"No matter how appealing this car looks..DO NOT BUY ONE!!!!! The 2.7 has a documented history of major engine failure..Mine blew the engine at 72k miles with no warning and it's now a $10.000 hunk of scrap metal..If you own one and the oil sending unit goes bad replace it and sell it the next day..The sending unit will be the only warning you may get before the engine blows at a cost of $6000 to repair!!"

"This car always seems to turn heads. Easy to drive, and dependable in driving in the icy weather. Found that the gas mileage is very good. Will be buying another Sebring again."

"I bought this car brand new in 2001. It is a fully loaded LXi with all the options. It has 145k miles on it. To date I have put nearly $10K into this car. Everything from a transmission, contol arms, struts, computer modules, etc. The dealer (Rhinebeck NY) had it for service at 60K miles and twodays later the engine seized (they paid for that one). I will never buy another Chrysler product!"

"for the money, no other convertible comes close. great ride, great value, great trunk space, reliability has been better then expected. Still looks great. People think it is new and I have put 138,000 miles on it. LOVE this car. Looking to find another one between the year 2002 and 2006 with heated seats. In 2001, heated seats wasn't an option and I wish it had that feature!"

"Hey everyone, I saw this car in person and the engine is in poor condition. As soon as I started it up, I knew in a month I would start replacing parts. The roof also has a hole in it... Not a good car, and severely over priced."

"I found myself coming back to this car. I bought a 2002 Chrysler Sebring convertible-limited edition, but I think mine was a lemon. The water pump exploded inside the engine and I had to total it. My husband has a 2001 Chrysler Sebring LXi sedan and I traded him my 2003 Infiniti G35!! I just can't stay away from the extreme comfort, reliability, and looks! This car will not disappoint if you take care of it like you're supposed to!"

"I purchased one of these used in 2002 with 18,000 miles, and it now has 102,000 miles and going strong! The original chrome wheels began corroding/flaking about a year ago, resulting in countless rim leaks; I gave up the battle a month ago and replaced the wheels with near-matching aftermarket wheels when I decided to keep the car indefinitely. Nice power, handling, and great eye appeal; amazingly the fabric top is still good as new, and still airtight. Keep building them Chrysler"

"I think have changed everything in this car. I have changed strut mounts,water pump, had problems with aluminum wheels eroding and then problems with keeping air in the tires. Changed the radiator, and oil pan and struts and etc. Would not buy another but I like the looks of them."

"I bought my used with 35,000 miles on it. Loved it at first, but it turned into a real money pit for me. I had to put a new transmission in it when it hit 85,000 miles. Had a horrible time with the tires, I was later told that particular alloy rim was easily bent, and that's why my tires went flat all of the time. There were various other problems so I gave it to my son when he turned 16 since it was just an around our small town car for him. Six months later, he side swiped a brick mail box and the insurance company declared it totaled. I was just happy that he wasn't hurt. I will say it was one of the prettiest cars I've ever owned and the top did function extremely well in comparison to other convertibles I have owned over the years."
