No two ways about it, the Concorde LXi is Aces over Kings. Great buy. Awesome ride: sporty but smooth, responsive with pick-up and power to spare. Perfect for family -- plenty of space and cavernous trunk. Well appointed and classy interior with a body that is easy on the eyes with its killer curves. Chrysler nailed it on this one!

I received this car from my Dad after about 5 years of heavy use. Even with the extremely high millage, this car preforms as if brand new. There have been no major repairs to the car (except for the radiator which was my fault) and it is so reliable, even in the coldest of the winter days. When my friends and I go on long trips, we always will take my car because no other car even comes close to comparing to its comfort level! I love this car so much and would have gladly paid twice the price we originally got it for. Thank you Chrysler!

Had two of these cars with the 3.2 never had a serious issue with either one of them. Interior is very curvy, handles like a sports car and loves to be redlined.Even after 400,000 miles was still a darling until someone ran a light and killed her. Awesome car and the only Chrysler i ever loved. And at 32 mpg highway no complaints.
A Nice Car

I own a 2000 Chrysler Concorde, 2.7L engine, gold exterior, beautiful black leather interior, center console, bucket seats, 150,000 miles on the odometer. I purchased this car in 2013 when it had 75,000 miles on it. Pros: Excellent handling, excellent highway gas mileage for a large car (I average 27-28 MPG traveling monthly from Baltimore to Scranton, Pennsylvania, and 30-31 MPG on my return trip. The distance one way is 220 miles.). Plenty of interior room, especially in the back seat. Large trunk area. Beautiful, sleek exterior styling, and the interior leather seats, console, instrument panel, and dashboard are very attractive. Very reliable....I've never had a breakdown of any kind...save for a bad battery and the need to replace a transmission sensor on a previously owned 1999 Concorde. The 2.7L engine provides plenty of power on the highway but is somewhat under powered for city driving. With good tires (I currently have Michelin Primacy P225/60R16) the car is fairly quiet and very smooth on a blacktop highway, but is quite noisy on concrete highways and concrete bridge overpasses. I am hoping that a new set of Michelin Defender tires will lower the road noise on concrete roads. Overall the noise in the cabin is probably about average. Most noise coming from the road, with some wind noise and a slight amount of engine noise. Cons: Limited interior head room for a tall person (I'm 6'-2" tall and must slouch down to see properly). Limited visibility which make parallel parking very difficult. It is very difficult to judge where the front and back of the car are when parallel parking. The transmission will buck a bit if you slow down for a red light, but then accelerate if the light turns green before you come to a complete stop. Consequently I make sure to accelerate very slowly in this situation. (I did have to replace a transmission sensor in my previously owned 1999 Chrysler Concorde because of accelerating before coming to a complete stop). The 2.7L engines are known for having sludge build-up problems so be sure to replace the engine oil every 3000-5000 miles. I use Castrol GTX, an anti-sludge oil. The battery is hidden in the right front wheel well and is very difficult to access. The headlights and bulbs are very difficult to replace. Braking is well below average and feels mushy (I've been told that this is normal but I have my doubts). Overall a very reliable, beautiful, fuel efficient, roomy, and well-handling car if you properly care for the engine and transmission. More specifically, replace the engine oil frequently (due to the sludge build-up problem) and accelerate slowly. Do not accelerate quickly from a stop or before coming to a stop and the transmission should be fine. The overhead cam sensors on these engine will go bad before 100K but can be easily and inexpensively replaced within 20 minutes if you have any mechanical aptitude.
I must've been one of the lucky ones

I've heard nothing but horrible things about the 2.7, yet I've never experienced nearly the amount of hardships anyone else seems to have with this engine. My wife (fiance at the time) bought this car in July '04 with 31k miles on it. It's been nothing short of a workhorse for us. Of course at around 50k miles, the check engine light came on, and looking around online, I found tons of reports of the dreaded engine sludge fiasco, but it seems mine was a later 2001 model that avoided this issue. The light turned out to be for an emission issue that didn't affect how well the car ran. Now, in 2013, nearing 150k miles, I still drive it 60 miles a day with minimal upkeep.

I purchased a 2000 chrysler Concorde over 2 years ago and she's my baby. 100% reliable and this year as most reviews have reflected some years are bad with leaks and so on however the 2000 was the year that they fixed the tranny and lower motor leaks and seemingly fixed the seizing motor issue.
167,000 strong... good bang for the family sedan buck!

