good deal
I purchased my 95 just over 50K on the "O", ourside general maintance, the only repairs I had done are, new batt and freeze plug. Just put my first set of tires & align on @ 88K miles. Mechanic says car looks good.
never buy a chysler cirrus
I bought my cirrus at 32,000 mi. The dealer wouldn't come down on the price, but I loved it (the look of it) so much I didn't care. I've learned a huge lesson!!! The exterior is beautiful, but the mechanics of this car suck!! I had to replace the transmission soon after I bought it! It was in the shop all the time!! The front end was a mess! cv joints always gave me problems. Don't judge a car by its cover!! Now its broke down and I still owe $5000 to my bank!! I'm currently looking for a reliable car!!!
Transmission Problems
I currently own a 1995 Cirrus with 92,000 and have just began to experience a problem leaking around the front seal. Since I owned the car, I had to replace the water pump and know the front seal. Overall this car is very reliable. If anyone is currently shopping for a Cirrus I would recommend the purchase. My experience has been very positive.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS CAR!
What has been replaced so far: Headlights 12 times in 2 years Transmission Keyless entry remote twice Brakes seven times in two years Rotors Struts (2) Tierods (2) CV Joints (2) Five sets of tires in two years Exhuast Fuel Filter Alignment three times in two years Intake manifold gasket I do not drive this car hard, i take good care of it, this car is a money pit! If you think the looks of this car will grow on you, they won't. Not to mention its below adverage crash test rating. This car will leave you on the side of the highway at 2am. STAY AWAY!
Going to the poorhouse
I bought this car used with 50,000 miles, thinking I had found myself a good deal. In the past year and a half, I have already put into the car nearly $3000 for various things from the cylanoid pack, a computer part, front and rear brakes, rotors, etc. Every month this car presents a new problem. I take very good care of my car, keeping all scheduled maintenance, oil changes, etc. I would not wish this money pit on my worst enemy.
