Having a Sebring Changes Everything Between the crying and lack of sleep, being a new parent can definitely be a rattling experience. While Chrysler can't take the guesswork out of diaper changing and napping, it can help families find the perfect family vehicle. Below is a list of car buying tips to keep in mind when purchasing a fun, family-centered vehicle, such as the Chrysler Sebring: -- Safe and Sound: Safety features are important to keep in mind when shopping for a family car. All Chrysler Sebring models come equipped with standard advanced multi-stage front air bags, side-curtain air bags and front-seat-mounted side air bags as well as standard anti-lock brakes, a first in the mid-size car segment. And before bringing baby home, parents can have the installation of their child safety seat inspected through DaimlerChrysler's SeatCheck program. By visiting http://www.seatcheck.org/, parents can connect to the closest child safety seat inspection locations in their community. -- Rock-a-bye baby: Seek vehicles with the latest technology, like the Sebring, which has a MyGIG(TM) Multimedia Infotainment System. This exclusive feature allows parents to download baby's favorite lullabies to a built-in hard drive. Once baby is asleep, parents can indulge themselves by tuning into their favorite stations from over 120 channels of digital-quality cross-country entertainment offered on the Sebring through SIRIUS Satellite Radio. -- Baby-proof the interior: Look for vehicles with static-, stain- and odor-resistant seat fabric, like YES Essentials(R) fabric available on the Sebring. This will help parents safeguard their car's interior from the hard-to-avoid formula and baby food spills.
