Sebring Convertible Stalling Problems

Chrysler Sebring Convertibles are reliable vehicles but they reportedly can develop stalling problems at around 90,000 miles. After the car has stalled and the driver waits a few moments, the Sebring can start again and run well. This is a problem that can be difficult to diagnose. The problem is related to the flow of gasoline to the engine, possibly involving the fuel pump, according to Edmunds.com.

Check the Fuel Pump
Check to see if the fuel pump is functioning correctly. If the engine is starved for gas, it will stall.
Cause of the Stalling
Look for corrosion on the outside of the fuel tank. If the tank is corroded, pieces of metal can flake off the interior of the tank and clog the intake to the fuel pump. This debris and the resulting blockage can starve the engine of gas and will cause your Sebring to stall.
Solution to Stalling Problems
Replace the fuel pump if it is not functioning correctly. Check the fuel filter for blockage from debris as a result of fuel tank corrosion. If the intake is clogged with debris, the fuel line must be flushed and a new gas tank installed.
