anyone had this problem with Chrysler Sebring?
A bolt (rear bolt in upper rear multilink control arm) broke for no apparent reason on my 2004 Sebring Touring. The rest of the suspension was fine, and the bolt was only about 5 bucks. Howeverm the labor to drop the entire rear suspension, replace the broken bolt, re-install the suspension,and do an alignment was over 800 bucks. Chrysler says there is no warranty recall (car is over the mileage - just- for warranty). Chrysler shop quoted 9-10 hours, I had a reputable tire and alignment shop do it in 6.4 hours, but its still a pile of cash for a small part. No damage, no hard running, no over loading. What's up, is this a freak occurence, or does it happen to other Sebrings?

It's probably just a freak occurence. Anything manufactured can fail suddenly. The bolt may have been weak from the very beginning but there is no way to tell ahead of time. I haven't seen it on other sebrings and we work on them pretty often.

If it's man made, it's subject to break, tear, or unravel. That's what keeps mechanics on the pay role.

CALL THE SERVICE MANAGER AND TALK WITH HIM AND IF YOU DON’T GET ANYWHERE ASK FOR THE AREA ZONE MANAGER, I HAVE SEEN MANY TIMES THAT THEY WILL DO WHAT IS CALLED A “GOODWILL” FOR THE CUSTOMER.
ALSO TELL THEM THAT YOU PLANNED TO BUY ANOTHER VEHICLE FROM THEM BECAUSE YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE THIS TO YOUR SON OR SOMEONE ELSE, WHICH SOMETIMES MAKES THEM THINK MORE ABOUT GIVING YOU THAT “GOODWILL”.
