On september 30, 2010, i purchased a 2008 chrysler sebring from a dealership in plymouth, wi. the car had 19,204 miles on it. the car also had bridgestone turanza tires. i took my car into tires plus for an oil change at 22,700 miles on the dash. i was told by the technician that i needed new tires, because my tires had 3/32 of tread on them. on january 28, 2011, there was a recall on the car so gandrud installed a auto trans shift lever interlock spring.they also checked tire pressure and set tire pressure. a about a month later, i started having trouble with getting my key out of the ignition switch. having to wiggle the steering column to get it out. i took the car back to gandrud to have them check it and they told me nothing was wrong with it. on may 11, 2011, i took my car in for another oil change and tire rotation. gandrud told me i had 4/32 tread on the tires at 30,026 miles. on june 24, 2011, i took it back to gandrud for another oil change at 33,572 miles on the dash and was told i had 4/32 of tire tread left on the tires. it was not two months later, i moved to milwaukee, wi. on august 18, 2011, amato hyundai was running a special for $12.00 an oil change. i went got an oil change and the technician there told me i needed to get new tires for the car. he stated at this time i had less than 2/32 of tread on my tire. i got a quote from the service guy, decided i can beat that price.set-up an appointment with tires plus for four tires an alignment. unfortunately, i did not make it to get my new tires on the car. on september 03, 2011, i was involved in a car accident on the freeway. i was traveling in far left lane, maneuvering to the middle lane when my steering wheel and my tires were no longer functioning together. i almost lost my life that day, but god so fit for me to live to tell about it. it was the most shocking day of my life. i thank god i am here to make a complaint. these dealerships can't continue to scam us this way. it's not worth our life. *tr

I purchased a 2008 chrysler sebring in august 2007, from darcars brand new, at the time of purchase chrysler was aware of the recall 6months prior and made no attempt to inform me. my car is currently at the dealership being serviced. i took the car in because suddenly the car begin to make a horrible noise, that i described to the customer service representative as a noisy fan belt, that whinnied while driving, but noisiest while in park, odilimg at the stop light. i took the car in and they pretended not to have a clue, and begin to inquire about oil changes and other suggested maintenance, i showed the writer and mechanic my most current maintenance receipt printout along with the previous dates, so they backed away from the indirect accusations that it was possibly my fault. the power steering pump is defected, the pulley froze, and the alternator. the car has only been used to transport my children to and from school and social events, and my transportation to and from work, grocery stores and things of that nature. my mileage is 31,418. they are behaving as if they don't have a clue, but after looking into several recall links, i am appalled that they knowingly sold me a lemon at regular price, with no discount. i have supporting documents. i only received on recall notice, but being the driver and experiencing the problems, there should have been recalls for recall id 07v473000, and recall dated for april 2, 2008 sebring electrical system;wiring recall id 35950. also the recall titled engine and engine cooling;cooling system radiator id#55084. the alternator is an electrical operating piece, it also tie into the recall titled "tire pressure monitor, because one of the consequences include stalling, and battery corrosion, and stopping without notice, which is also caused by a defected alternator. i drive two school age children, two grandchildren, 1month, and 13months old. chrysler put us all in danger knowingly. but still to date acts as if they do not have a clue. *tr
