This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Good looks and performance, wide range of body styles, exceptional value.
Cons:
  • No manual transmission in the sedan, build quality and resale value not up to Japanese standards.

    I have had nothing but wonderful experiences with the except. The only faults are no lights in the Glove Box and a prop hood. Strange to say that on a lower class sebringThere were automatic headlights but not on mine. I dont knwow why

  • GTC 5-Speed - 2002 Chrysler Sebring

    I have had my GTC for a year and a half. Its a great car, fun to drive. It was a Chrysler Executive Vehicle that was never titled until I bought it. I have put 25,000 miles on it since I got it. It drives great and I love the 5-speed. The interior is a little plain though. It would be nice to have pockets on the backs of the seats for maps, etc. I have not had ANY trouble with the car at all. I have only had it into the dealership once and that was because the passenger window was sluggish when putting down the top. It wasnt all the way down when the top was!

    Electrical problems: From day one there was an intermittant problem with the headlight switch causing the dash lights to go on and off. Then the blower motor relay went out leaving me with only high speed on the blower. Next was the automitic door locks. Currently the doors will not lock except with the remote. This is all within the first 60,000 miles. Owned severl Toyota products and never had these kind of problems.

  • Just OK car - 2002 Chrysler Sebring

    The body is very sold. Build quality seems very nice. Has some of the most comfortible seats ever. The 4 wheel disk brakes are excellent! The transmission in this car is junk! It clunks, sometimes wont downshift, and other times downshifts at the wrong time so the car lurches violently. Sometimes it wont go into gear even when its in drive, then will drop into gear with a loud clunk. This is with only a little over 10k miles. BEWARE! Their 7 year warranty thing is a scam! You can take the car back 50 times and their so called "Specialists" will tell you theres nothing wrong with it. This is with the 4 speed automatic with AutoStick.

  • So far, so good - 2002 Chrysler Sebring

    I bought my car due to being pressured by my brother, who sold vehicles at the place I bought the car. It came fully loaded and included a pretty hefty price tag, but I am so glad that I did! I love this car!

    Ride is a little hard, as well as road noise in this LX version. Transmission began slipping in first 6 months, dealer replaced some pump, now doing same again. Had a 98 Cirrus with similar problem, but not until 85k.

  • 2001Sebring LXI - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    Was able to buy it for about $100 less than TMV in 3/01, beginning of recession. Two problems with build quality: (i)the trunk leaked and it took them two tries to fix it (now its fine) and the rear window defroster broke (they fixed it right the first time). Since then, it is a lot of fun to drive! Powerful and grips the road very well. Big enough for three kids in back. 4-disc CD player works great. Blasting music with the top down, whether in traffic or on the open highway is still a thrill (Im 46). I look so happy that people talk to me at stop lights. Very glad to have it, recommend it highly.

    Bought as a used "program" car, rental turn in. Has been great, two problems, steering wheel leather shot (replaced under warranty)Air Bag light always going on - been to dealer twice. Otherwise very nice car - would have loved a Miata but nowhere to put the kids!

  • My aching back - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    Fantastic Car. Great bang for the buck. I could not get comfortable in the seats (they gave me a back ache) and thus returned the car. If you like the seats, youll love the car.

  • WOW. I love this GTC - 2002 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    I really like the new Sebring GTC. I was considering buying a Mustang until I drove the Sebring. It rides better, feels more powerful, and has real rear seating.The gearing for the 5 speed trans is perfect. Good power across the band. The top is really easy to lower and raise. The cover for the top is also very easy to install. I have owned a mustang, corvette, and trans am. I never considered this car until it was offered with a 5 speed.
