“The 2009 Chrysler Sebring horn starts to blow at all hours and I have to go out and hit the horn pad on the steering wheel. I had it go off in traffic and almost had a guy in a road rage situation until I told him what happens to the horn. This should be a recall for safety for sure. I see where there are many more complaints on the internet.”

I have taken it in for repairs 4 times with the last time being 09-02-10 the dealership pulled the tranny to put in a new sensor module within 24 hours it is doing the same thing and now the starter grinds and has a mind of its own and wont stop turning over....called the corp and they said sorry it is a holiday get a hold of your dealer.”
NHTSA complaint #10353855, filed 2010-09, 1,100 miles“My wife was driving her 2009 Chrysler Sebring at approximately 55 miles per hour when all the indicator lights in the instrument cluster all began to flash erratically. The car began to loose power and then stalled while she was trying to remain in control. She was eventually able to get the car to the side of the road in a area that has barely any shoulder to stop on with much effort since no power makes a car with power steering very difficult to drive. …”
