My chrysler sebring's electronic throttle control light goes on for a second or 2 and then goes back off randomly. The car idles high and seem to want to stall out. The vehicle will go into limp mode when the etc light is solid and won't go more than 10-15mph. There is no check engine light and mechanic found no codes to tell what was wrong. I have been on the freeway or city streets when it will randomly go into limp mode and have to safely maneuver away from traffic as vehicle slows with no response from the gas peddle. I have read online that many other people have had this safety problem and no one seems to be able to fix it or find the source. I observed many others spending hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars on different speculated parts that "may" cause this to happen. The best scenario after people replaced different parts was that the vehicle was fine for maybe a week or two but the problems came right back. I hope with your help we can put an end to this unsafe condition of this vehicle and protect the consumers. Thank you for reading this and taking my experience and many others into consideration.

Was reversing out of parking space and engine stalled. This is not the first occurrence. Have previously been driving on the road at 35 MPH and the engine has stalled and the vehicle had to cruise to a shoulder for safety, needed to shut off the car and restart. The first time this happened 2011 I had owned the car for 6 months I was going approx 60mph on a highway and the engine shut off, the car electrical system was fine but the engine cut off. The dealer was unable to duplicate the situation and it has happened several times since. Last week the dealer replaced the battery because they were certain this was being caused by the battery but it is not! Left the car with dealer again as I have a lifetime maintenance plan but if they cannot duplicate they wont fix - right now this vehicle is a hazard and danger to drive.

Engine is stalling once car is cranked. When pressing the brakes to put car in reverse or drive, the car cuts off. Once able to get into drive and try to drive, the car's brakes can not be touched or the car will stop instantly. The car also does stop and go driving like it's pulling on something heavy.

I drove my 2007 chry sebring to a store and pulled into a parking space and attempted to put my car in park, the physical gear shift inside the car was in park but my gage said I was in reverse & my car was stuck in this position. I had this same issue a couple of years ago & was told it happens alot on chryslers & its a little plastic part that keeps breaking with no recall on it & we are forced to purchase the whole shift level when its not needed. Ready to trade it in because it keeps happening.
