1998 Chrysler Sebring Convertible JXI review from North America
"This is the most enjoyable car I have ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I also have had the 20A fuse blow when trying to start the car. I had the starter checked out at a local auto parts and it was fine. Soon discovered that it is the small wire shorting out that runs from the computer to the starter that is causing the problem. Since it was in the main wire harness, I rerouted a new wire and have not had any more problems.
The volume control on the stereo is hit or miss as to whether the volume goes up or down. I am going to replace the stereo so it will no longer be an issue.
I did get a recall for the anti-freeze causing the freeze plugs to rust, about a year after I replaced them.
General comments?
I purchased a 1998 Sebring Convertible JXI new in 1998 and have loved it since the first time I drove it. I love the take off power and the way it seems to just glide effortlessly down the road at 75 mph with plenty of power to spare.
