The contact owns a 2005 Chrysler Sebring. The contact exited the vehicle without the key in the ignition. Her elbow struck the gear shifter and placed it in reverse; however, the vehicle moved forward and struck a house and a porch. The contact entered her vehicle and drove to her residence. The dealer and manufacturer have not been notified. The front fender and the top of the hood were damaged. The insurance company will be notified. The failure and current mileages were 85,744.

Purchased 2005 Sebring convertible in early 2006 with 18,000 miles on it. Was pushed into an extended warranty that has went out of business. Car cruise control quit working, was a wiring issue, had to have steering wheel tore apart and repaired. Dealer cost $374. Interior lights in car flicker and continue to flicker. Car goes into gear hard sometimes, like a clunk. No the blower motor in the vehicle has went out and the car only has 84,000 miles on it. If you google this vehicle for blowers it is all over the internet, a manufacturer problem that only has a service bulletin. How nice of Chrysler to know they have thousands of this issue and they do nothing about it. I am very displeased with the problems I am experiencing with this vehicle. Signed a very upset customer.

I've been a chrsyler person all my life. One day about two months ago I noticed my transmission not shifting properly, it stuck in low gear and after I gave the vehicle more and more gas it then finally shifted into second gear. After parking on a slight grade on a hill something with my fluid level was not proper. I checked my fluid and all was good. I have a associate degree in mechanics. So, after another week went by my transmission again would not shift properly after leaving work on day. This time I was parked on a level parking lot. It done this a couple time before sending to get looked at. I made an appointment at the dealership to look at it at this point. I advised that my transmission was shifting weird and it didn't do it all the time. So they did a diagnostic test, road tested and was advised noting was wrong with it. I advised them that why would I bring my car in for service if there was nothing wrong with it. Again I advised it doesn't do it all the time and I also asked if they had any service problems with that transmission? service manager advised me- they had a few issues. But until they come up with a diagnostic problem there is nothing they can do. They did advise me to change my tranny oil also at that time. I only had 49,000 on my car at that time. I am still experiencing this shifting problem to this date. I hope NHTSA could help in this manner.

My horn has started going off for no reason. It will not work when I press on it, but will sound itself at any time during the day or night. The lights on my stereo have been flickering, and the components on the steering wheel (such as the stereo volume and crust control) will turn themselves on and off or up and down. The car has also had problems shifting into gears like it is supposed to. I have only had the car for a year this month, and I have had nothing but problems with it. When I have had it looked at, I am told there is nothing wrong with it. I know it is not normal for the horn to sound off like it does, and for the stereo controls on the steering wheel to turn the volume up or down without anyone pressing on the buttons like they do. I read another persons report about the airbag system that is very similar to my problems, and I feel like the manufacture should be responsible to fix these problems. If I would have known that this car would end up with problems like this, I never would have bought it!

I have been very pleased with my car and it's performance, till one day about two weeks ago I noticed the RPM's running a bit too high at 65 mph. I turned the radio down and the engine sounded like it was working to hard on a flat straight plain. I tried to downshift the transmission into 4th from drive(5th) but it did not change. So the trans. Will not go into 5th gear and on cold days it will rev up to 4 to 5 K before it will shift from 3rd to 4th gear at about 30 to 40 mph. I'm going today to get the oil changed and will tell the dealership of the problem and the recalls and other transmission problem reports I have read today........................... it is now later in the day, the dealership looked over my car, hooked it up to the computer, and found nothing wrong. No action was taken, no explanation for what I am experiencing was given. I have the report from the dealer and I am now submitting this, I will leave this paper trail to get some cost recovery due to the car and dealerships inability to fix this seemingly common problem.
