1994 Chrysler LeBaron LE Sedan review from North America
"A high-mileage gem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The fuel line rusted out (not a really big deal).
My battery went dead.
The serpentine belt came off 3 times.
The transmission has just recently began locking into 2nd gear, and staying, or trying to shift and shifting into no gear. (When you press the gas it is like you are in neutral.)
The seats have started to wear, but this is to be expected.
The oil leaks out very badly.
The alignment was seriously horrible after hitting one bump out of the dealer lot.
The front end drive system had to have major re-hauling directly after purchase. (New tie rod ends, ball joints, entire braking system, etc... $600.00 worth)
After 9 years, the paint, due to being white, is chipping and peeling away, and PA winters have made it rusty! (However, this is to be expected.)
Car radio burnt up in December... wouldn't eject a tape.
All of these to be expected with a high-mileage car.
General comments?
All in all, and with all the miles on this car, it has been pretty good to me.
It has been a joy to drive, with plenty of zip and performance.
I suppose the only thing wrong with the car is that it has had a few problems, which are hard to deal with when you have only one car and live over 10 miles away from your job!
I like the trunk space and the roominess of the interior... 5 adults can fit very comfortably in the car. In terms of inside compartments, they are virtually non-existent, but you can buy compartments at Wal-Mart to remedy this.
