| The rear window defroster does not work. *nm | |||
| 01/11/2006 | 70000 | 2 | |
| When opening and closing the top, often times the sides of the top fold underneath the rear window. this causes a crease which makes it more likely to occur again. when folded under the top often leaks in the rain. when manually pulled out into it's rightful place, the portion of the top pulled out becomes ruffled and unsightly. damages were caused to the rear window defroster. on one side, the wire connected to the electronic defroster was broken off. also, the top has torn loose from the bottom window over halfway across the window. the top has already been replaced once under warranty for the same problem, and the same problem has now recurred.*ak | |||

| Very snowy conditions in killington, vermont. revving the engine to try and get traction. sparks and fumes emitted from the wiring that connects the wire to the rear defroster. eventually, the wire came detached, making the rear defroster both inoperable and a fire/health hazard. a useless rear defroster means a useless rear window. no direct backwards visibility other than the outside rearview mirrors. | |||

| I am fed up with this chrysler sebring i bought 2 years ago. its had so many problems and now a major one and a popular one i see is happening and before an accident happens lord willing i will make it to the dealer tomorrow. my steering in my 2001 sebring started up last week when i went to turn the wheel it was super tight and i knew instantly something was wrong. now it is making cracking sounds and is still hard to turn. i called the dealer and they said it sounded like its my rack and pinion. i had taken it to my own mechanic who couldn't find anything visibly wrong with it and said it might be the rack and pinion. after reading all the problems this car has had with the steering i am not surprised mine is right there with them all. i have only 51,000 miles on the car. i am furious. i don't want to pay to get this fixed. i shouldn't have to. its chryslers fault. my air bag light is also on. who knows what that is all about. my car started leaking oil from the oil pan gasket a month after i bought it at 32,000 miles and 2 of the motors have gone out in the power windows. this is really a piece of junk! *tr | |||
