1989 Chrysler LeBaron review from North America
"Great first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leaky radiator had to be replaced.
Engine knock.
Air conditioning leaks Freon.
Idles incredibly high at times (sometimes as high as 2000 rpm) which wears down the brakes.
2 back windows and power mechanism had to be replaced (300 bucks a piece retail!!!!)
General comments?
Great overall car, and was probably a dream in its day. Car will probably only like 1-2 more years, American cars just aren't built well enough.
