aggravating to the point of loosing power assist when I make a left turn, and occasionally a right turn, also. It started as a small inconvenience, but at this point, if I am not very careful when I make a left turn, the car would go strait instead of turning.”