The 3.2 liter models were superb to other offerings at the time. If you don't like the exterior design, add a spoiler, and voila! This car is reliable, has never failed me. I have kept with regular maintenance since I received it at 114,000 miles, and the previous owner kept it and recorded it as well. The only major problems I've encountered is the ABS pump failing (not a huge deal) and my frame was warped when I drove over an unmarked curb, causing a clunk I can't eliminate despite all new front suspension. I can't blame Chrysler for a business not marking their curbs. Overall, a great car. I've met owners with 250K on their daily drivers, I'm sure this one will make it!

Mine had very low mileage for the year and as a result somethings are in exceptional shape other things time is not great for so I’m looking at air conditioning replacement and a few other things that don’t age well with time. The car is exceptionally roomie very comfortable and stylish good looks and I understand it’s one of the first cars totally created by a computer as far as optimization of space aerodynamics etc. 3.2 L engine is spirited enough to move the car briskly you might think it’s a luxury sports car of sorts. I find service parts to be reasonably price and the only complaint I could have his gas mileage around town is 15ish. You get the best gas mileage obviously on the highway but mostly because the car is low presents very little wind drag so it doesn’t require the horsepower you would think for car of the size at highway speed. I.e. it’s aerodynamically slippery . Interior is very well appointed and a classy style not soon to fade. Although it has no gps or MP3/booth to othe smart link, find an old cassette adapter and plug in your smartphone and voila....state of the art nav and music plus phone calls lol perfect.

If you get the right color, this car's style/looks will be hard to beat. This is a roomy car with sleak line. Back seat leg room may be largest in its class. The one odd problem that I've encountered was a faulty gas cap. $10.00 for a replacement cap - no big deal. Although I've not had this problem, I've heard that Concorde 2.7 motors can go bad due to sludge. I'm wondering if synthetic oil would be a good defense against sludge. Does anyone know?
freakin great ride!

Great car with amazing miles(30+mpg). Bought it at 107k, drove 55k in 2 yrs now its 160K+. Luv ridin it,gives me gr8 pleasure.I never had any problem with 2.7l engine. Surprised with the reviews about bad engine.I always changed oil n other fluids for every 2500miles.I bought this car with all these probs:A/C not working, doesnt respond to computer for diagnostics Problems with the fuse: inside lights and trunk lid doent work. I dont consider these as major probs until it runs smooth n never leaves me in the middle of nowhere.Apart from these probs its a gr8 machine. I can strongly argue that i will use this for 3 more yrs(200K+). Even now it runs like brand new.

I bought this car May of 06 with only 31K miles on it. Thought I was getting a great value because of the low mileage. NOT! A few days after I drove it off the lot the cam sensors failed and the engine stopped running - leaving me stranded on side of road. It was repaired at a cost of approx. $400, plus the $90 tow. After that it was OK except that it burned oil. Now, at 69K miles the engine has blown! I'm told it is a very common problem with the 2.7 liter V6 engine and Chrysler has a kit to repair it. I'm told it will cost between $1000-$1700 to fix this problem. Although I love the looks of this car, it is not worth the trouble. It is comfortable to drive and has nice lines.V6 is junk!

Purchased this (certified) 2.7 LIT, 2000 Chrysler Concorde w/67,000 miles, in February of 2004. After 2 months front hub assy failed. 2 months after that vibrating engine and oil lite stayed on. Renewed Engine put in. 2 Wks later speed sensors need to be replaced. After 1 year and 3 months renewed engine went out again. This car is just setting up with a car note/full insurance still on it and being paid!

I cannot understand why a huge company like Chrysler produces such a poor product. the 2.7 liter engine is a joke. I have seen so many reviews of people having to replace it, completely ridiculous. I maintain the car perfectly, never drive above the speed limit, never accelerate fast, in others words, I baby it. And at 113,000 the engine goes out and when I am looking around for a used one I have had dealers literally laugh in my face because it is such a common item. In their words they "hardly ever see that engine unless it is blown" thanks for nothing Chrysler.

We received this car from an estate. It was very well taken care of with only 62,000 miles. The car drives and handles great. Interior and trunk space are more than adequate. We've had to deal with some minor weather stripping problems. Then two months ago, the infamous 2.7 liter engine blew because of excessive oil sludge and timing chain problems. Chrysler has hired a company to deal with the engine problem claims. Their compensation is insulting and inadequate. Do not, under any circumstances, buy Chrysler products. I'm very disappointed with how they are taking care of their customers.

I must admit that I initially thought this car was for a senior citizen when I first looked at, when my father wouldn't take it, I kept it and boy am I glad I did. Fuel efficiency is great, it takes 87 gas unlike my Cadillac and the acceleration with the 6 cyl engine rivals that of a sports car. The ride is soft and roomy. I really have no complaints. Nothing has broken down ever, and I've put about 80,000 miles on this car in 2 years and it already had a 100,000 on it when I bought it.

