  Wont Buy Another - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Keri - May 21 - 11:06 am

  I couldnt wait to get a PT after the bad taste my previous dodge had left...however, this car is just as bad if not worse. In 2006 extensive engine work had to be done and in 2009 extensive work had to be done to the engine again.........the car only has 55k miles and the oil is changed as it is supposed to be.......wish I knew what the lemon laws were......this will be my last Dodge/Chrysler auto!

  Mini-Van Meets Economy Car - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Heather Serlick - May 15 - 10:00 am

  The best way to describe this vehicle is smaller then a mini-van but larger then an economy car. You get great versatility with a fuel economical vehicle. Perfect for people that need cargo space but dont want a gas hog. I would recommend this vehicle to any lifestyle.

  Perfect car for me! - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Vanillla - February 19 - 10:00 am

  I am a traveling saleman. This car is the perfect size to get me through traffic and is very comfortable for a long haul. The turbo make it easy to merge onto the highway and the gas mileage is good. If you need a traveling office, this is the perfect car. Its a car or truck when you need it.

  Worst Car Ever - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Christina - February 7 - 12:36 pm

  I had a 2001 Hyundai Elantra before this car and never had as many issues as Ive had with the PT Cruiser. Granted I purchased it used, but within two days of purchasing it the mechanical issues began. Ive had to replace the torque converter, battery, PVC hose, a torn CV joint and front left axle. It makes a grinding noise between 45-60mph, vibrates during idle and starting first thing in the morning, and this morning it almost stalled on me while driving 75mph. Its also very uncomfortable. I feel like I am sitting on a bag of rocks. This is the only car Ive driven where you have to push up for the wipers, not down and the window controls are in the center of the vehicle.A true lemon

  Car Guy gets his gal a car. - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Ace Gere - January 30 - 3:53 pm

  I remember this cars info commercial. I really liked it then. Then the WRX came out and I forgot about the PT. Now that Im married with a child the PT looked like a good choice. But, my wife did not want a hatchback. So, we were looking at small cars like Hyundai Sonata or Dodge Stratus. Loved the Sonata but out of my price range. (broke college student) When an old friend at a dealership pointed it out I thought my wife would shoot it down. Instead the willy old carsales man gets her into a Turbo Touring and she fell in love. We could not afford that one without braking the bank. They did have a certified used Non-turbo Touring. we bought it for less than $12,000. we love it.

  Cute and Fast Dream Cruiser 3 - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By SandeeW - January 13 - 10:00 am

  I have only had this car 2 months. I love it. It is gorgeous and very peppy. My biggest gripe is the VERY wide turning radius, making it difficult to park. Also, I think the gas mileage could be better. 0-60 is much quicker than I ever thought. It takes some getting used to, to sit so high up in the seats, but the leather seats in this DC3 are very comfortable. I love the hot rod look (low in front) and the chrome trim. Sirius radio is a nice touch too. I guess if I redesigned it, I would want the seats to sit lower, almost like a sports car, but the retro look is what I fell in love with. This car turns heads! Then of course maybe its me?!

  Love my "gal" - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By ylns - January 2 - 10:00 am

  My "gal," and yes, she has a name, that is tradition, you understand, is my "retirement" vehicle, and the first brand new car I have ever owned. I have driven her in all kinds of environments----mountains, desert, city driving, freeway trips, and she has done a grand job for me. On a road trip I got 26 mpg overall, not real impressive, but had a huge variety of types of roads, etc. including some real mountain climbs, so felt she did herself proud. My "gal" has no turbo, just really a rather Plain Jane, but is just a dream to drive. Would make the same choice again. I love my "gal."

  I love my PT GT! - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By deborrini - December 13 - 1:03 pm

  I love love love my PT Cruiser GT. It is fun to drive and extremely comfortable. I have a pretty bad lower back, and this is the only car Ive ever owned that I can ride in for more than 20 minutes and not be in pain. Its also nice to see people turn their heads to look at my PT Cruiser when Im going down the road.
