1998 Chrysler Sebring Coupe lxi review from North America
"This car is just like every other, sometimes it needs some TLC."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The door panels will fall off if they are not repaired under warranty. EGR valve went bad. Had to replaced fuel injectors. Door mounts went bad on drivers side. Rims on car are garbage. They original rims are faulty. I replaced my rims with the money which was won in a class action lawsuit against Chrysler in 2006.
General comments?
I bought this car brand new and still drive it today. I have maintained this vehicle myself with the exception of any warranty work. The only problems that were pricey were the front lateral control arms which can run $300 per side. If your car has a thump when you hit a bump, most likely your sealed ball joint is bad and you can only replace that by replacing the whole control arm. If you get a check engine light for misfire in a random cylinder and you check all the obvious, then I suggest changing your fuel injectors. You can get a rebuilt set for less than $200 on the net. It's about a 4 hour job. The fuel injectors plagued me for about 10 months. If anyone knows where I can get cheap exhaust pipes for this car please let me know.