I bought the car in 03 with 67k miles in 07 120k 60k later timing chain went 130k all four struts needed to be replaced and the front hubs were shoot. Now a 167k the transmission axle on the passenger side is loose and and noisy. Father don't buy this car for your daughter's first car to take to college. Other minor issues are door windows move slow and the window control switches won't stay in place. When i bought the car it rode great and still looks great but every 30 thousand i have to put in the shop for a major repair i love the car but i don't think i would buy it again.

Bought the car in 2001 with 60,000 miles already on it. He drove it mainly back and forth to work everyday (100 miles) So it racked up miles quickly. In 2006 he gave it to my sister with 260k who promptly ATTEMPTED to destroy it, she knocked out the bottom of the windshield washer fluid reservoir, crashed it into a ditch, backed it up into another car, and fried the A/C jumping it the wrong way. I got it in 09 with 280k. I still runs...and sprints, beautifully. People rap on the engine a lot and admittedly mines broke two, and interior rod snapped but that couldn't stop this car. It doesn't have quite as much acceleration as I would like but it is a massive car. It also gets 31 mpg highway..

I bought the Concorde exactly 1 yr ago. I was looking for a car for my daughter when I ran into this for $8k, 42K miles at a dealer in mint condition. What a buy! I am comparing this to my wife's Lexus so consider that when looking at my ratings. BTW, my kids prefer riding in the Concorde over the Lexus. If you are looking to buy, CHECK the brakes. Factory rotors are a problem but I knew that and factored it into my purchase price. 4 rotors & shoes cost me $750, be advised. Otherwise, no trouble (15k miles), unlike the other posts. OVER maintain Chryslers, especially the transmission. There is a front differential that gets overlooked. Bang for the buck

I bought this vehicle with 78,000 miles. Aside from the door weather stripping problems this seemed to be a great car. Then at 102,000 the check engine light came on. I was told by Chrysler that the engine was known for trapping oil in the upper engine causing excessive oil sludge. This was the cause of my problems and because of this I had to replace the crank shaft sensor and another I can't name at the moment costing me $650.00. I was also told by Chrysler that I would need a rebuild in the near future witch would cost me $6 ,000-$7,000. This apparently is an existing problem since 1997 with the 2.7 lt engine. I will never buy a Chrysler again. Very, Very disappointed!

This is an all around great touring car that has a luxury feel and is loaded with extras. The leather interior is gorgeous, and the car easily and comfortably holds 5 adult passengers on long trips. MPG is 23 city and 29 hwy if your tires are kept inflated. In the two years I have owned the car, I needed to replace the A/C condensor and the battery. Both are more costly than necessary as the under hood arrangement does not make it easy for your mechanic. This is my third Concorde since 1994 and I will miss them when they are all gone!

Loved my 2000 Concorde - was a good car until the 2.7 engine blew up!!! Had taken very good care of car with oil changes religiously every 3000 miles and transmission changed every 40,000. Thoroughly disgusted to find that Chrysler knew about the problems with the 2.7 engine and did nothing about it!!! The Concorde was the 5th Dodge/Chrysler we bought. Never again - if Chrysler doesn't care about its customers and its products, I don't need to help keep them in business!! Just bought a 2007 Ford!!!
It's been a love/hate relationship : )

Purchased with 29,000 miles - at 92,000 had to replace my engine. Although I had done oil changes regularly the engine was caked with gunk! I still owed...so I replaced it and am using premium gas and better quality oil. So far with the refurbished engine I've put 72,000 miles on it. Other than the car just up and dying on me the one time, it's been extremely reliable, starts great, still runs smooth and has been roomy enough to accommodate my growing children. The paint job still shines. When I'm ready to purchase another car I will consider a Chrysler again, with a different engine.

I purchased a pre-owned 2001 Chrysler Concorde LXi with a 3.2 L V6 engine. While we have all heard stories about the previous owner being an old lady that babied the car, in this case, I knew the owner and knew that to be the case. The car had been maintained by a local Chrysler dealership with 3,000 mile oil changes and had 42K at the time of my purchase. At around 50,000 the transmission welded itself solid, common problem with this model. Now at 75K it has major engine failure. What a piece of junk. Chrysler should be ashamed. And this is on top of the fact that the trunk supports are weak and the trunk constantly falls on your head when retrieving items from it. My first Chrysler & my last

i bought a 2000 chrysler concord lxi about 4 years ago IT LOOKED GREAT and it had alot of luxurious features which got me to buy it it was $3000 and had 118000 miles which is not bad for a 7 year old car or so i thought about two weeks later i walked out of my house to what looked like a murder scene, transmission fluid covered my drive way which which cost me $1600 to fix and since then i had nothing but troubles and heart ace from it the car over heated all the time even though i fixed the thermostat, water pump,radiator and the fans in it and when i took it to the Chrysler dealership they were baffled. wouldn't recommend it to anyone and i learned not to go for looks only performance

