2007 Chrysler Sebring recall: windows, wipers & mirrors
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain vehicles equipped with automatic temperature control (atc) only, the software programmed into the heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) module may cause the windshield defrosting and defogging functions to become inoperative.
💥 The risk
This CAN decrease the driver's visibility under certain driving conditions and result in a crash without warning.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will reprogram the HVAC module. The recall began on january 2, 2007. Owners may contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
