I HAVE CALLED THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION ABOUT THE DRAINING HOLES OF MY SEBRING AND THEY HAVE SAID THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I'VE ASKED A COUPLE OF PEOPLE AND THEY SAID THAT THE HOLES ARE TOO SMALL. MY CAR WILL GET DESTROYED AT THIS RATE. WHEN IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM AT THE DEALER THEY THOUGHT IT WAS FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP OR THE SEALS OF THE WINDOWS. NOW I KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT THEY SAY THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ANYMORE.
