2001 Chrysler Sebring Coupe LXi review from North America
"This car is reliable, sporty, and classy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The passenger side electric lock will get stuck sometimes and that person will not be able to get in. This happens very infrequently so I'm not going to get it fixed.
I messed up my passenger side front wheel and strut on a huge pothole. Had to replace front struts and I bought a new wheel and tire from a salvage yard for only $120!
General comments?
There isn't a lot of leg room for the driver and the pedals seem too close to the seat.
The ride is rough on the highway and it seems like I can feel every every bump in the road.
There is plenty of cargo room in the trunk.
The back seat is kind of small and people keep complaining about hitting their head on the light switch.
This car gets surprisingly good gas mileage on the highway. Almost 30mpg.
The only worry I have about this car is the automatic transmission. I waited too long to change the fluid and the mechanic said the fluid was being cooked. Not good. My tranny shifts OK now, but I would advise to get the fluid changed per the maintenance schedule.
