Best Convertible I have ever owned

2002 Chrysler Sebring GTC 2dr Convertible (2.7L 6cyl 4A)

I have been the only owner of my Sebring 2002 Convertible. I have changed the oil religiously about every 3000 miles, changed the tranny fluid, and done other preventative maintenance as suggested. The only problem I have had with my vehicle is with the seat belt light staying on. I changed out a fuse and had the box reset and that helped for about two weeks. The light came back on. It doesn't bother me to have the light on so I leave it alone. The only other problem I had was with some small piece in the system that cost about $100 (it caused the car to shut down at stop lights). I got that fixed and everything is ok again. It has been a great car..no lemon. I am over 100k mi. now.
Poor design poor quality.

Water pump is driven by a timing chain that is inside engine on 2.7 engines. My original pump failed at 61,800 miles flooding engine with antifreeze. Water pump casting number is 0466373611797B followed by Chrysler STAR SYMBOL. Now I'm having to pay $5000 for an engine rebuild. Chrysler refuses to own any part of the problem has been happening since 1999. Before purchasing a Chrysler 2.7 please check out the horror stories on the intranet. Old sales pitch was don't buy no ugly truck. Buyers beware.

I purchased this car when it was 3 years old with 30K miles. I've had it now 11 years and put 50K more miles on it. Extremely low maintenance. I would not be sceptical to head out on a nice long vacation in it, as is. Very enjoyable to own.

Its not a Mustang , -no way!! The COPS know this is not a hot rod!! I do not get tickets for speeding, love it !! This Sebring is not great at cornering , but its got a low center of gravity, great touring car ,, good for N.E.where I live. I can carry 4 people 5 medium size people, the ride is nice.The Sebring does get good -very good gas milage, surprising,, its a people car. Stereo works wonders, over all good for seniors, families, women, and students. Disadvantages :The car is heavy ,solid, good for safety in a wreck , however Joe Hot Rods needs to stay away from this one,,its a touring car , not the Indy 500 COP blow out turbo tornado. Also bad on repairs ---once over 100k,, you need to rebuild the car , all the way , use Nappa parts ,its a wise move. Chrysler does not make cars for long lasting , every Chrysler product gobbles parts , the convertible is some what better than the rest of the line, but expect to put $$$ in. Best bet, buy form a dealer with a warrantee or Joe Mechanic, that basically kept the car up. Happy touring .. oh the AC,,heating system is excellent ,even with the top down!

This is definitely a good buy! I have no regrets with this purchase. The car overall is a real head-turner. With the top down, children love staring at it as you drive by, and adults often give you the thumbs up or start conversation. So many people want to go for a ride in the car as so many people have never ridden in a convertible and with the comfort and space you can easily take 3 people with you on the ride. Trunk space is plenty for a convertible with the top down. And the top goes up and down in like 6 seconds or so quietly and easily. Unlike some cars you can even operate the top up to around 10 MPH. There is no roll over protection so... don't flip it! But it's got a nice low center of gravity anyway so chances of flipping are low. The aerodynamics in this thing is phenomenal! Driving over 70mph on a windy rainy day on the countryside was a breeze. You can hear when the wind hits the car but it stays the course very well. And I personally get a kick out of the sound of the wind getting sliced by the wipers as it wipes. With a good, tight top on the car (like new) the noise level with the top up is very minimal and similar to a standard hard body car. Warning though, when I got mine used, the back window on the top was separated from the cloth causing a leak in the back into the trunk. Chances are you'll need to replace the top. There's a site that can sell you one for around $500, that's where I got mine, and put it on myself. Took 2 people with no experience in convertible tops but we got it done and it looks great! Took us a whole day lol. One of my biggest complaints though is the electronics. The headlights are not very bright so I recommend getting one with working foglights. And also I'm having a fight with my headlight switch as it seems to now be tied to my foglights. Headlights turn on, foglights come with for no reason! I've gone through several switches and eventually each one either ties my headlights to the foglights, or fog lights stop working altogether. I'd rather it stay on all the time which is my current issue, I can live with this. Also my door locks sometimes don't lock/unlock with the key fob... other times it does. And there's a connector under the passenger seat tied to the airbag system that frequently lights my airbag light. I every so often have to get out and push it together to get it to turn off. This car has gremlins I swear. But still when everything is working fine its a great car I still recommend it greatly!

