#399 of 408 Re: 96 Convertibe Need Rt Tail Light [goodyrl] by terrichick Aug 10, 2009 (7:41 am)
Replying to: goodyrl (Apr 11, 2004 7:04 am) believe it or not, I found a rear right light on E-bay. The guy also just charged me, 60 dollars for the whole thing, My hubby put it in, and voila. It was fine. (and very inexpensive.)
#401 of 408 Question about 1999 sebring convertible by convertiboy Sep 13, 2009 (5:38 pm)
I am considering buying a 1999 Sebring Convertible JXI with all the goodies. The price is excellent based on Kelly. My two questions: Did the car come with a convertible "boot" to cover the top when down? I do not see any place to attach one but I am surprised it does not have one. 2nd, even thou the price is right, and it has never seen a winter, it has 145,000 miles on it. Am I asking for trouble or could there be lots of life left? Thanks! Replies to this message: jpf (Sep 13, 2009 5:49 pm) convertiboy (Sep 13, 2009 6:07 pm) dklynn2 (Sep 13, 2009 7:17 pm)

Replying to: convertiboy (Sep 13, 2009 5:38 pm) What size engine? If it's the 2.7 V6, I would stay away from it. Replies to this message: convertiboy (Sep 13, 2009 6:07 pm)

Replying to: convertiboy (Sep 13, 2009 5:38 pm) I've got a 98 that I bought in 2000 and I still love it. Came with a boot that has little tabs that slide into the back seat and some snaps (I think) around the sides. I don't use it because it's big and bulky (and heavy), plus the tabs don't stay in too well. I only have 80K miles - 145K sounds like a lot, but (knock on wood) I have had very few maintenance problems with it (just stuff wearing out like brakes, battery, headlights (EXPENSIVE), rear view mirror (EXPENSIVE - but you can find on eBay if you keep an eye out).
#405 of 408 Over heating by topwand Oct 26, 2009 (11:12 pm)
I have an 08 with the small v6 and appox 32,000k a few months back it needed the water topped up. I than had a oil change so if the car needed water I'm sure they would have.  Well I took it on a trip and it ran out of water and I mean ran out of water. I took it in to the dealership .They pressure tested it and couldn't find a leak. Can anyone shed some light on it for me ? Thanks.  Also when it rains with the door opened it drips into the car sometimes onto the seat cushions.The dealership has replaced the rubbers but it didn't help much.Anyone else?

Replying to: topwand (Oct 26, 2009 11:12 pm) The overheating thing i have not had happen to me (2006 sebring conv.touring, V6 with 52k) and the rain dripping in on the seat with car door open, yes that happens on mine. I have some headaches with my car, and they are minor ones. Like the passenger side of convertible leaks onto seat with top down and doors closed. It's not much but still a pain. The Air Bag light and chime come on sometimes after car start and remain on. (but not the chime) Everything still works in it fine.

Replying to: topwand (Oct 26, 2009 11:12 pm) I have a 2002 and do not have that problem. There are different items that can cause this problem. First, a bad pressure cap. The cap is removed when the system is pressure checked and the measurement device takes its place. The other common problems are usually on high mileage vehicles: intake hose collapsing, theromostat sticking, or head gasket leaking. Did you burp the system when you topped it off? It is still in warranty so keep taking it to the dealership. They will have to fix it by the third trip or replace the vehicle under the lemon law.

Replying to: topwand (Oct 26, 2009 11:12 pm) I can't help you on the coolant issue, but for water dripping in when you have the door open when it rains it's something you will have to learn to live with. When water rolls off the roof towards the side of the car there is really nothing on a convertible (soft top) to channel it away from the window. Most hard top cars have some sort of gutter system to prevent this but its hard to do on a soft top convertible. So you will have this problem if you have the door open or window down and its raining hard out.   FWIW changing the rubbers or seals wouldn't help if the car doesn't leak if the window is closed.   Enjoy the ride its a great car.
