This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
1999 Chrysler Sebring. Car was caught on fire due to power steering leak. The consumer also had a fuel pump issue. The repair shop stated the connections had burned at the fuel pump.
This car is a death trap and needs to be investigated. Car will lose all power, steering, and brakes while traveling at speeds up to 55mph. This is very dangerous and I almost killed myself because of this issue. I have taken the car to 3 mechanics and they cannot diagnose the problem. Chrysler won't even return my calls regarding the issue, which I've researched and found hundreds of others with this same problem. This is a huge safety hazard and Chrysler should take responsibility for whatever it is that is causing this to happen. I'm wondering if I can take legal action against them. This is absolutely unacceptable.
We discovered that the left lower ball joint on our 1999 Chrysler Sebring convertible was dangerously worn out due to moisture and corrosion inside of the boot. This exact condition is covered under recall campaign #967 for the sebring coupe, but excludes the convertible. The convertible should be added to this recall to prevent separation of the parts affected and loss of control of the vehicle.
The consumers vehicle experienced the same symptoms as recall #01I012000 which is related to the steering. The dealer refused to repair the problem because the vehicles VIN was not included in the recall.
