1999 Chrysler Concorde LX review from North America
"Overall, it is a nice car to drive, and looks good too."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had the car for 3 months, and have put on 2,000 miles. The right rear passenger door lock motor needs to be replaced. When it locks, there is a buzzing noise. Sounds like the motor is stripped.
I have noticed a slight knocking sound coming from the left front of the car, which occurs when I am traveling over bumpy roads. It sounds to me like it may be a loose strut.
When the brake pedal is released slowly there is a grunting sound that comes from it.
The transmission does not shift smoothly on the low end, when rolling at around 10 mph and then accelerating onto the highway.
General comments?
The car is roomy, comfortable, and handles the road like a sports car.
The brakes are somewhat soft.
I would prefer the larger engine they offer as an option in this car. For its size, it is needed.
However, the fuel economy is very good.
