I bought this car new in August 2000 and have driven it for 11 years. That's 11 years on the streets of Chicago -- cold winters, hot summers, wheel-chewing potholes -- you name it, we have it. I hit 100,000 miles at the end of 2006, and now it's over 186,000. Took a road-trip to Seattle circa 2008; what a way to travel! The car was totally reliable through about 2008. After that, problems started creeping up, but that's hardly surprising for its age, mileage, and driving conditions. Given a choice, I'd buy this car again in a second. I'll be driving it till it stops.

33 Miles per gal at 60 mph highway

2000 chysler sebring jxi This car was a program car. It had 17,000 miles on it when I got it. The only thing I have had to do is replace the tires,oil change (synthetic oil), brakes battery a/c and belt. No tune needed yet. I don't think that is too bad for 132,000 miles and getting 33 miles per gallon @ 60 mph / 26.3 miles per gallon @ 79.5 mph and it is running strong. Thank you Chysler

Over the years I've heard and read some pretty negative things about this car. All I can say from my own experience was that I put almost 200,000 miles on mine in just less than 6 years. It endured a very long hard work commute in New York and I had the top down probably 200 days per year every year. It never had a mechanical failure of any kind and the paint/cloth top fit and finish on it looked perfect when I traded it in for a 2005, so the wheels had some expected corrosion. I really should have kept it. It was never garaged and I have to admit that I ran it through the car wash many times in addition to hand washing. Never in a shop except for wear items. The only negative thing I can think of is that with the standard all-weather tires it definitely was not good in inclement winter weather.

Since the day I first got this car I have had nothing but trouble with it . I had a horrible oil leak ,Then blew a seal , I learned later that these cars are know for this to happen because they have cheap gaskets. I now have a horrible Transmission leak and the suspension is now crap. I will never purchase a Chrysler again.

This is my first convertible and I am very happy with it. I have 70000 miles on it and it looks as good as when it was new. Very few problems with the car, all were minor. Still no leaks. The trunk is great for a convertible and the back seats actually are comfortable. I keep thinking about a new car, but can't bring myself to get rid of it. On the downside, it could use a few more horses, but the car is very reliable. The top is still in great sheape. It still turns heads!