Had this car for 8 years and it now has 158,000 miles. Ran fine until now. I guess it's because of old age/mileage. Now I'm having problems with antifreeze leaking and sometime overheating. I replaced the water pump and thermostat and thermostat housing. All this in a year's time. Still having overheating and antifreeze leaking issues. I hope it can be fixed but it is now starting to nickle and dime me. I guess I can't complain since it never gave me a problem until 2007. But hey, look at my mileage. I love this car and enjoyed it. I just hate to part with it.

Make sure you get all of your oil changes every 3000 miles. We did not know at the time of purchase that this particular engine has an internal timing chain, in the engine. They wanted to replace our engine with the 3.0L because the 2.7L has such a bad problem with this. We had to have the engine rebuilt and it was almost impossible to get parts for the timing chain assembly. Stick with a car that has a timing belt. Don't buy one with the timing chain in the engine, it only leads to a more expensive repair.

I bought my Sebring earlier this year, and fell in love immediately...that was until I began to have issues. Whole front end shot out, replaced axle assembly and ball joints, $750. the previous owners were older, had it dealer serviced regularly. I recently had to get rid of my Sebring because the timing chains went, screwing up the entire engine. My mechanic told me I'd need a rebuild or replacement, $2900 at least. Not worth it on a 9 year old car with 120k. Loved the car, still kills me I had to get rid of it. But I do not miss the headaches and stress, this car is a total bad buy. I now have a '09 Sentra,while I'll always miss my loaded convertible, I feel a lot safer now.

Our Sebring Convertible is now 1 year old and we love it. Living in the Chicago area handling is very important and it handles great in all weather. Considering it is a rag top it is also very quiet. All controls are handy to the drive and passenger. The V6 allows interstate driving with ease. The biggest arugment we have over this car is, who will drive it.

Like the cars look. Fun to drive, just wish it wasn't always to get service. How can they make such good mini-vans (I am on my 3rd), yet make such a poor quality convertible. There has never been a time when there wasn't something seriously wrong with it. It leaks trans fluid, oil and coolant. I just got it inspected again at the dealership, currently, the trans solenoid pack needs replacing, the oil pan and oil pressure sending switch is leaking, the rack and pinion is shot, the door "clips" are broken, the leather seats are tearing and I just replaced the right front hub bearing. The windshield washer works good though.

Attractive styling, good handling, roomy in front & back. Every car has compromises, and this one is great fun and a very good mix of decisions that yield a vehicle that is good at cruising, good at the twisty-turning type of drives, and has good comfort.

I bought my Sebring LX convertible in May '02. It has been at the dealership 9 times in 4 months! If you want to drive a paint mixer this car is for you! Car shakes and vibrates so bad that the ride is awful and the fun of driving a convertible is gone. Chrysler says it's NATURE OF THE BEAST! I bought a $26,000 LEMON and can't get any satisfaction from Chrysler or their reps. I will be filing a lawsuit very soon. I have CONSUMER PROTECTION & THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE OF MARYLAND helping me. I have only 1940 miles on it!

I bought this baby blue convertible new. It gets really outstanding mileage that it automatically checks for you. I am getting around 32 highway. The only problem I have had during my 70,000 miles was at about 50,000 it wouldn't come out of 1st gear! I drove it slowly, to the dealership where I purchased it. It was a small plastic piece that I learned Chrysler had in it that wore out about that mileage. I had extended warranty and they fixed it. Glad I had it. It is a snazzy looking car, and being blonde, I look good in it with the top down and Andre Bocelli playing when I head to the beach. Great fun and would buy it again in a heartbeat.

