| I have a 2005 chrysler sebring that i purchased used. around the end of march of this year the horn started blowing intermittently. i took it to a chrysler dealership and they said they found nothing. on april 8, 2007 my horn started going off again. this continued for that entire week the horn would blow even during the middle of the night disturbing myself and my neighbors. i took the car back to chrysler and was told the horn pad and airbag needed to be replaced for $730. after letting my car sit at the dealership for over a week i had to call chrysler myself to find out that the part was backordered. had i not called, i never would have been notified. due to such a lack of customer service i took my car back. i emailed chrysler and told them i should not be responsible for a defective horn and it should be recalled. their response was of no help at all. i am also getting the brakes done frequently, and now my driver's side window is stuck it will not roll up. i have gone onto the chrysler website and entered my vin number for a recall search but they find nothing. i still feel there is something wrong with my car. a two year old car should not have this many issues. | |||

| This complaint is on behalf of my father. robert mulcahy sr. he owns a 2005 chrysler sebring (touring) auto. i don't have the vin number, but could get it. he was just involved in an accident that had him impacting another vehicle with the front of his car at or around 35-40 mph. we both find it incredible that neither air bags deployed. does this sound like a normal operation of safety equipment? this accident happened in oak lawn, il., on the 9th of august, 2007. *tr | |||
