2000 Chrysler Cirrus LXi review from North America
"I love the car. I hate the problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Within 24 hours of us purchasing this car it had to be towed back to the dealership because the radiator was leaking. It had not been welded together properly at the manufacturer.
The button to turn the air conditioner on and off with broke and had to be replaced.
The electric motor for the rear passenger window went out and had to be replaced.
Fuel injectors 1, 3, and 5 went out and had to be replaced. Within a couple of weeks 2, 4, and 6 had to be replaced.
One of the motor's sensors had to be replaced. (Forgive me I am not positive on which sensor.)
My seats are leather. My backseat has coming undone at the seam. It is undone now about halfway down my backseat.
My car is now in the shop, after breaking down and being towed 3 different times, because my transmission needs to be replaced. It will cost more to overhaul it than to replace it so I am now going to be purchasing a re-manufactured transmission to put in me 2000 Chrysler Cirrus LXi.
General comments?
As far as my car, for some reason I love the car itself.
When I purchased the car I had looked at tons of other cars, but when I sat in this car it just felt like me. I like the car so well I guess I hate to admit that it has been a really BIG headache. And let me assure you if a car can give someone with blood clots on their brain a headache worse than normal that is a really big headache.