I researched this car on the internet. I compared it to the nissan, toyota and mustang. For the price and style it stood above the rest. It is a fun car. Since I have owned however, I have had it in the shop for various repairs in excess of 30 days. It has had oil light problems, overheat problem, alignment problems. God help you if you had to change the battery. I am on my 3rd roof motor. the fabric is tearing on the roof as well. I drive highway miles. I would recommend that you pass on this car until Chrysler gets its act together it is nice but no Substance.
Go out and buy one!!!!!!

My Sebring definetely filled my expectations. It is a beautiful, stylish, elegant, and not too sporty vehicle that is very fun to drive. The gas mileage is great. There is enough room to fit 3 people in the back with comfortable leg room. The seatbelts are extremely comfortable, you hardly notice them. The top comes down smoothly. The sound system is powerful, this can be especially noticed when the top is down and the car is being driven in the highway. I give this car a 10.

I once owned a 1997 Chrysler JXI convertible, and still own a 1996 Chrysler LXI coupe. Both were wonderful cars, and this sterling blue metallic 2002 Sebring Limited convertible is fantastic for the money. I love the cream and navy interior. I never considered myself a Chrysler booster, but I have to say the fit and finish are great, and it is just so fun, and a great drive even in the cold with the heat-adjustable seats, great handling and autostick. (mine came with all the toys.) The autostick is really great for getting better mileage, which is about 22-23 city, 28-30 highway, and the autostick is very fun without having to kick the clutch all the time.

I have a Sebring convertible LXI ,from a looks standpoint I love the styling and the car looks like it is far more expensive than it is.Interior styling is nice as well and adequate room.AC and Stereo work great.Ok gas mileage.Fun to drive but has a lot of rattles on bumpy road.I am the third owner and car was well maintained but mine is equipped with the trouble prone 2.7 that has a reputation for water pumps going out(it is inside engine) and timing chain issues.So far mine is okay but it only has 55k on car.You have to change the oil a lot for these engines will end up with a lot of sludge if you don't.I love the fact it is a convertible and both the top and windows work fine.Nice looking wheels.

It is now several years since my first posting. I still love my GTC, and it still looks showroom-clean. Twice the blower switch needed replacement, but aside from one headlight, the car has been trouble-free. The 5 speed is the best on snow and ice, and I like the control in rush hour (especially as a way of conserving fuel given the current cost). MPG in the city hovers between 21 and 24 depending on driving conditions. My second review (first in 2006) still radiates enthusiasm for this car. I still wish 1st gear had less resistance off the line, but all in all, I continue to love this car. A little Meguiar's Instant Detail keeps the black a high gloss and the wheels looking good.
GTC 5 SPEED: UPDATE
Shifter, 04/06/2009
2002 Chrysler Sebring GTC 2dr Convertible (2.7L 6cyl 4A)
1 of 1 people found this review helpful
Update: 44,000 miles. My "black-on- black beauty" 5 speed manual continues to be just that. The mirror-like finish remains deep and clear, and still maintains like-new appearance. The last tank of fuel (city driving) yielded 23 mpg, and that fluctuates in a range of 21-23 city--all on original plugs. With the exception of two switch replacements in the heat-ac blower, the car has been absolutely mechanically excellent. One change noted, however, is the presence in Winter, when the cabin is cold, of loud squeaky sounds where the top meets the windshield frame. As the cabin heats up the sound diminishes in loudness. Handling remains tight & I love the 5 speed control in snow and rain.

Formerly a Jaguar owner going through a mid-life crisis, I decided to bite the proverbial bullet purchasing a Bright Silver Sebring GTC. Though not a Jaguar by far, it is an absolute joy to drive, except for the constant, rough transmission shifting in and out of 1st gear (auto), rain dropping in with a window open (a simple rain drip molding at the windshield would solve this issue), cheap interior trim that even Hyundai surpasses in quality, lack of what we currently deem necessary standard equipment absent, unavailable, or non-equipped from the factory, and an enhanced ownership program would be nice, after all, isn't that what the merger with Mercedes was meant to do? Where's the substance?!

