Always Problems
I have had the car for 10 years and although I only have 65,000 miles, I wish I could find a way to get rid of it. This has been one of the best performing cars I have owned but there is always something wrong with it. About 4 years my A/C went and the cost is approximate $2,000 which is what the car is worth. Most of the interior lights don't work, head light switch need to be changed annually, window motors, transmission sensors and the list goes on. Car is only good for the 4 miles I drive daily to the train station.
Chrysler's Flagship?
The car was everything I wanted except reliable. At 76900 miles and 3 years of ownership I am disappointed in this car's reliability. Under warranty a) Driver's side window motor replaced 3 times. b)Remaining three window motors replaced twice for same reason. c) Speed sensor for the transmission replaced twice for failure. Out of warranty repairs: a)Speed sensor for transmission 3rd time. Lasted 30,000 miles this time. So not covered by Dealership standard 1 year or 12,000 mile warranty. b)fuel pump module due to failure. Did you know that it cost $300 just for this device. Labor and tax extra.

First Chrysler
Great looking vehicle, gets plenty of nods. I was filling up at a gas station and had someone pull in just to tell me they loved the car. Reliability and strange qwerks are a concern
I own two of them
This is the only car in my life that I bought a second one of. Both are 1999 models and I bought them both used from original owners about 5 years apart. The most comfortable driving car I have ever owned by far. The same problems in both such as speed sensors going bad at the front of the transmission. Between the two cars I have replaced 4 of them. Over all I would call them very reliable. As of 10-09 one has 199,000 miles on it (and still going strong) and the other has 88,000 miles on it. A very stylish car. When I take cross country trips or any trips where I drive more than an hour I ALWAYS turn on the heated front seats. You would be amazed at how much better your back feels.
the best
the only thing wrong with this car is the cheap goodyear tires that came with it. They are noisy as can be. Replace them and the road noise goes away. I have 45000+ miles and only oil changes!
