Problems with 2006 Chrysler Sebring POWER TRAIN

Bought the 2006 sebring with 32,000 miles on it, just before the warranty expired. it now has 62,000 miles on it, and it leaking oil profusely. i had my mechanically inclined father look at it, and it appears to be an issue with the crankshaft. as i have been looking online, this appears to be a recurring problem with these vehicles, and worse yet, if it starts to become a problem before the warranty is up, dealers are simply replacing the seal, essentially putting a band-aid on the bigger issue and leaving the expense up to the consumer to deal with. at this time i think i caught it before it got the chance to lock my engine up, i just thank my lucky stars that i had to drop my son off to school on a cold day and had left the engine to idle while i walked him to the door, as the engine only leaks while running. had this not have been the case, i was about to travel to a town that takes over an hour to get to, taking a road with virtually no good places to stop, and many "dead-zones" which would have made getting assistance nearly impossible and potentially dangerous. i am very disappointed and will not be choosing chrysler for any future vehicles, unless this problem is rectified.

Passenger door master switch malfunction, driver window rolled down by itself during ice storm while driving on highway would not roll back up. had to purchase and replace with new switch. faulty rear camber in both right and left rear wheels. both leaning inwards about 12 degrees, ruined 2 new tires, had to spend $670 for camber kit, and $200 for (new) new tires. transmission herky jerky. *tr

This is a 2006 sebring touring, bought with around 33,00 miles. the first night i tried this car, the check engine light came on with them saying they would fix it. it didn't come back on for months...after the warranty was up. i have had this car almost a year and it had a 30 day warranty. i took it back at least once a week for the warranty with them saying they could find nothing wrong. the brakes make rubbing noises, even though i was told they put on new brake shoes and it wobbles, even though they said they calibrated the rotors and fixed them. it jumps when you stop and on take off it just took it to another shop in another town and was told they couldn't find any wrong other than it needed an update and that this should take care of 99% of my problems if not all. after paying out 178.45, it do not take care of the problem. the also told me that i needed a new fuel pump and that one of the problems was it was pumping too much fuel and that this would eventually do damage to other parts of the engine and i would be looking at more than just the fuel pump to replace but they didn't think the car would just quit on me right now, but i was looking at problems on down the road. so now, i am looking at around 450.00 for the fuel pump and labor and still don't know if that is the problem. in july i had about an inch plus water in my passenger rear floor board, after sucking the water up several times, they finally said i needed a new type of drain line on the air conditioner, but come to find out, it had the new line. i did get the line blown out because they said that the air conditioner line getting clogged is a problem. the water has not come back, yet. the air conditioner makes like a hum-hum noise, then it will quit and the car sounds quiet for a few min, and then it starts again. this is definitely a car i am dissatisfied with. i had bought 3 sets of wiper blades and none of them seem to sit on the ...

S10 direct reply- letter to dot from re complaint against chrysler financial and an article from the new york times newspaper *tgw the consumer stated she did not test drive the vehicle when she purchased it. she returned the vehicle within a few minutes because the vehicle was exhibiting a rough ride and it caused her neck problem to flare. the vehicle was leaking transmission fluid and the doors were rusting. *jb
