1996 Chrysler LHS review from North America
"Great car, major problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
AC never did work properly. Dealer tried to fix, but did not work properly.
Front Alignment fixed at 140k followed by suspension problems.
Leather seats seem to have worn out. Small tears and have started to turn greenish.
General comments?
This car was very smooth and reliable for about a year. After some small problems with the engine the car has just never driven properly again.
It has good speed and was smooth until problems with the suspension and alignment. Gas consumtion is fair for a V6, but I would not drive it long distances as I fear of a breakdown.
Overall the car looks like an old man car, but since I'm an old man it suits me. Not a very great looking car, but for its price you can't find much better.
