1997 Chrysler Sebring Coupe LX review from North America
"Overpriced unsafe vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
*Brakes.
*Transmission.
*Axel.
*Alignment.
*I got in an accident (totaling the vehicle) and the air bags did not deploy. I was wearing my seatbelt, but as a result of the shape of the vehicle, I banged my head pretty hard on the windshield. I ended up going to the hospital with a diagnosis of whiplash. The accident occurred while traveling at about 25 mph and hitting a Dodge Caravan in front. The one accident totalled the whole vehicle. The hood was bent in a v-shape, very poorly crafted vehicle.
*dented easily.
*scratched easily.
*interior trims consistently fell off.
General comments?
This car appears to be very sporty, however even with a V-6 engine acceleration was very slow.
The handling was horrible. U-turns were impossible with the turning radius.
The Sebring looks like an Eclipse, but handled like a huge van.
