Top-Down Driving Just in Time for Summer! I am the second owner (since February 2005) of this metallic red/black top 1997 Chrysler Sebring convertible. It is powered by the Mitsubishi-built 2.5 liter V-6. I am selling to make room for a Lincoln Town Car I have purchased. For the last year I have used the Sebring primarily as my commuter car to and from work averaging less than 20 miles per day. It currently has roughly 108,500 miles on the clock. I have used Premium gas in it for best performance. The car is mechanically sound and shifts smoothly. Power driver’s seat, power driver mirror, and power windows and door locks, of course. Head lights, tail lights, brake lights and turn signals are fine. The Michelin tires are less than one year old. Inner and outer tie rods were replaced in 2013. The car received a complete front brake overhaul in 2012 with new rotors and calipers. Entire brake system was inspected recently and front pads and rear shoes have plenty of mileage left. A new battery was installed eight months ago and a new alternator installed last month. The A/C compressor was replaced in 2011. The blower and compressor operate, but the control switch to turn on the blower and regulate speed is not working properly. The Riker’s A/C technician confirmed compressor and blower are fine. A replacement switch module from the Chrysler dealer is over $300 but you can get one from the salvage yards for about $50. I have the receipts for all this work. Appearance and Interior The car received a complete premium paint job by Maaco in November 2010 That same month the Sebring received a new, high-quality convertible top. The rear window is glass and is defogging. At that time all new vinyl seating was also installed to replace the cracked and damaged leather. All this came to nearly $2000 in upgrades. All seatbelts work properly. I have used a reflective sunshield to protect the dashboard surface and it still looks new. One or two of the interior shots to show the dash and doors were taken before the new vinyl interior was installed; the front seats had seat covers at that time. The other shots show the newer interior. The convertible top operates perfectly, but I did not use it often so the top shows little wear. The seal is tight along the windshield edge and convertible top. (see photo) Issues The engine has a minor oil leak from the rear main seal, so I just watch the oil level periodically. The cylinder head gaskets are tight with no leaks. Power steering pump and power brake lines were checked just this month. Front passenger power window does not lower. The rear windows work fine. The driver window does lower and raise but the rear guide track is loose and you have to adjust the window in the up position to get a good seal with the top rubber molding. A recent parking lot ding on the right rear bumper removed some paint. There is an electronic module that controls the tachometer and the digital odometer, and this works intermittently. I recorded the mileage last week when it came on. A little humor here is appropriate! The speedometer, gas gauge and coolant temperature work properly. The horn does not work; may just be a bad electrical connection. The original CD player is inoperative. The title is clear and waiting to be signed over to its new owner. I live in southwest Orlando off Dr. Phillips Drive. The license tag has been transferred from the Sebring to the Lincoln. You are welcome to test drive it outside the neighborhood if you bring a current tag. Feel free to email me with any questions. Cash is best for this transaction. No checks. |

Dodge Viper saved from crusher by students, but will it last?
Tue, 16 Sep 2014The saga of the Washington state community college hoping to keep its allegedly pre-production Dodge Viper out of the maw of the crusher is going strong. Not only does the school still have the car, but there's a chance that the college might even get to keep it.
The whole situation flared up in March when the South Puget Sound Community College in Olympia, WA, received a notice from Chrysler Group that requested that the school's Viper be destroyed. The automaker had loaned the muscle car to it about a decade ago to use for educational purposes in its auto tech classes. With the Dodge growing long in the tooth, "it is unlikely that these vehicles offer any educational value to students," the company said in its press release on the matter.
However, the college balked at destroying its Viper, despite the fact it had signed a contract with Chrysler Group to do so. The school further claimed that its car was incredibly special because it was a pre-production example and just the fourth one made back in 1992. Although, as we pointed out at the time, the photos of the school's vehicle showed a coupe that looked like a newer Viper GTS.
DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
Chrysler recalling 31k SUVs and vans
Fri, 06 Jun 2014Chrysler is issuing recalls covering roughly 31,700 vehicles worldwide due to two separate problems. In both cases the company believes that most of the affected vehicles are either still on, or in transit to, dealer lots.
One recall covers roughly 10,700 Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee SRT models from the 2014 model year built between January 16 and April 17, 2014. The SUVs need a software update for the cruise control. It's possible that when the cruise is on and the driver presses on the throttle, the acceleration could last a second after the pedal is released or two seconds for the SRT. Afterward, they return to the speed originally set by the driver.
Chrysler says it isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or even reported incidents of this happening in the real world. Also, in all cases, if the driver presses on the brake, the cruise shuts off. The automaker believes that there are about 6,100 affected SUVs in the US, 950 in Canada, 425 in Mexico and 3,200 outside of North America. The software upgrade will be ready shortly, the company says.
