1999 Chrysler Sebring Coupe LXI review from North America

Driver side door panel fell off twice, passenger door panel fell once.

Both front rims are bent causing two flat tires and constant air leakage.

Computer in the transmission has had to be reset.

Ball joints had to be replaced.

Windows leak in car washes.

Sunroof leaks.

The breaks had to be replaced.

Struts need to be replaced.

Tires became chopped and needed to be replaced because of damaged struts.

Front end of car is too low.

This car has had problem after problem since the day I bought it. I had it two weeks and the driver side panel fell off. I took it to the dealer and had it repaired and the other panels inspected. I was told that the door had been fixed and that the other panels were fine. Next week the passenger side panel fell off. I had that repaired and three weeks later the passenger panel fell off again.

After purchasing the Sebring I had heard that the rims were prone to bend easily. Knowing this I went to great lengths to avoid hitting pot holes, curbs and bumpy roads. Currently both of my front rims are bent so badly that it has caused two flat tires and requires me to put air in the tires almost daily.

The computer in the transmission went haywire and kept the car from shifting out of second gear (I have an automatic).

The ball joints were recalled.

I have to avoid car washes for the most part, because even though the windows are completely closed water leaks in. I took the car in to the dealer and had the seal replaced but, it has made very little difference.

At 20,000 miles the brakes had to be replaced, and I was told to expect to have to replace them every 20- 30,000 miles.

The struts have to be replaced and have apparently "chopped" the tires which causes the car to constantly sound like it has a flat tire. I put four new tires on the car when I bought it at 10,000 miles and now at 38,000 I needed to replace all four again.

All in all, after being a Chrysler owner for almost two glorious years now, I will never in my life time purchase another Chrysler product again. Before my present car I drove a '91 Nissan 240SX with 100,000 miles on it, and didn't have even a fraction of the problems I have had in under two years of driving the Sebring. I miss my little reliable 240SX every time I start the engine of this cursed car.
