Summary:
High Price Junk
Faults:
My engine blew at 36,000 miles.
General Comments:
The Chrysler corporation was not very helpful when it came to repairing the vehicle. The did pay $4,500 of the $6,000 but the dealer couldn't get the parts for two weeks and they would not provide us with a loaner car or rental car.
The people I talked to on the phone were not very helpful and very rude on the phone.

Summary:
Junk, really high dollar junk
Faults:
Head gasket blew at 43,000 miles despite impeccable service record with receipts. Naturally, it had a 3 year/36,000 mile warranty. Had to have the door weatherstripping replaced at 20,000 miles. Fuel injector went bad at 4,000 miles.
Up till it quit, it was a great car.
General Comments:
Lots of room, great ride, handled well.

I also own a 2001 LX, the only problem I've had was the oil light coming on at idle. I thought for sure it would be a $1000.00 oil pump replacement job. Luckily a mechanic overheard my conversation with the service person, and was able to tell me that there was a service bulletin that applied to vehicles equipped with the 2.7l engine that stated "with a hot engine the oil pressure light may be on or flicker on at idle." To fix this problem you need to buy a wire terminal/vent pt#05017800AA. It connects to the oil pressure switch connector to reduce the heat at the switch by having the heat travel up the wire. I wonder how many people got suckered into replacing their oil pumps when it wasn't the problem, and the repair shop added the wire terminal/vent to cover it up. I also recommend switching to synthetic oil to prevent any sludge problems. Synthetic oil will not bake at high temperatures to create the sludge. It may be a bit more expensive, but with the poor track records the 2.7l engines have, I'd say it's worth it.

Summary:
A large, comfortable, luxurious vehicle at a price which can't be matched
Faults:
My Concorde has been taken to the shop for only a couple of minor "tweaks" such as a slight vibration in the front wheel and static in the radio. Both were fixed with no problem, and the dealer even provided a rental car while it was being fixed.
General Comments:
This is my fourth Chrysler vehicle, and my second LH series car (previously, I owned a 1996 Dodge Intrepid). The interior room, handling, ride, and solid construction can't be beat in this price range.
This generation of LH series vehicles is a quantum leap ahead of the originals, and that's saying a lot for a class of cars that set a new standard in US auto making when introduced in 1993.
