Have a 1996 Sebring convertible we just bought - cruise control light will come on but won't engage - any idea where to start?
Have intermittent problems with it starting - has only happened with a cold start - it turns over but it won't start. Later in the day it will start. I bought the car from a friend and she said the fuel pump had been replaced in December. It also eats CDs. I put one in and it won't come out. Do I need a new cd player?

Make sure your battery connections are clean and tight. Could be malfunctioning EGR, spark plugs, sensors going out, but I'd start with the battery.
It also eats CDs. I put one in and it won't come out. Do I need a new cd player?More than likely you will need a new one. All the more excuse to buy a new CD player!

Thanks again - that gives a place to start!
