1998 Chrysler Concorde LXi review from North America
"This type of car is very expensive to own because of the repairs alone"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After two weeks of owning it, the transmission had to be replaced at $1,350.00.
One month later, the gear cable had to be replaced at $300.00.
The tires needed to be replaced at $244.50.
The car over heated at $124.00 to be fixed.
The car over heated again. This time it was just an air pocket in the radiator. It was still about $200.00 to repair.
The car over heated a third time. This time being busted tubes. Again maybe about $300.00 to repair.
During repairs I have spent about $400.00 on rental cars.
General comments?
This car drives beautifully. I love it. It just will not quit having these problems. I think it is time for a new car. Do you think?
