eagle talon
had a few weird problems at the beginning (2 cracked radiators), but all were covered by warranty. Very few problems, AWD is fantastic for bad weather and great in the snow. Loose side mouldings had to be reattached a few times, but overall a great car. Great handling and lots of power
Life In The Fast Lane
I've driven Hondas, Toyotas, Chevys, Fords, Benzs, BMWs; you name it I've pretty much had a chance to drive it or own it. Never have I had as much fun in a car as I have in my talon. I absolutely love the car and fell in love with it within the first couple days that I owned it. I bought the car with 83,000 miles on it and in less than two months I have added nearly 3,000 more, simply because I like to drive it, no long trips or anything. This car is beauty and the beast all in one. I've already left many a mustang/corvette owner sad and blue after a race off the line. I just wish I had bought it sooner. :)
What a nightmare!
I owned an automatic Eagle Talon for three years and had to replace 4 trasnmissions, torque converter, and possibly the engine but I traded it at that point. What a horrible nightmare. Neither Kelly of Lynnfield, MA or Chrysler was a joy to work with in this whole mess. AVOID!!!
transmission
I bought this car with the intention of a reliable car well I got the car with around 85,000 miles and I thought huh should be good low miles just getting broke in. Nope that was not the case bout two months of driving timing belt timing gears and water pump all at one time. Then bout two weeks later the master cylinder for clutch started leakin. I was like ok there should be any more problems for a while then bout 8 months after purchase the trans blew a hole in the side of it I was like noway well I got one out of junk yard for 500 bucks and again 5 months later the same happened again all I have to say is the car was probably a good little car when it was new but if you by one used beware.
I LOVE MY TALON
Every person i know loves my car and wishes it were there's. They also can't believe it's a '95 since it's stayed in such good shape. I love my car, it's my baby and wouldn't trade it for anything.
