Chrysler Recalls Sebring for Fire Danger

Take the Lemon TestDo you own one of these potential lemon Chrysler Sebring vehicles?

  • 2007 Chrysler Sebring
  • 2008 Chrysler Sebring

Turns out that the engine’s coolant can be “drawn” into the left radiator cooling fan’s motor connector and that can cause a short circuit and result in an engine compartment fire. Instead of keeping the engine cool, it can erupt into flames? Chrysler admits to knowing about at least 17 engine fires that can be blamed on the defective design.

The problem came to light when a Sebring rental car in Florida caught fire, causing engineers to look over 20 other rental cars sitting in Florida, finding 4 others with fluid in the connector, apparently ripe for a fire. The radiator overflow spout on the recovery bottle apparently can contact the left radiator cooling fan’s ground terminal and that can allow the coolant to enter the electrical connector through “wicking.” The process is similar to how water in a glass can “crawl” up a piece of cloth that is draped over the edge of the glass over time.

The 2.4 Liter equipped Sebrings are the problem cars and the recall includes the Dodge Avenger models in the same time frame because they were all built at the same time. The bad vehicles were built between March 9, 2006 and July 27, 2007 but no one knows how many of the vehicles have the problem.
