#3 of 15 Sebring Airbag by daisy927 Feb 20, 2007 (1:41 pm)
I have an 2003 LXI Convertible - the airbag light keeps coming on and off. I took it to the dealer while under warranty and they found nothing. Now that the warranty is out and they can look it but of course they want to charge $79 just for looking at it. Has anyone else had this problem or have any suggestions on what to do? Sometimes the light will go off but usually stays on for weeks. Replies to this message: leayers (May 17, 2008 5:11 pm) robin_unruh (Aug 12, 2008 9:32 pm)

Replying to: 3003 (Dec 06, 2006 12:06 pm) did you ever get a response to your inquiry regarding the seat belt. I own a 99 sebring conv and this morning my seatbelts locked up and I can't get them loose. Any suggestions? please advise. Thanks,   Gerald

My son has the same problem with his '98 Sebring Conv., the seat belts lock up. If anyone has the solution, please let us know.

#6 of 15 Front seatbelts not working by dempsey9361 Jul 24, 2007 (5:43 am)
The seatbelts in the front of my 2000 Convertible Sebring stopped working. The fuses are OK. Are there any suggestions on how to fix them?

Replying to: olddog7 (Jun 03, 2007 9:56 am) Did you ever find out how to unlock the seat belts? Replies to this message: dempsey9361 (May 18, 2008 3:09 am)

Replying to: 3003 (Dec 06, 2006 12:06 pm) Go to www.corvairkid.com/sebring to learn more. The belt is electrical. If you have power, the belt will come out. No power, no extend.
#9 of 15 sebring driver seatbelt problem by hightech24 Jul 30, 2007 (7:26 pm)
The cause of the driver seatbelt problem is due to the way some Chrysler clown routed the harness.   I bought a used 96 JXI with a non-working driver seatbelt and discovered after ripping out the center console, that the cause was a shorted harness.   The harness is routed in-between the 2 piece seat track and over time will shortout to the rail. This will not blow the fuse, because in the control module they have a current limiting resistor built in.   Solution is to cut the harness and splice the matching 4 wires back together.

Replying to: olddog7 (Jun 03, 2007 9:56 am) Hey, I had the exact same problem! Except mine was the front passenger side. I dont kno if you had already corrected the problem, I brought mine into a garage and they said that i need to bring it into a body shop! BS I fixed it myself, it takes some time and a little frustration but well worth it than paying to get it fixed. What the problem is is that the release spring gets jammed inside the controle. You have to un hook the seatbelt at the base of the seat, unhook the material, mine was cloth seats, and pull the material up and over JUST where the seat belt comes out of the seat, there will be a screw to take off the cap, undo it all take it apart, u will find the spring put it pack in the right area, and your good to go. It takes time but worth it Replies to this message: zillinsky (Sep 27, 2007 4:42 am) tedebear (Sep 27, 2007 6:57 pm)
#11 of 15 How safe is the sebring? by zillinsky Sep 27, 2007 (4:42 am)
Replying to: sebring08 (Sep 12, 2007 8:33 pm) Hey guys, I was seriously considering buying the new '07 sedan, but then I heard this disturbing incident from my friend. He had got the '07 limited edition and somehow bumped into a tree. The driver-side air bag did not even come off!!!!   Is that one stray incident or does the Chrysler quality issues still persist??

Replying to: zillinsky (Sep 27, 2007 4:42 am) How fast was the car moving when it bumped the tree? Airbags are designed to only deploy at a certain speed or greater. Something similar to a low speed parking lot bump probably wouldn't cause it to go off.   It does go through a checklist when you start the car. If the computer senses that the airbag circuit is faulted the airbag light in the instrument cluster stays on.   I haven't heard about any issues with the Sebring and failed airbag deployment. You might see if a Google search turns up anything.
