1999 Chrysler Sebring Convertible LXi 2.5L from North America

Summary:

Luxury sport car at average car pricing

Faults:

I've had to replace the front brake pads about every 20,000 to 25,000 miles. I do this myself and paid about $20 for the first Lifetime Warranty set, all others have been free.

Both tie rod ends went bad at 75,000 miles. I did this myself for around $80 in parts and then had a free front end alignment the next day while replacing the original tires.

General Comments:

Overall, this is probably the best car I've owned to date.

For an ex-rental car it's been very reliable and has held up very well over 84,300 miles in Ohio.

The only real complaint is that it seems to be a little underpowered, but for the price it's just fine.

I've not had any problems with the top coming apart or leaking.

I looks as good now as the day I drove it off the lot and drives just as well.

1999 Chrysler Sebring Convertible JXI 2.5L V6 from North America

Summary:

It is an inexpensive, flashy, quick car!

Faults:

The only thing I have a problem with is the few drips of water that come in when I am going through a high pressure car wash, but that isn't major, because my brother's brand new Mustang Convertible does that.

General Comments:

When I was 15 I fell in love with the Chrysler Sebring Convertibles. Then by my surprise, my parents bought me one! When I drove it, I was even more in love with it. It is a reliable, fun, quick (enough for a MALE teen), and flashy, I get comments all the time. It's very luxurious for a teenager though. I got the whole enchilada, the all power, leather seats, CD Player, and all of that! But it is a wonderful, fun car!

1999 Chrysler Sebring Convertible JXi 2.5 from North America

Summary:

A disappointment

Faults:

The whole transmission went out at 45,000 miles.

The torque converter also went.

The rear defroster is broken.

General Comments:

I love the looks of the car.

However needing a new transmission at 46,000 is crazy.

The Sebring is not a cheap car and to go through such costly repairs is a financial strain.