Needed to purchase a second car since we gave our second car to daughter who totalled hers. We came upon this model and it was in MINT condition. No scratches or stains. Beautifully maintained mechanically and in appearance. Pleased to see high owner satisfaction ratings. This helped make our decision easier. We love this car. In fact, my wife said "I'M DRIVING THIS CAR," and she turned over the mini-van ("her car") to me. The design is contemporary and an eye-pleaser. The ride is luxurious. Every option is available.

My wife and I went shopping for her new car. She didn't really know what she wanted and I couldn't believe she picked this big Chrysler (she was only 30 at the time.) She said my Taurus was too big. This has been a fantastic car. The ride is wonderful, has plenty of power for a V6 in a big car, and hers has every feature. It has completely changed my view of the Chrysler product and makes me want one as well. Plus, we bought at the end of the year and got thousands off the sticker, below invoice even.
Engine Failure

I purchased this vehicle new in December 2000. The car performed well until Feruary of 2005 when at 98,000 miles, the motor began making a noise and the oil light came on. Diagnostic tests revealed that the engine was destroyed due to oil starvation from oil sludge. The vehicle would require a replacement of the 2.7 liter engine. Faced with this option I decided to replace the car. Research over the past few weeks has revealed that the Chrysler 2.7 liter engine appears to have many problems. I would seriously recommend that anyone purchasing this vehicle type with tis motor, perform a in-depth check of the engine.

This vehicle has had no motor or drivetrain problems. Two electric window problems and twice the front transmission cooler lines had to be replaced. Car still looks great with regular washing and annual polishing. Mobil 1 used since bought -7500 mile oil and filter changes. Hope to get 200,000 miles from car.

The 2.7 engine is a bit underpowered, and the transmission could use some refinement. Otherwise, the car is great. 70,000 miles and it's still as solid as the day I drove it off the lot. The only problem I had with the car was small gasket leak in the transmission. Very reliable compared to other American made vehicles. Chrysler vehicles should retain their value better.

I have had my car for almost a year. Purchased it used with 57k on it. This car has all the bells and whistles as the more expensive import cars but half the price. The 3.2 engine is very strong but I still get mid 20's on the gas mileage. It is very comfortable on the inside and plenty of room. The trunk is so big "You can fit 5 bodies in there." The only problem I have had is having to replace the weather stripping due to shrinkage and the headlights filmed over a little. There is no reason to purchase a more expensive import car when these cars are half the price and just as reliable. Take it from me I am a sales manager at an import dealership. Just follow the scheduled maintenance.

2000 Chrysler Concorde: the best car I've owned. I bought it new. Interior: well engineered: plenty of leg room, easy access to knobs & switches, and very luxurious. For a car this size: outstanding 30 mpg on highway and 27 mpg in city. The only maintenance that I do religiously is oil/fluid changes, and replacement of tires, brakes, wipers... It has not let me down yet. Sleek look: body features and the paint (metallic steel blue) are still in excellent condition after all these years. The ride is smooth and very comfortable with ample power from the v-6. The only concern - door weather- stripping came loose and does not stay in place - seems to be a bad design. Any fix ideas?

I'm the original owner and have always babied my cars. I have to say I am very pleased with this vehicle and am SO thankful it has a 3.2 and not the infamous failing 2.7 motor. Lots of pep. With a few accessories it's a looker in town. The only downsides which I've learned to live with are wipers with a mind of their own which mechanics have no idea what's up with them. Just the intermittents. On my third factory radio. Door weatherstripping keeps shrinking and shrinking and causes it to hang. And as many chryslers, the factory chrome lettering is peeling off. Overall, I would recommend this car.

I just bought a 2000 Concorde LXi for $3000 in Augest and im proud to say that this is an amazing yet huge car! I put 4 new Michelin tires on it but my father got the darkest window tints on it and I can barely see backing up at night...oh well. I'd like to get a backup camera installed just for this reason. Fully loaded with practically everything reasonable. Sunroof, 4 disk cd changer, etc. Only probs are that the ride side of the cup holder is broke is annoying but looks funny and some of the paint is scratched because I brought from a concrete contracter guy and the passenenger window doesnt roll down but I am fixing it here soon. Amazing 3.2L DO NOT GET THE 2.7 OR YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!

