1987 Chrysler LeBaron Station Wagon review from North America
"A pretty good older car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There is something screwy with the fuel injection.
Very hard to start in the winter.
There's something that drains the battery if you don't disconnect it when you park.
It's also missing a shift indicator. An auto shop has been trying to get one for me from the dealership, but none of them have the pointer in it.
General comments?
This is a really tough car because with all that was wrong with it when I got it, it still ran.
So there are a lot of little things that can be a pain to deal with, it just takes some getting used to.
Overall I am impressed with the car because of how tough it is and it does have a lot of nice extras that most new cars don't even come standard with.
