| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My car, 2004 sebring sedan with 19,000 has had a surging problem for several months. as i,m coming to a stop, with my foot on the brake, the car will surge forward as if i was giving it gas. on 10/28/04, i've had the car examined coon rapids chrysler dealership mechanics and was told they found nothing wrong with it outside of misfires in three cylinders. they said they road tested the car and did not experience what i experience every day during every stop. i was told they reset the pcm as this is what manufacturer recomends. when i left the dealership, i experienced the same surging from the very first stop and all the other stops during the fifteen mile drive home.nextweek i'll take it to another dealer and see if they can fix this. i've noticed that mycarstats.com has numerous complaints regarding this problem and the dealers/manufacturer appears to not dealing with it. i've come very close to rear-ending cars during my travels. i expect the surge and prepare for it but there has to be a fix.*ak |
