1997 Chrysler Sebring Convertible JXi review from North America
"Dependable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Most recently, water pump and timing (145000 miles).
Rotors at 80,000 miles.
Door hinge first year (faulty recall).
Park brake interlock (recall recent).
Shift cable (snapped, recalled in 2nd year).
General comments?
In my opinion, a reliable car. I place almost 4500 miles on it a month due to my work, and no major problems (look at my mileage)!
Excellent handling in all weather.
Cheap labor, limited problems.
V6 engine more reliable than the JX 4 cyl.
