| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The car was involved in an accident at 5400 miles, resulting in extensive damage to the front right side. since this time, the car will not stay in alignment. the steering knuckle, hub & low control arm were replaced but the right camber was still out. the upper control arm & upper strut bracket was then replaced, but the alignment was still out. next, the camber was raised but align. was out. the eng. cradel and porta-power cradel was loosened to adjust nonadjustable camber/caster and the toe was set. on 10/01/99 the car (13,100 miles) was again returned to repair and they found the right front camber again out of align. on 8/18/00, the car, with 19,300 miles was returned again, with two badly worn front tires (one flat). again, the car was out of alignment. the manager informed me that these vehicles do not hold an alignment (because they're high performance). is this alignment problem due to the accident at 5,400 miles, or is it an on-going problem with all chrysler sebrings?( dot number: tire size: p/215 55 ) |
