I was not informed of a recall and me and my son were in the vehicle driving and it started hopping almost as if it had hydraulic. I told my son to fasten his seat belt considering we were just leaving the store and pulling onto a busy highway. It continued to wobble and I sped up to get off the hwy and then hen the jumping real high and hard began I was going maybe 45 mph and the axle or ballpoint had snapped causing the car wheel to lock up and cause me to run in the ditch luckily no one was harmed but we were very interested much so shaken up.. I had no issue out of that tire or ball joint before and I am needing to know what I need to do to start my investigation... me and my son are happy no one was injured too bad.
There was a recall that began on January 28, 2011 for bad ball joints. I bought the car in Dec 2010 in between recalls 2009 -2011. Never got a recall notice for this. On November 16 th 2012 my ball joint broke my car went out of control almost hit two phone poles had my family in the car. Likely we were not hurt or killed. Chrysler needs to step up and fix my car for putting bad ball joints on it. This is not the first time there was a recall on this in 2001-2009-2011 can you please help me to have Chrysler fix my car.
There a recall on 10-13-2009 for bad ball joints. I bought the car in 12-2010 never got a recall notice on ball joints. On Nov-16-2012-we were driving with my 9 yr old and 10 year old with no warning the ball joint broke on driver side wheel. Car went out of control we almost hit two phone poles the car went into a field. The wheel is now hanging off car not driveable. Nobody was hurt it could of been worse. Will Chrysler still have honor this recall to fix my car being the recall was 3 yrs ago if I knew there was a recall I would of had this fix.

Yes I, have a 2000 Chrysler Sebring and I bought it when it had 20,000 miles on it and have had several issues that concern me about driving the car. The steering wheel has shorts in it to where most of the time the horn and other stuff don't work on it. The second issue is that the passenger airbag is about to pop it has came out alot and at any time the airbag can pop.
