AIR BAGS
"TAKATA RECALL" THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON FREQUENTLY. MY DAUGHTER ALSO HAS A SEBRING CONVERTIBLE AND HER DOES THE SAME THING ONLY IT IS A 2002. THIS SEEMS MORE THAN A COINCIDENCE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLES ARE IN MOTION. SOMETIMES A WARNING SOUND HAPPENS AND SOMETIMES NOT ON BOTH VEHICLES.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMING ON 1-2 TIMES A MONTH. DOES THAT MEAN THE AIR BAGS MAY SUDDENLY DEPLOY WHILE I AM SITTING AT A LIGHT, OR NOT DEPLOY WHEN INVOLVED IN A CRASH? MY SECOND CONCERN IS THAT MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS STARTED DIMMING AND EVENTUALLY WENT OUT ON THEIR OWN. I CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT ANY MORE.I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND THINKING IT WAS A SIMPLE FUSE PROBLEM. NO, IT HAS TO DO WITH THE MECHANIC REMOVING THE DASHBOARD AND GOING INTO THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BOX AND REPLACING SIMETHING IN THERE. I HAVE BEEN QUOTED $350.00-TO 375.00 DOLLARS.CANNOT AFFORD THAT. MY NEW PROBLEM: DRIVING HOME, GETTING READY TO BACK UP MY DRIVE WAY, THE CAR IS RUNNING HOT, WHEN I WENT TO SHIFT FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE,THE CAR CUT OFF.HAD A HARD TIME TAKING THE CAROUT OF REVERSE TO PARK. LIKE IT WAS STUCK OR JAMMED.MY NEIGHBORS CAME OUT TO HELP PUSH IT OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET AND THE FRONT WHEELS WERE LOCKED. THE MEN EVENTUALLY GOT IT PUSHED TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET. THE CAR STARTS AN RUN S WITH NO PROBLEM MY MECHANIS TELLS ME IT IS THE GEAR SHIFTER CABLE US BROKEN. I THOUGHT TOSE WERE MADE TO LAST IN A CAR. MY CAR IS NOW LOCKED IN PARK UNTIL I CANGET THAT FIXED. AS A SENIOR ON A FIXED INCOME I CANNOT AFFORD TO DRIVE THIS OLD CAR I HAVE SADLY PAID FOR.

MAYBE SOMETHING WITH THE FUEL. WHILE CAR IS STOPPED, IT WILL SUDDENLY JUMP. IF I DIDN'T HAVE MY FOOT ON BRAKE THE CAR WOULD TAKE OFF.THE ENGINE SPEEDS UP WITHOUT ME STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR SUDDENLY STALLS AND SHUTS OFF AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES. OVER THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF. I DON'T UNDERSTAND ABOUT PICTURES. THERE ARE NO PICTURES

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY THE ENGINES SUDDENLY SHUT DOWN BUT RESTARTED WITHOUT AN ISSUE. LATER THAT DAY THE RED WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE STARTED TO HAVE NO POWER AND THEN STALED I WAS ABLE TO MOVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SAW THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR LIGHT WAS ON (WITCH I LOOKED UP IN OWNER MANUAL. WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED AGAIN AND DROVE IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO TESTED IT AND SAID I NEEDED A THROTTLE BODY.T HAT WAS REPLACED NOW 4 DAYS LATER I WAS ON A HOV LANE DOING 65 LIGHT CAME ON ENGINE SPUTTERED BUT DIDN'T STALL ARRIVED AT DESTINATION WHEN I GOT BACK IN CAR LIGHT WAS OUT AND CAR STARTED. DRIVING HOME I HAD TO PULL OVER SEVERAL TIMES WHEN LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED . MY CONCERN IS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ESPECIALLY WHERE I LIVE THERE ARE LONG TUNNELS I TRAVEL THROUGH HOPEFULLY IT DOESN'T DO THIS TO ANYONE DRIVING THROUGH THEM AND ANYWHERE THAT WOULD DEFINITELY CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT , THE INITIAL REPAIR TO REPLACE THROTTLE BODY WAS $271 AND AN ADDITIONAL $88 FOR SAME ISSUE NOW THROTTLE PEDAL NEEDS REPLACED COST AT THIS TIME UNKNOWN
