One in particular addressed the water in the cabin issue and offered a fix which the dealer did on my car. Prior to purchasing the car I researched here and elsewhere and became aware of the TSB's that were out on my model. Anyone using a pad they can recommend that doesn't make this noise? Dealer says it's normal with the OEM pads - I'm still on the original set with 25K.

They squeak alot when cold but once they warm up that goes away. The breaks on these cars (at least 1st generation)are very noisy when cold. I had noticed some clunking when going from neutral to reverse and sometimes from park to reverse prior to this and this has not happened again. That was fixed with the rebuilding of the transmission valve body. I purchased a 00 JX ex rental with 15K 2 years ago and while I've only logged 10K during that time, I'm happy with the car but I did have it go into limp mode once because of a tranny problem. I never returned to the garage with the others.Īnyone else having problems with their 2001 Sebring sedan? This is my 4th new Chrsler product and I am greatly disappointed. The garage did replace what they said was a defective bolt in the seat, it is only a little better. In addition to the creaking noise in the front end, I notice a clicking noise from the steering column, and a shift in the seat on quick acceleration/stops which I am told is normal for these vehicles. I will be leaving my car for them to drive 'cold' again. Pulling out of my garage in the morning it sounds like an old rocking chair for several miles. Also, the warmer the weather, the less sound is heard. Chrysler said they cannot authorize repairīecause they cannot hear the noise. Within the last two weeks I took it to 2 independent service technicians. In between all that I was told those noises are normal. So far the Five Star Chrysler Dealer service dept has replaced the control arms on the left side, the stabilizer links on both sides, and lubed an area on the tire rod which 'should' have been factory lubed.

Around 4500 miles noticed a loud creaking noise in the front end when turning. Dealt with a rattle under the middle of the car which was remedied after 2 visits by tightening exhaust. It was a quiet ride.for about 2000 miles. I bought a brand new (leftover) 2001 Chrysler Sebring in Nov.
