1999 Chrysler Sebring Convertible JXI review from North America
"Excellent fun-in-the-sun automobile for the the average person"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tie rod ends needed replacing at 67,000 miles.
Starter relay went out at 50,000 miles.
Replaced brakes and rotors at 55,000 miles.
Also cracked the vanity mirror on the driver's side, which is probably due to the design of the sun visors.
Doors make a nasty creaking sound when opened.
Other than standard maintenance, that's it.
General comments?
This car is surprisingly big for a convertible, 2 adults and even 2 passengers fit comfortably in this car.
The interior has held up well, and the roof hasn't leaked at all, even in bad storms and thru car washes. Some parts in the interior feel very cheap, like the door trim and speaker grilles.
Infinity sound system flat out sounds awesome!!! Do not get one of these autos without it!!!
The steering is very vague on center, and the V6 has sufficient power, but it dosen't feel overly powerful at all so this car will not be confused with a sports car! The suspension soaks up bumps pretty good in this car too, which is different from the first years of this car.
My car's colors are dark metallic gray, black canvas top, and dark gray interior and is a downright good-looking vehicle, even if it is 5 years old.
