Traveling on the interstate two cars got into a fender bender another crashed into them and I was traveling behind the third vehicle when I applied the brakes and sent into a skid. My car slid a good distance until it crashed right into the back of the third vehicle which was a Volvo in which their air bags deployed. My sebring did not stop nor did the air bags deploy. I was traveling around 30-40 mph when the impact happen. Will not have confirmation until tomorrow but it appears that the car will not be salvageable. It is my understanding that anti-lock brakes should prevent a skid on a dry surface on a clear day.

The airbag light goes on and off at random. Chrysler has replaced the seatbelt tensioner on two separate occasions to fix the problem. It is now recurring and the local Chrysler dealer wants to replace both driver and passenger seatbelt tensioners to turn off the light. I believe, from online queries, that this is a common problem with this particular car model series. The condition is clearly unsafe.

I am poa for james hampton owner of the vehicle, 2004 Chrysler Sebring convertible was involved in a head on collision, james hampton suffered serious injury, the convertible top was down at time of accident. Observing him prior to the accident in the vehicle I made the observation that he didn't appear to fit this car well, he is six foot three inches tall, top of windshield is about mid forehead in height on him, at time of incident air bag did deploy, still severe head injury to forehead on left side, observation of injury and location leads me to question that had he been under six foot in height air bag would have afforded more protection from impact of windshield, or if height of windshield was higher impact might have been different, car was determined a loss. I am concerned that consumer height, above average could possibly predispose one to more serious or fatal injury due to height of windshield relevant to area of impact.
