1997 Plymouth Breeze review from North America
"A bargain for the car that WILL take a beating!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My head gasket was cracked when I purchased the car, but Chrysler fixed it with me only paying out $50.
Front end needed a little love around 85,000 miles, but I considered it to be normal for the amount of mileage. The tie rod ends, calipers and bearings.
Crank sensor supposedly needed to be replaced, but mechanic took me for a ride on that one. Granted the car was stalling, but the was because the three wires that connect the sensor had melted into one therefore causing the problem, well Mr. Fit It replaced the thing, but it kept stalling. So when I got home I finally had a real mechanic look at it and actually fix the problem.
General comments?
I love this car with a passion. I get nothing but compliments from everyone that sees the car.
I think if anyone were to buy a Breeze make it a manual shift. Two reasons, more pep at your fingertips and and a lot more fun than an automatic transmission.
