Dependable but uncomfortable

My cruiser is very dependable, it had a little over 10,000 miles when I bought it and 15 months later it has almost 50,000! I like driving it, but the seats have to be the most uncomfortable seats I've ever experienced. Like a park bench. And it has no guts at all, none. The fuel economy is very poor. Much worse that the sticker said. The fun part of the car is all the extras that you can get. Unfortunately, the resale value is a joke. If you purchase from a dealer, after the 1st year, your upside down & it won't be worth even close to what you owe on it.

This car is great when it comes to comfort. The gas mileage matches my 2002 manual transmission Ford Ranger. The cruise control could be in a better position. Transmission is a little jerky between 0-20. Front wheel drives are usually like that with 4 cylinders wound tight. When matched to a manual transmission, they will do that. Great room for passengers and storage. Smooth and quiet ride. Great handling on 15 inch rims. Factory sound system stinks.

Had everything go wrong! Spark plugs, front control arms (which is every single pt out there!), motor mount cracked, timing belt, rear windshield motor, battery at 90,000, transmission fluid was dirty, inside electrical display! Need I go on? Not really considering I gave it back to Chrysler! They stink never again!

The bionic car

It's faster and stronger than your average car. Even with 4 hefty adults and luggage, it screams through the streets and handles like a dream

We've even been to California and back, Since we had no problems, Three of us rode comfortably and had room for all the stuff, We're off to Nevada next! Our Nieces & Nephews even Love to cruise in it as much as we do.
