1994 Chrysler LHS review from North America

-Water pump & timing belt replaced shortly after I got it.

-Timing belt tensioner failed 15,000 miles after water pump/belt replacement--crappy aftermarket part?

-Tranny rebuilt at 145,000 miles.

-Rear defogger switch/relay replaced.

-Front struts replaced (original)

-Just replaced O2 sensors (original)

-Tranny is being rebuilt again as I write this review!! (under warranty) Bad rebuild or bad transmission design? Possibly both.

Overall, very satisfied with this car. I am the fourth owner of it, but it seems to have been well cared for. Weak points are definitely the transmission and water pump.

As I've noticed in other reviews, my steering also makes strange noises when the outside temperature is below 20 F. Despite other reviews to the contrary, the A/C is the best I've had on any car. I think it was likely worked on before I got the car. The electrical system has a weird intermittent fault-- sometimes when I shut the car off, the dash lights remain on, and I have to turn the ignition back on and cycle the headlight switch to correct this. Infinity stereo failed, replaced with a friend's newer stereo from a newer Chrysler model. These were made by Alpine for Chrysler in this year--Alpine has had a lot of reliability problems. Very nice handling and performing car overall. I've driven a lot of cars, and despite the quirks, if I found myself in a high speed chase, this one would be on my top 5 list of cars I'd rather be driving. (at least ones that I can afford)
