CarComplaints.com Notes: After a horrific run of complaints and headaches, Chrysler introduced its 3rd generation Sebring starting with the 2007 model year. While there was a bit of complaint carryover, things eventually settled down and in 2009 the Sebring became one of the least complained about cars we have on record that model year. I know, it shocks us too.

If you’re shopping for a used car you could do better than a 2009 Sebring. But the fact of the matter is you could also do worse. A lot worse. And for that reason we gave this car our “Seal of Pretty Good.”

Sebring LX

  • Automatic transmission
  • 58,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

the car died in middle of a busy hiway a few miles out of town. took several tries to crank it and get turned around. I had to keep my foot on the gas while stopping at red light trying to get it to the repair shop. this is the 2nd time ive taken it in. once for the engine light where they checked everything and reset it just a few days prior to this incident. it only has 58,000 miles on it this is redicuous!! I cant afford to take it to the dealership where it could cost me thousands and the local repair shop is saying it could be the computer!!

Sebring 2.4L 4 Inline 4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 105,000 miles

serpentine belt snapped due to a seized alternator

I had the car for a couple years and while driving to work I heard a snap and a few thuds and my car shut down on me on the highway. Had to get towed back home, then when I found out what it was I took it back to the dealer and they replaced it no charge.
