1996 Chrysler Concorde LX review from North America
"Great car until you hit 100,000 miles"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car was extremly reliable up until 100,000 miles. The computer went bad and all the power equipment stoped working, fortunatly it started working on its own again after about a day. I find that very weird. Next the cars front end got very wobbly at about 70mph. I had new tires, bushings, and an alignment. This fixed the problem for about 6 months then it all started over. The worst part of this car was the brakes! They squeaked and squeled. Very embarasing for everyone would look when I stoped. I took that car to every place that claimed they could fix noisy breaks. No one could fix them. Anyone else have this problem?
General comments?
When I bought this car it was a big improvment over my 1990 New yorker that had no power options or even a tape player. The seats in this car are like couches. Everyone who sat in the cars back sean loved it especially on the long ride out to California when I moved there. This car was in the brutal Nebraska Winters until 2000 and never faulted, but once it got to California that's another story. I would never buy another Chrysler now. In 2000 I bought a Lexus and another in 2002 and those are just amazing cars. I dontated this to a charity in 2004. Was glad to see it go!!!