Had the auto-start installed and it screwed up the electrical system where we had it in the shop for the first week of its new life! Grand Prix made up for it with lifetime oil changes though...so no complaints now! Excellent car...very sturdy for a convertible - thank god we didn't buy the Cabrio (we were real close!), which felt like a Go Cart compared to this car.

First year where heated seats were offered, and is a "must." Light colored leather seats hold up well, even with family use. This is the only convertible that would work for my family size wise (great trunk space and can even fit a bale of hay in it!). Only issue ever with this car is "nagging" Air Bag light warning, that can't seem to be corrected. No set offs or anything though. And the car has been perfect otherwise. Have people offering to buy it often, but can't seem to part with it.

The Sebring GTC is my second convertible, much different from my '95 Cutlass Supreme. I plan on using this car for commuting on a year 'round basis (in Vermont). It remains to be seen how it will fare in winter, but with FWD and good snow tires I think it will be OK. Gas mileage is good at 28-30 mpg on regular, the top is truly weatherproof and interior quiet with top up.

This car is fun but all the design/build shortcuts make it a question mark as to how long it will hold up. I drive more than 20K miles a year and can see potential problems ahead. At 50K the brakes seem like they need to be replaced, the suspension groans and creaks, the body has lots of rattles and there are small but annoying noises coming from behind the dash. The washer fluid freezes in the winter, the car takes very long to warm up, there is not even a height adjustment on the driver's seat and I can see wear on the convertible top from rubbing on the frame. i wish that I could say lots of good things about it. I really wanted to "drive American" but this unit is a disappointment!

I purchased my 2002 Limited convertible in Jan 2006. It had 30,000 miles on it. I have had no mechanical problems, just change the oil and go. Power, handling and looks are great. The only unusual problem I had was that one of the chrome wheels rusted around the rim and it was impossible to get a good seal to the tire. So, I was getting a constant slow leak I swapped the chrome wheels with some aftermarket rims and new tires and the car looks even better than before!

I loved this car when I bought it. Then I had problems with the brakes [squealing] the dealership said, "it was how I drove the car" I have also had to replace tires in the 3rd of ownership. 8/17/04 car engine seized; Chrysler and the dealership put the onus on the consumer-poor maintenance - despite records of oil changes and brake issues. I no longer feel 'safe' in this car. type 2.7 at google to see problems related to this engine.

This is my fourth convertible and third Sebring. I traded my 1998 Sebring JXi in on a 2001 Sebring Limited (the first one my dealer received). It was Dark Blue with the Cream Leather seats. I was very disappointed in that car. Had serious electrical problems from the get-go and had to have it back to the dealer several times. In addition the very pretty cream interior was a nightmare to keep clean. Got rid of that and bought a 2002 Sebring LXi with Taupe leather interior. MUCH better car. Never been back to the dealer, seems better put together than the Limited was. Very stiff structure and well insulated top makes you forget its a convertible, until you put top down.

This car is an absolute joy to drive. The head-turning quotient is just incredible, and it's still the coolest way to get around on an 80 degree day. Heated seats are a nice touch in the winter, and the V-6 pulls just enough to get up and go.

Do you break into a smile every time you pull your car out of the driveway? Buy a Sebring convertible and you will. I'm only sorry that I had to drive for 25 years before I owned this car. I never knew that driving could be this fun. On nice days, when I see other owners driving with the top UP, I am amazed. Mine is white exterior, black top, tan interior. In my opinion, the best color combination - with the top down, it just oozes "summer fun." The V6 provides plenty of power.

I really like the new Sebring GTC. I was considering buying a Mustang until I drove the Sebring. It rides better, feels more powerful, and has real rear seating.The gearing for the 5 speed trans is perfect. Good power across the band. The top is really easy to lower and raise. The cover for the top is also very easy to install. I have owned a mustang, corvette, and trans am. I never considered this car until it was offered with a 5 speed.

