1995 Chrysler Cirrus LX review from North America
"Classy, reliable, what else would you want?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There were continual brake problems till the dealer went through and replaced most of the major components in the brake system (under warranty). One rear wheel bearing needed to be replaced at 65000km (It took me a couple days to figure out where the unusual noise was coming from) But other than that, the vehicle has been trouble free.
General comments?
The cars interior is roomy with excellent head and shoulder room front and back. I get into other cars and feel claustrophobic in comparison. The trunk is large and the trunk lid opens far enough not to be a danger to ones head. While a split folding rear seat would be nice, the folding back seat allows longer items to be hauled with the trunk closed. The general impression one gets is solidity, the doors close with a reassuringly firm feel, and there are very few rattles. The handling is typically of Chrysler vehicles, solid, dependable and stable in emergency maneuvers.
My one big complaint with the car is it's anemic headlights, upgrading to an aftermarket high output bulb helped, but it's still a bit limited on those dark rainy nights.
