This car is so much fun to drive- it really goes! Not only does the inside look super nice, but the outside is sporty and sleek too. It drives really well in snow b/c it has front wheel drive and it's even low pro! And the factory sound system will blow your mind it sounds so good! I wanted a reliable car that I could keep for a few years but also one that would look good too. They really matched the colors nicely. Mine is silver and has some silver interior along with the black. This car is super awesome, I tell you no lies!

The Worst Car I Have Ever Driven

2003 Chrysler Sebring LXi 2dr Coupe (3.0L 6cyl 5M)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful

Ever since I drove this car off the lot it nothing but a problem. The car's rear end sets too high over 17" inch wheels and it will simply not hold an alignment. I have had the car in seevral different dealers for service on 5 different occasions. It was given a four wheel alignement on 2 occasions, and the other three "couldn't duplicate" my concerns. The Chrysler dealers have been the worse. DON'T BUY THIS CAR!!! MINE'S A LEMON!!!

My Lxi is loaded with features that I have yet to explore. The pros are: options pricing, performance, and an enjoyable ride with no buyers regret. The cons include poor placement of seat heater swithes, very small opening to the trunk, and fellow city dwellers that have dinged my car.

Front end noise and more

Would not purchase another. Had owned a 2001 same model previously. Front end problems in both. 2 different dealerships - hear it, but can't fix it after multiple attempts at bushings, sway bars. Sounds like a rocking chair creaking when braking and turning; noise is not present when only turning, however, I am told it is not a brake issue nor a safety issue. Concerned about resale and wear/tear especially after out of warranty. Also, have excess wind noise on driver's side; excess brake dust; intermittent outside temp sensor malfunction; one-touch down driver's window never worked.

very exellent vehicle. I had a 1998 chrysler sebring coupe that was a piece of junk, that was also bought brand new from the dealer. This new style and year has not given me a problem. I love the vehicle. The performance is great. I commute 120 miles a day 4 days a week in this vehicle and there has not been any problems with it on the freeway.

We bought after having our 2nd child, since we couldn't fit 2 car seats in our old convertable. It's fun for me to drive but my 6' husband is frustrated by the visor mounting and low windshield, which make it hard for him to see. It's comfortable though unsexy - I feel like I'm in a convertible version of my parents' car versus something young, urban & hip.

I purchased a sebring convertable a year ago and have fully enjoyed the driving experience. I am slightly disapointed in the ride, not as comfortable as I thought. The "blind spot" right rear area is troublesome but bearable. The heated seats are a plus, the easy up/down top and the cover are terrific. Should have done this ten years ago.

So far it has been very good. But this was because they honored the warranty when the transmission started giving trouble. Though the trouble was minor they overhauled the show thing, which was probably the fair and best then for both the company and certainly for me.

I bought the car for my birthday! It has been a great car since i bought it 6 months ago. No trouble yet!!! It is sorta of gutless for a 4 cylinder but the car is simply too big for that small of an engine. The transmission sometimes tends to slip from 2nd to 3rd...can't figure out why. Other than that, it is amazing. The factory sound system is better then most AFTERMARKET systems!!!

I bought this car new in May '03. For a while it was a nice, fun to drive car. Around Oct. 2005 I started to have engine trouble. I took it to Chrysler and they told me I needed a new engine. Confirmed by my own independent mechanic. I spent $3,000 on a used engine, installed. This year '06 I had to spend another $1,200 on a new transmission. All said I will have over $20,000 in this car when it's paid off. I have too much in it now not to drive it as long as I can. I will never EVER buy another 4 cylinder and might not buy another Chrysler.

The worst car that I've ever known. At 26,000 I had my THIRD transmission installed; original, at 22,000 rebuilt tranny, 26,000 brand new one installed. It's been in the shop over 8 times for the transmission slipping especially in cold weather. Chrysler customer service does not stand behind their product. I will never buy a Chrysler product again. This all could have been fixed if they stood behind their product.

