VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | 3/7/2004 - PALM CITY, FL
MY 2004 SEBRING CONVERTIBLE HAS MADE TWO DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT NOISES: 1ST AT ANY SPEED WHEN I RELEASE MY FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL I GET WHAT I CALL A CRICKET SOUNDING NOISE - VERY ANNOYING. 2ND AT SPEEDS OF 70 MPH AND UP I GET WHAT I CALL A WHISTLING SOUND THAT IS ALSO VERY ANNOYING AND STAYS ON WHEN I USE CRUISE CONTROL. I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE AT MASSEY YARDLEY, HOBE SOUND, FL ON AT LEAST 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND GONE FOR TEST DRIVES WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER. HE RECOGNIZES THE PROBLEM TRIES TO FIX IT TO NO AVAIL. FINALLY HAVE HAD CHRYSLER LOOK AT THE PROBLEM - THEY ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM, BUT TELL ME I HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT. I AM GOING TO ARBITRATION SHORTLY.
