Overview & Reviews

Even though it was revamped last year, the Sebring line receives a number of changes. An Enthusiast package for the sedan debuts, as will a sporty GTC convertible later in the model year. And to put the Sebring ragtop in reach of more buyers, a lower-priced LX version with the 2.4-liter inline four becomes available.

• Good looks and performance, wide range of body styles, exceptional value.

• No manual transmission in the sedan, build quality and resale value not up to Japanese standards.

  Topless - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By Marie - July 10 - 12:02 pm

  Love to drive my Sebring convertible. Great performance for 70,000 miles on it. Had to have transmisson solenoid replaced because my dog put the gear shift in reverse when we were in the carp pool lane going 80mph. Nothing happened immediately, however 2 years later we noticed leaks under the engine. My husband thought it was master cylinder fluid leaking. The transmission was covered under warranty. Excellent highway gas mileage on long trips and exceptional comfort.

  Dangerous Brake Problem - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By pinehead - May 20 - 4:47 pm

  I bought this car new. With 2 weeks or purchase I noticed that the brakes were sketchy when the roads were wet. You could slam the pedal to the floor and the car just wanted to keep on going. The worst issue was when there was snow or ice on the road. I brought this car in to the dealership twice to have them check the brakes. They claimed there was nothing wrong. The back wheels would slip horribly in the snow. There was almost no control of this vehicle in those conditions. I went off the road twice with it driving 5 miles and hour. Chrysler refused to admit to a problem or do anything about it. I has 3 others drive the thing in snow and they all agreed that there was a problem .

  GTC 5 SPEED: UPDATE - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By Shifter - April 6 - 3:07 pm

  Update: 44,000 miles. My "black-on- black beauty" 5 speed manual continues to be just that. The mirror-like finish remains deep and clear, and still maintains like-new appearance. The last tank of fuel (city driving) yielded 23 mpg, and that fluctuates in a range of 21-23 city--all on original plugs. With the exception of two switch replacements in the heat-ac blower, the car has been absolutely mechanically excellent. One change noted, however, is the presence in Winter, when the cabin is cold, of loud squeaky sounds where the top meets the windshield frame. As the cabin heats up the sound diminishes in loudness. Handling remains tight & I love the 5 speed control in snow and rain.

  My Excellent Sebring Coupe! - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By Mindy - March 31 - 9:07 am

  I purchased my 02 Sebring LXI coupe used with just over $100,000 miles on it and I was going to be the 3rd owner. I was trading up from my 1997 Sebring coupe. Yep, thats right. I loved my 97 so much I was determined to get another. All maint. records came w/car and throughout very little troubles. And I have done nothing to it but new tires and oil changes in the 2 years I have owned it. It now has 125,000 miles and runs great. I feel so lucky to have such a great car. They are EXCELLENT cars, I highly recommend. Chrysler and other domestic cars are all I will ever own.

  Whats everyone complaining about? - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By car_auctioneer - March 1 - 2:54 pm

  I have a 2002 Sebring LX 4 cylinder. I bought it from a "little old lady" with 5k miles on it a few years ago. It now has 50,000 and I couldnt be happier. I dont understand all the bad press, this car has been trouble-free except for the heater blower motor resistor, a $20 part I installed myself. Otherwise, nothing, not even the battery has gone bad. Has decent acceleration for a 4, and I get 29 highway and 25 average. I think the styling is great and as used car values go, you wont find a better bang for your buck. 6 cyl buyers beware: as with all 2.7 6 cyl Chryslers, make sure you CHANGE YOUR OIL regularly. One of the best Ive owned, and I"ve had a BUNCH!

  Bad Transmission or Wind Noise - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By Addison - December 27 - 2:00 am

  I must have bought the runt of the litter. From the day I bought the car there were several things that had to be fixed, incorrect bezel on the gear shift (mine has the autostick but the bezel was for the regular transmission), drivers power window motor needed replaced, drivers seat loose, and heated seats did not function. Took it on a trip to New Orleans from Indiana the first month and noticed a noise at 70mph. After several times in service, including a three week transmission re-build they determined that it was not the transmission but wind noise and could not fix the problem.

  FANTASTIC FIND - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By Sissy - December 8 - 10:00 am

  This car rides so smooth and quiet. Its really hard to believe its a convertible! We had a Mazda Miata, which we loved very much. Our Sebring is so much more roomier and smoother riding. A dream come true!

  our new sebring convertible - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
  By m s s - December 1 - 10:00 am

  very impressed with how much fun to drive and overall fit and finish. surprisingly quiet on open highway with top up or down. loaded with features especially compared with all the other convertibles out there to choose from, many costing thousands more.
