The airbag light has been in for a long time. I know someone that has the same car and their car has the same issue. Also the true gage reader is malfunctioning. Now I have problems with the car stalling on the roadway. I called Chrysler about the recalls and the said everything has been taken care of. They couldn't tell me who brought the car in fir repairs. I've had the car for 8 years. I dont think the issues have been resolved. They should at least be able to see who brought the car in fir the repairs. The headlights will sometimes go off when going around turns. I met the previous owner and he told me that these issues are why he got rid of the car. Please help me get the recalls fixed so something bad doesn't happen to us in this car.

When turning steering-wheel to the left or right there is a knocking noise. The fix is the replacement of "gear-rack" with inner-tie-rods, and front-end realignment at a cost of $1000. This seems to be a chronic problem with this series of the Chrysler Sebring. Here's an example of the online chatter: www.sebringclub.net/board/viewtopic.php?F=32&T=26163