I had a Chrysler Cirrus before my Sebring LXi, the (foreign manufactured) Cirrus was discontinued and the (American made) Sebring replaced it... they are essentially the same style/type vehicle (smaller, not a "boat" and very comfortable to drive, lots of power and handling to trust)... I loved my Cirrus and was unhappy that Chrysler had discontinued them (and I bought my Sebring somewhat reluctantly)... WoW! were my fears unfounded. The Sebring was a real step up in overall driving experience... It continues to be a wonderful vehicle, literally in every imaginable way. It truly feels/performs like a sports car. It has power to spare anytime I need it, IT ROCKS! (I'm Age 58)

I'm an original owner of 2003 Sebring LX. I've got 200k miles on it, the only major repair I had was when I had to replace the water pump last year & by choice had the trans replaced right before the warranty expired. Other than normal wear & tear(brakes/plugs,etc) I have all original parts on the car...including the exhaust system. Maybe I just got lucky, but I love my 4-banger! :)

I took my Grand daughter on vacation to Tennessee. We explored the mountains in the Sebring and I couldn't believe the response and the ease of handling the sharp turns and the down grades, it never missed a beat. This is a wonderful car to drive and a fantastic car to ride in. I will never buy anything else. My Granddaughter thinks we are cool when we ride around with the top down. We are!!!

I loved this car when I bought it, but I have spent 5k just maintaining it in a little over a year. First it was regular maintenance - replace the timing belt at 90,000, little things like that, but then the fuel pump failed with no warning, there is a constant misfire that has been looked at by SIX different mechanics (including 2 Chrysler dealerships) and no one can tell me what is causing it, the computer isn't listing codes. It got FANTASTIC gas mileage up until the drama with the misfire began. There's been other problems owning this car is like being pecked to death by chickens. I will never purchase another Chrysler. OH and it leaks like a sieve when it rains!

I find this vehicle to be extremely pleasing to the eye. Deep red accented with black trimmings-black convertable top. It really catches the eye. People on the street and at stop lights always telling me "nice car". Runs beautifully. Extremely easy convertable top. Leather interior and cd player--my daughter thought she was a princess, and me a queen for a good six months after we bought it, while driving. My first "new" car--it was the car I had always wanted.

I have owned many different convertables and this Limited is by far the best and the most fun. I don't care for a manual transmission any more and the 'Auto-Stick' really fills the bill when I want to bring back the 'old shifting' days. It has great response and reminds me of my old 'Hurst' side shifter I installed in my old '56 Chevy.

I bought this convertible purely because of the way it drives. The trunk is the largest of convertible trunks & a very usable shape. For 96,000 miles I have had vertually no problems: door lights quit working, electric seat motor quit, seatbelt covers came loose from seat. The Seabring is the best vehichle I have ever owned (ownership experience 8 autos), note suggested improvements.

After 2 accidents and 120,000 miles, my '96 JXi was getting tired, so I thought it was time. I'd been mentally keeping track of the minor visible changes, but a lot more invisible changes had been happening: Quieter, firmer, improved door panels, stronger engine.

I have enjoyed my first Chrysler product (previously GM)very much. Very sporty, luxurious (leather, sunroof, stereo), and very unique. I have never had so many people ask me about a car or complement me regarding my car before. Looks much more expensive than it is. Great road car and excellent mileage (30 mpg at 75 mph). Very smooth on the road and very responsive. Can't believe there aren't more on the road. I would recommend it highly. Automatic stick shift is a hit with my teenage sons (and to me).

The outside styling compares to vehicles in the 30-50k range, a distinctive Mercedes touch. The (optional) infinity stereo rivals some premium after market stereos with exceptional sound. Unusual quiteness in the cabin, when all windows are up it is extremely quiet. The engine is also quiet unless pushed. Speaking of the engine, very fast and felt faster than a 200 h.p. vehicle, yet mileage doesn't seem to be effected holding to a good 30 mpg on the highway. Other great features: total of 5 cup holders, auto dimming rearview mirror, large trunk, spacious interior and fun to drive.
