1999 Chrysler LHS review from North America
"I prefer My LHS to my wifes' Cadillac Sedan De Ville"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electric cooling fan failed at 125,000 miles.
Water pump failed at 75,000 miles. Replacement cost was limited to the pump itself because I had told the repair agency to replace the water pump when they replaced the timing belt (60,000) They did not replace the pump because they said that it looked good. When the pump failed, they honored their error.
General comments?
This is the finest car that I have owned.
The car handles very well, accelerates well, and has been extremely trouble-free.
I can drive 600 miles and stop only for gasoline, and arrive without a back ache.
22.5 mpg overall, and 27 on the highway.
I keep a logbook where every penny is recorded. Very inexpensive to operate this vehicle.
I am 6'1" and keep the seat almost all the way back. I can then get into the back seat and have ample room. Amazing.
Huge trunk space, I can lay a large garment bag down flat without folding it.
