The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler Sebring. The contact stated that the passenger side front and rear tires were completely flat. She took the vehicle to a local mechanic and was informed that she needed new tires. The contact also heard a squeaking noise coming from the rear brakes. She took the vehicle to the dealer for repairs on the rear brakes, but the squeaking noise returned the following day. The dealer stated that the brakes were supposed to make the noise because it was a new vehicle. The tire failure recurred; therefore, new tires were installed. The contact heard a grinding sound the entire time she drove the vehicle. The brakes were replaced three times and the tires were replaced twice. The failure mileage was 35,000 and current mileage was 46,000. Updated 09/15/08 updated 09/18/08.

The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler Sebring. The horn has not been working ever since the vehicle was purchased. The dealer stated that a sensor light was illuminated due to a defect with the air bag; therefore, they replaced the air bag. The vehicle has been to the dealer four times for this failure. While driving at an unknown speed, the horn suddenly sounded and the contact could not make it stop. She has also experienced squealing, squeaking, and clunking noises when the brake pedal was depressed. The dealer replaced all four rotors and pads, but the brake failure has recurred. The vehicle may also be leaking brake fluid. Now that the vehicle has reached the 3 month or 3,000 mile limited warranty end date, the dealer will no longer provide repair services. The failure mileage was 65,000 and current mileage was 66,700.
