Faults:

A/C system completely shot. Replaced and failed again in 9 months.

Timing belt.

ABS controller.

Door hinges are shot.

Trunk is rusting badly at the seam.

Power seat frame broke. Bought a new seat and that frame broke too.

Suspension problems, recalled and in the shop right now.

Stereo failed and was replaced.

Really noisy at highway speeds (wind noise) and wipers float off the windshield above 65 mph.

Chrysler dealer service in Watertown, New York is seriously the worst I have ever seen in my entire life. I cringe at the thought of even taking my car there for recalls. I love the car, but would NEVER buy another one from my local dealer. I wish Chrysler would do something about it. I laugh out loud whenever I see the Chrysler 5 Star service commercials. What a joke, best joke I've heard all year. Hey Chrysler, feel free to contact me if you are curious about my story, you'll LOVE it.

I'll be buying a Honda next because I won't go to this dealer.

General Comments:

The 214 HP V6 runs great. I just love being able to put my foot down and go like crazy!

Even though the car has had problems, I still love the way it looks and drives. I wish I could buy another 1993 Vision TSI that was brand new, just not from my local dealership.

Faults:

Transmission had to be replaced.

Air conditioning shot.

Rusting at the trunk seam.

General Comments:

This car is a great performance car, but it was the first year for Eagle, so I understand that they had some bugs to fix.

Faults:

Water pump wore out at 90,000 miles.

Crankshaft sensor replaced at 130,000 miles.

Air conditioner compressor required freon replacement (F-134a) at 100,000 miles.

Thermostat required replacement at 135,000 miles.

Right rear electric window stopped working at 99,500 miles.

At 138,000 miles the automatic transmission is leaking small amounts of fluid (seals).

General Comments:

All in all, this is a very very dependable car. The repairs listed above are nominal and to be expected at the above mileage intervals. The car sips gas despite the fact that I drive with a "lead foot". To do otherwise is to deny the car's excellent performance.

It drives like a thoroughbred, with incredible acceleration for a small V-6 in such a large car. Handling is still crisp, although new shocks would help.

This car has taken my family on nearly a dozen cross country trips with no trouble. At 100,000 miles the rear quarter panel was broad sided by a large pickup truck going 40 MPH, yet the alignment and handling of the car is unchanged. The only mechanical repair required was a new rear strut and rear wheel re-alignment. Although this is an eight year old car with very high miles, I am considering freshening it up and keeping it for the long haul.

Faults:

Air conditioning system - everything compressor, dryer, etc. - shot at 90k.

Automatic transmission shot at 90k.

Power window switches were very flaky.

Both front door hinges were worn out.

Trunk lid rusting at the seam.

LED in the was stereo dead at 80k.

General Comments:

Nice car with terrible quality issues. A clone of the Dodge Intrepid.

Faults:

Alignment, brakes, - both higher than normal wear.

Originally had trouble with starting - wouldn't do it.