This vehicle is a dream come true. Seems it evolved from the LeBarron and I loved it back then, too, only now it just got better. I am 53 years old and it brings back fond memories of my "Pony Car" days from the '60's and 70's. Her name is "Korbel" after the champagne and her friends call her "Belle" - She is quiet yet feisty in the passing lane. I get plenty of attention and a lot of pleasure while driving this car. Comfortable, sturdy, quiet, smooth - It's all good!
Fun in the sun - warm ride in winter

My black-on-black beauty consistently turns in 21-24 mpg in the city. Love the control afforded by the 5 speed. Wish 1st gear afforded greater and longer oomph off the line. That being said, the power is adequate and the growl audible as the GTC whines through the gears quickly toward a rapidly achieved 60. Four-windows-down is terrific! Black finish is mirror- like perfect. I actually like the non- glitz of the interior with minimal amenities. The 4 CD changer is outstanding! The heater in Winter (or cool evenings with top down)is the best! Inside of top is well padded and nicely hides structural bars. Back seat room is simply the best! The top boot cover is easy-on and easy-off.
So far so good

Bought the car for the wife. Our first convertible and we both like it very much(actually, she's in love with it). We've had it only for a week and it's definitely a keeper. While I'm a SUV guy, I can't complain about the interior room for a convertible. The exterior is nice but still a "girly" or feminine car. Performance is great and the sport suspension handles the road very well. Acceleration is surprisingly aggresive. Definitely build to be driven with the top down (not enough head room with top up). The 2-tone leather and 4 disc in-dash with 150w Infinity speakers are worth every penny.
Fun car to drive

This is my first convertible. I primarily bought it for my wife but I love it too. The car has great pickup and gas mileage for a large car is good, about 22-25 miles per gallon. My one complaint would be the tires leaking air. My tire place claims that it was the chrome wheels. However, I recently purchased new tires and they have not loss any so far. My other complaint would be the brakes had to be replaced at 30,000 miles which seems too quick.

The Chrysler Sebring Convertible is the most fun to drive of any car I have owned, including a Corvette, a Triumph Spitfire, an Olds 442, and an Opel GT, among others. The only thing I don't care for is the location of the cup holders in the front, a small price to pay.

It is a car that you can enjoy. As you are becoming a little older it is time to enjoy life. Don't always go for the standard mundane, be a kid at heart.
Fun to Drive.

Love the auto dispite trans problem and oil light problem while at idle. I have not enjoyed convertible since my 53 target red Chevy convertible.
Great Car

This car is such fun. It feels good, looks good, and rides even better. Over the past 10 years I've had a new Grand Prix, new Blazer, new Caravan....nothing compares to my Sebring! Feel safer driving now then ever before. Am no longer nervous to drive in rain or snow. With a long paved slanted driveway, I never worry of making it during winter weather. My husband's GMC 1500 4X4 or my sons Jeep Cherokee can't begin to compare. This is the best car I've ever had. I wouldn't hesistate to buy another.

Everyone thinks my car is beautiful. So do I. Cruising the interstate at 80 while getting 27-30mph is wonderful. Top end for passing is strong, but don't look to drag race. 0- 60 should not be an issue. If it is,look elsewhere. Heated seats for a 40something back makes touring a breeze. My daughter with her 2004 spec-V sentra is (as I type) looking for one. She flew home from Texas and drove my car--now she says she needs a change because she got spoiled when here in SC.

My second Sebring: the first being a 97 JX. 2nd iteration is much better: Less body cowl, quieter, boot snap though dated is a vast improvement over the 96- 00 fiasco. Excellent value for its price range and I love it in gold with a navy top and the 2 tone cream and navy interior with chrome wheels. I get lots of compliments on it. A very happy Sebring owner since 1997. Will trade to the new 06 which is said to have many styling cues from the current Crossfire.
