Good cruiser
Bought in 1999 with 34K. Now has 130K. Water pumps,Thermostat, front end, and A/C problems. $1200 to fix A/C--so I didn't/havent't. Still great mileage,great room,great ride. Trunk and Interior are HUGE. I did lots of road miles, til last year. This is one great hi-way Cruiser. 27 mpg while cruising at 82 mph on Interstate.Handles fairly well. About 18-20 around town. Still looks pretty new at 14 yrs old.Love the leather seats,layout etc. ( I'm over 6 ft) Stereo--Great Sounds. I also have 2 Mazda 626 5-spds. (25/34 mpg)(1995 & 1997) I'd buy any of these vehicles again.
Chrysler LHS, good luxury sedan.
Very pleased with this big luxury sedan, very good performance and comfort, huge trunk. If I could go out and buy a new one today,(April 9 2009),I would be down at the dealers right now. Surprisingly good fuel consumption for this large, powerful car, my long term fuel economy is 20.1 mpg over 105000 miles. mixed city and freeway driving. The power steering rack failed early, but was replaced under warranty by the dealer at no cost to me. The car went though a series of coolant pumps until we discovered that there was a design or manufacturing error in the timing belt tensioner mounting. Addition of a spacer (~0.25in thick) between the tensioner and the mounting flange cured the problem
I like the feel but hate the repair bill
Nice car to drive and comfortable but has 88,000 mile and have had teh water pump and timing chain replaced twice. Many other small problems.
Good Car... Not so good reliability
Good car. I like the Infinity Stereo System. Great space on the back seat. Some problems with the engine and front suspension. On reverse it sound and feels a strong knock o hit on the engine. On trips is very good and spacious. The trunk is huge. Great car mileage, better that some small cars. The large size refelcts on a great interior size but on heavy traffic is difficult to move from lane to lane. It is handy and a bit sporty.
1996 LHS
Owned since it had 16 miles on the odometer. Except for some unfortunate wind noise in the front seats at highway speeds the ride is EXCELLENT!! Problems with cooling system components since about 1 year old. Two water pumps, one radiator, on thermostat, one set of belts in 90,000 is not bad however. The rest of car has functioned flawlessly.
