NHTSA complaint: 2007 CHRYSLER SEBRING — AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
I OWN A 2007 SEBRING. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IN A FEW TIMES FOR A PARKING BRAKE LIGHT THAT WOULD COME ON AND FOR THE AIRBAG LIGHT THAT WOULD COME ON. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, I HIT A DEER. ALTHOUGH THE IMPACT OCCURRED WHILE GOING 60 MPH, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. FLAMES WERE COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND ONTO MY WINDSHIELD BEFORE I EVEN GOT TO THE SHOULDER. I WAS FORCED TO JUMP FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE IT WAS STILL IN MOTION, TO ESCAPE THE BURNING CAR. *TR
