I thought all airbag connectors were gold plated to prevent corrosion.

Breaking news!

"Chrysler North America has just released an announcement regarding the 2008 Town & Country. Chrysler will recall ALL 2008 model-year Town & Countrys due to what analysts call 'unsatisfying styling'. There is no announcement yet on how Chrysler plans to rectify the problem."

cont.

"Owners of other recent Chrysler products are hoping that their vehicles are also recalled. Jerry Duncan, a 2008 Sebring owner had this to say: "I noticed the problem as soon as I saw the car on the Internet. Unfortunately, I ended up buying it anyway, hoping Chrysler had rectified the problem during the production process. They didn't. Not even the horrifically bad interior quality will make me keep this car". Source: AutoNews.com"

Well done! Chrysler considers recalls the same way toyota considers profit... something ordinary.

I dont think it can get any worse. The new sebring is one ugly 5 series wannabe!
