1998 Chrysler Sebring Coupe LX from North America - Comments

My brakes went bad at 10,000, and I've had my rotors replaced 4 times and turned several more times.

My passenger side door panel fell off.

My driver's side door handle broke.

My passenger's side door handle broke before I could even get my driver's side handle replaced. It broke on the outside and the inside.

Handles well, looks good.

Looks are deceiving. Terrible car.

I I have owned a Sebering since 99, so far have been lucky. Except for the fact that both of my door handles have broken and the car hasn't hit 65000 miles yet. I'm afraid I will be replacing them again in no time.

I own a 1996 sebring and my outside passenger door handle broke as well. But other than that, its been good considering it has 165,000 miles now.

I have a 98 sebring lx and the driver door handle broke the passenger side panel fell off and my transmission blew. other than that its okay.

My driver door handle broke and three months later it broke again, passenger panel fell off, but I guess there not defects, I'm just retarded.

My 1999 Sebring driver side door handle has also broken. It was somebody else who was trying to open the door while the car was locked. I thought they had just pulled too hard, but after seeing how many other people have the same problem with this car and breaking door handles, I think it is actually a problem with the part. I went to the Chrysler dealership to determine what it would cost to repair and I was told $100 for the handle assembly and $130 for the labor!!! Also my driver side door panel fell off, and the dealership could not obtain the clips to repair it. It has been hanging on by a thread for several years. I will also note, while I am here, that the automatic mirrors are crap. I have to push the buttons so hard to get them to move that the button actually got pushed into the dash!

I have a 1998 Sebring LXI and have had very good luck with it EXCEPT for a few things. The mirror leaked out on a hot day and ruined my console. I wonder if anyone else had this problem. It is one of those mirrors with the digital compass and button to push for night driving.

I wish I would have done my research on this car ahead of time. I was in ire need of a car and I got a decent deal on my 1998 Sebring LXI...at least I thought I did. I have had it less than 2 months, and had it into the shop three times because it won't start. The last time the dealer said it was a loose battery cable. They tightened it and said that it was fixed. The next day, I drove it to work. When I left at the end of the day, it wouldn't start! I am fed up with this car. My 92 Toyota Camry with 250k miles is more dependable than this car. I wish I would never have bought it. My mirrors also will not adjust without pressing very hard. The door handles haven't broken and the panels haven't fallen off. I guess that I have that to look forward to. I will never buy another Chrysler.

I am 17 years old and the 1998 Chrysler Sebring LXI will be my first car. I was feeling kind of skeptical about it because the muffler is already messed up, but the salesman said that he could fix that for me before I pick up the car. I was just doing research trying to see what this car was really about. Oh yeah, and I'm buying it with the door panel already falling off. The dealer says "all I have to do" (yeah right) is go and get a clip from a Chrysler dealership for it.

None of the buttons, knobs, etc. were worth a crap from the beginning when I purchased the 2000 Sebring Coupe for my daughter.

Then the door handle broke off. Was that FUN to fix. What a crappy design. Not only is the handle junk, but to fix it is almost impossible.

The engineers should be flogged. Took 6 hours for me to fix; I had to FABRICATE three DIFFERENT tools from clothes hangers to get to the clips for the window rods. Totally crappy engineering.

And I was hoping they'd bail out the big three!!! Hmmm...
