1999 Chrysler Sebring Convertible JXI review from North America
"DON'T even step in one... it will probaly kill you"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Where to begin...
Rain flooded the car thru leak in roof... destroying the Radio first week I bought it.
The brakes no matter how much you fix them will always be soft.
Front axle snapped in half... almost killing me 78,000.
New brakes twice.
Shocks and struts 3 times.
Transmission is on it way out since 90k miles.
The top gets very nasty and ripped apart in weather.
Leather seats are stained.
Check Engine light comes on every 5,000 because of emission problems.
General comments?
This car is very attractive to drive... but very unreliable and expensive to fix. Powerful engine, but no pick up on highway... Smooth ride, but it will bankrupt you with repairs... they are horrible.
