2007 Chrysler Sebring mileage at failure

276 of the 337 complaints on file for the 2007 Chrysler Sebring give the vehicle's mileage when the problem happened.

Mileage at failure by component, from owners' complaints to NHTSA
Component	Median	Middle half	Based on
Electrical System	Median 75,000 miles	Middle half 50,000–105,000 miles	Based on 94 complaints
Engine	Median 55,000 miles	Middle half 35,000–90,000 miles	Based on 65 complaints
Air Bags	Median 60,000 miles	Middle half 40,000–95,000 miles	Based on 50 complaints
Power Train	Median 65,000 miles	Middle half 35,000–80,000 miles	Based on 32 complaints
Vehicle Speed Control	Median 50,000 miles	Middle half 45,000–90,000 miles	Based on 34 complaints
Fuel/Propulsion System	Median 90,000 miles	Middle half 50,000–125,000 miles	Based on 32 complaints

A component's median is its 50th percentile, and its middle half runs from its 25th to its 75th percentile.

Owners give the mileage themselves, often as a round number, and NHTSA doesn't check it. A complaint that names several components counts under each one, and mileages that can't be right, such as 999,999, or 50 miles on a five-year-old car, are left out.

These figures describe the complaints owners filed. They don't predict when a particular vehicle will have a problem, and vehicles that never had one aren't counted.

NHTSA defect investigations

NHTSA's investigations file lists the 2007 Chrysler Sebring in 1 investigation. Audit Queries and Equipment Queries are administrative investigations: they look at whether companies complied with federal vehicle safety requirements, such as reporting, recall and certification rules, not at a possible vehicle defect. A listed model year means only that an investigation names it; it says nothing about any particular vehicle. An open investigation is not a finding that a safety defect exists, and NHTSA can close one without a recall.

ODI #11658731

Incident: May 4, 2025 · Filed: May 4, 2025

I've had to replace the battery in this 3 times. Alternator 1. And Throttle Body Position Sensor twice. And now it's all starting to act up again. Car stalls, no reason, all dashboard warning lights flash and it stalls. No dashboard lights at night. Occasionally they flicker. Windshield wipers either won't work or won't shut off. Front windows are unusable, the track broke and back windows don't have power to make them work. Airbag and abs lights always flashing on dash and warning bell goes off all the time. Now my High beam wires have completely crumbled and radio takes 5-10 minutes to come on. Obviously a major electrical issue. I've lost my job thanks to the "reliability" of this money pit. Owned 3 years, problems began then. Today all lights are flashing, the air starts blowing high, wipers go on. I stop at light and it shuts off. Had to push off busy road. Waited half hour and it started, but now check engine, air bag, throttle body and seat belt lights all on. Very slowly, with many breaks, drive home & car smells like burning rubber. Visually can't find source. All fuses are good, and brand new battery last week.

The vehicle was repaired but the failure reoccurred. The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 175,000.

ODI #11486518

Incident: September 25, 2022 · Filed: September 26, 2022

There were 7 recalls on my make, year, model vehicle. Three of which were Brakes, Air Bags, and the TPMS tire monitoring system. Other body parts, doors and hood releases had recalls along with hvac/air conditioning systems. Radiator/fan motor failures. Doors flying open during transit. The ABS control module could cause the brakes to lock-up during braking. Shorts from unused connectors for the computer/TPMS system/brakes and air bags have been causing many unpredictable breakdowns. Some predictable, from past records, state recorded Instances from 180,963 vehicles that just failure of the TPMS monitor system has already caused engine no start, dead battery, Inoperable cruise control, remote start system, engine stalling which could cause a "crash without warning". This was what i read on the www.autoblog site concerning this vehicle. I contacted the Chrysler Recall Center and the site says the dealer's techs would seal the wiring "free of charge", and to replace the front seat track position sensors "free of charge". The recall center said they wouldn't do any repairs at their "free of charge" policy for ME. They said that I would have to pay out-of-pocket, when the site says they already serviced 180,963 vehicles "free of charge". I'm broke and on fixed income. Why are they being so unfair. From what I heard, and I could be wrong, but I was made to believe that there is no expiration date for recalls. If they already state online, some of the recalls could cause a "crash without warning", why would they refuse me? This happened yesterday to me. The Check TPMS System warning notice appeared, along with the Air Bag Red warning light at the top of the speedometer, while I was driving. The tire pressure screen appeared showing the tire pressure of the four tires. They are all fully Inflated. The Air Bag red light came on/off a few times, while driving home and the tire pressure screen remains on all the time. I don't want an accident.

Incident: November 1, 2021 · Filed: March 31, 2022

The contact had taken the vehicle to a certified mechanic who determined that the clockspring was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 150,000.