I'm 6'5" tall and have 3 teenage kids, so I needed a full sized car to handle us. The 2000 Concorde LXi fit my needs perfectly. A large cabin (even my 6'7" son is comfortable driving it), good gas mileage at about 25 mpg overall, stylish looks, and a great interior with a superb stereo system make this car an pleasure to drive.

I saved for months to buy this car. I loved the room in the back seat and trunk area is HUGE! Loved the streamline look of the car with leather and a sunroof. Then it started. A/C failed, power windows failed, rubber seals around the doors were falling off every time I opened the door, and don't dare take it to a car wash. And if that wasn't bad enough, the 2.7 engine started to "tick". Come to find out that this engine is famous for SLUDGE. It gets trapped in the top of the engine and kills the horsepower and overall performance of the car. Very disappointed in this "American" car. Makes me sad to know I might have to buy a foreign car to get some reliability. It's just sad.

I bought a 19 months old LXI with 20,000 on odometer to replace my 1993 LXI. The car is great, but the transmission is tuned so the RPMs rarely go below 2000 under 40mph. This makes the fuel economy in city traffic worse. Also the trans does not down shift fast enough. The other problem that I have with the car is damage it sustaines in collisions. I had a low speed front end collision 4 months after buying the car (first accident ever). The damage was massive. I learned that the bumper with this grill is not very durable.
Beware the LX model with the 2.7 liter!

I purchased the car used (with the 2.7 liter engine) as a a roomy rather fuel efficient, full sized family vehicle. The car had 65,000 at the time of purchase. Less than a year later, at 75K, the internal water pump failed and flooded the engine with coolant, and also a loose exhaust valve guide caused the valve to wiggle and not seat seat properly, in turn causing damage to the valve seat. Hence the cylinder wouldn't hold compression. The total cost of repairs was $2,481 !! The 2.7 liter has an awful reputation of premature, catastrophic failures. Research the web!! I did, but it was too late for me! Stay away from the 2.7. Trust me.
Solid, reliable car

Good car that averages about 20 mpg in the city and anywhere from 30-33 mpg. Lot's of room and easily accomodates 5 passengers. Yes the engine power is a little on the lower side, but that's to be expected with such a large car being pushed by a 2.7l six cylinder. Huge trunk and plenty of room. We've had the car for almost four years and 47,000 miles; the only thing I've replaced is the windshield wipers. The OEM brake shoes will need changed soon.
Decent car

This car is very reliable. It has ok power and it is very comfortable. The ride is very smooth and it handles great. It is Mother friendly i.e. easy to unload kids due to the large backseat. Great gass mileage 28 mpg in the city. P.S. our first child is named concorde.

I bought this car after rolling into the dealership in a car that wouldn't move anymore. Overall, I have been very pleased with the car. I have had no mechanical problems with it so far (knock on wood), and it is truly a luxury car for the person who doesn't want to pay for a luxury car.
My door lock actuator also

I love this car. It is fun to drive and very comfortable. It has been a reliable car too that I would recommend to anyone. I, however, have also had door lock actuators go bad. Two of them sometimes choose to not unlock.

I bought my car used from a private party and love the way it looks and feels. Unfortunately, it tends to be sitting motionless in my driveway due to frequent breakdowns. Currently, it is at a dealership and in need of a $5000 new engine due to a thrown rod. It has less than 75,000 miles on the engine, so what gives? My 1990 GMC Suburban with 200,000 on the original engine and transmission is much more reliable, although not nearly as attractive. The engine episode is just the latest of a series of problems, large and small. I'll never, EVER own a Chrysler again. Lesson learned. Point me to the Hondas.
Love it except for one thing!

I love my Chrysler Concorde LXI! Smooth ride, nice handling, sporty looks! Under warranty, my car has had the radio replaced 2 times for shorting out! The only thing I don't like is that there is no room for a front license plate & I got a ticket today for no front plate!
A sporty yet luxurious car

Purchased car after 3 year company lease. Dealership can't figure out why wiper delay doesn't work properly when below freezing. Replaced radio 3 times. Weatherstipping shrinks and falls off. But, if you can put up with these little things and slap on a few exterior accessories and tint the windows, this car will make heads turn! It looks really sharp and rich. Handles tight and is peppy with the 3.2 engine. Transmission no problems. Lots of room and very comfortable. I would recommend it. Just don't get the 2.7 motor or you'll regret it.
Gorgeous car

Love the look, rides great, would like to see the 300M LHS 250 hp engine in the LXi. Stereo is good, love the chrome wheels.
