Safety recall notices and repair campaigns registered for the 2001 Chrysler Sebring in Canada.
On certain two-door coupe vehicles, in the event of a collision that warrants a deployment of the front passenger airbag, the deploying airbag could strike the passenger sun visor if it is in the down position. This could cause the sun visor to detach from its mounting bracket, potentially contacting an occupant, which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will add a tether strap to the passenger sun visor. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2015267.
A failure of this component (airbag) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).

Certain vehicles were built with automatic transmission cooler hoses (in and out) that may not have met specific winner wall thickness requirements in the manufacturing process. Over time, these hoses may deteriorate and leak automatic transmission fluid. Should leaking transmission fluid contact a hot exhaust pipe, a fire could occur. Correction: Dealers will replace the hose assembly for the automatic transmission oil cooler.

On certain vehicles, the harness for the crankshaft position sensor could come in contact with a new protective shield causing a grounded circuit. Prolonged wiring harness contact with the heat shield will cause the wiring insulation to wear and eventually to ground out. This could cause the engine to die out, increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Crank position sensor wiring harness will be rerouted.
