Loving My Cruiser!

I've only had my Cruiser for one week today and with each new day, I love it more. I have even washed it on my lunch hour! (Not something I would normally do.) For the price and features, you can't beat it.

We love this car. Roomy, fun to drive around town or on the highway. Wish it got better gas mileage.

So Far So Good

It's still early, but so far my wife and I love the car. Turbo provides smooth power, fit and finish very good, ergonomics are great. Chrysler put a lot of thought into interior and it shows. Like most modern cars, under hood is crammed full.

I love mine!

I personally have not had any problems with my cruiser. It has plenty of room for a 4 cyl and plenty of storage and space if needed. We have 5 people in our family and can all take long trips in comfort and style. We have owned numerous vehicles with no such luck. Gas is really good in mine and it still drives like a new car. No problems what-so-ever. I would definitely recommend this car to others. My mother in law has had one for the last 7 years and has never had a problem with hers. She just loves it. She recently traded hers in for a 2008. Good luck to everyone and hopefully you will enjoy yours as much as we do ours!

06 pt cruiser limited

I use the car for business and drive about 200 miles a day. mileage has been around 25 mpg, on the road at speeds around 70 mph. good build quality. the horn is hard to push and a service bulletin has been issued and will be addressed at the next service. interior is very versatile and the seats fold nicely. the new seats have hard bolsters on the lower cushion which are not comfortable for a heavy person. The handling in the limited edition is good as is the ride, for a small car.

In the year and a half that I have owned ny cruiser, it has had repairs done on steering problems 5 times. I think the whole steering system must be new! Also, the air conditioning drags the idle speed down when waiting for traffic lights.

Base PT Cruiser... a dissapointment

I'm happy with the build quality, room and reliability. But the car is not very good for highway cruising; it is noisy, vibrates at speed and doesn't have much passing power. Also the gas mileage ... it gets just what the window sticker says, but not the greatest for a smallish car.

Bought my first PT Cruiser on line, preproduction. Picked it up May 12, 2000. I had to have but two repairs. After 145,000 miles I decided it was time. Looked at lots of others but the comfort I am a big man) and style I just love.

My Second PT

This is the second PT Cruiser I have purchased. Had my first one for four years and just wanted to update. It is a reliable and fun car. I get good performance from the PT. It is easy for seniors to get in and out because it is a bit higher and our folks like to ride in my car. Seats 4 adults comfortably and can have 5 if younger children in back. There is enough leg room in both front and back. Good trunk space. Great for tailgating/picnics - having the table in the trunk area.

Fun roomy and distinctive. I have other autos ie Mustang. We just enjoy the car fun for our family, a retro appeal and comfy.
