Overview & Reviews
The Sebring's former trim designations have been replaced with base, Touring and Limited while GTC trim carries over unchanged. Sedan and convertible models receive a restyled front fascia and new wheels, while the coupe gets new dash, door and instrument panel trim. Low-speed traction control now comes on all models equipped with antilock brakes.
- Spacious interiors, solid performance, long list of standard features.
- Lacks refinement, build quality and resale value not comparable to class leaders.

Disappointment - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By nflatow - April 19 - 3:19 pmOUr 2004 Chrysler-Sebring convertible has ONLY 51,500 miles. Yet the front catalytic converter got so hot, that it burned a hole in the converter. That is extremely disappointing. Of course, the warranty for the converter was ONLY 8 years, so we are out $1,000 for a replacement. All the cars I have owned in teh last 50 years, have never had a catalytic converter fail. Shame on Chrysler!

By rauchm404 - December 9 - 6:59 pmI love love love this car!!! Ive been reading the reviews and i dont see the issues people are having. From going from a 1996 nissan "it was a peice of *beep*" I feel like im driving a lexus. For those who are less fortunate and cant afford high end cars this is the way to go! Ive had no problems and have 70,000miles on it. The only things ive had to do is oil changes,fluid top offs, ect. The normally things a car needs!

Owned 1.5 months went 922 miles - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By abouttowne - August 17 - 4:16 pmPurchased what appeared to be a clean car. Beautiful looks and interior great. Daughter first car. Engine failed 900 miles after purchase on the vehicle. When purchasing we checked consumer reports that gave a 4.5 on the rating and did not indicate engine problems. We find out when we googled possible engine trouble. Have read thousands of complaints about the 2.7 engine and safety issues, Chrysler lack of responsibility over defective engine. This is hidden from consumers and these units are still being sold to unsuspecting buyers.

stalls more thean anycar ive owned - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By nonewcar1 - August 8 - 11:34 amthis piece of crap i got from my ford dealership used, stalls more then my 84 mustang, 81 malibu, 91 blazer put together, ive owned a 2003 pt cruiser too, the dealership told me that it was in tip top shape, a car that was made less than ten years ago should not stall out, at all. ive changed the oil once and it has been worse (bought it back in late may of 2011, now being august 2011) I hhave lost faith in chrysler products, this coming from a familiy that bought nothing but chrysler/dodges, the brakes are choppy at best, the interior is the only redeeming quality it has, next time im pressured in buying a car from this century, im going to say heck no! because i have nothing but problems

Worst car I have ever owned, even with reg. maintenance - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By meatballman - May 20 - 11:12 amThis car is a piece of trash. I hate this car so much I will never own another Chrysler or Dodge product, ever. Engine failure at 140000, replaced ball joints and wheel bearings at least 5 times that I can remember in the front, oil sending unit went bad, blower motor resistor went bad, cig lighter wires broke off inside console, sudden surges at red lights and stop signs, sudden stalls at red lights and stop signs. I literally had every single problem people have written about this car. I went to the dealer to look at a used Civic which they sold before we got there, and sales guy got my wife to fall in love with this car. Worst regret ever that I caved.

2004 Chrysler Sebring LX 2.4 DOHC - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By Brian - October 4 - 2:00 amI bought my sebring used in 2008 it had 47,000 miles on it. I must say I love my sebring. There is some reoccurring reviews saying bad things about this car. But the truth is the 2.7l Chrysler engines are junk they blow up. if you have a 2.4 or a 3.0 youll not have a problem. stay away from 2.7l Chrysler motors. The only thing i did to this car because I had to was replace the tires and brakes but only because of normal wear.

2004 Sebring Convertable - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By John Macatee - September 14 - 2:00 amI have not had one problem at all with my Sebring since I bought it new in 2004. It has been reliable, fun, and has given me good fuel economy - 28- 30 mpg on the road about 25 mpg around town, using Copper performance tires. I had a leak in the area or the top back window. the dealer fixed it and I took it through the car wash all the time. I put on 148,000 miles on it in Los Angeles, then I moved it to Hawaii and put on a total of 182,000 miles when my son totaled it! The only thing I had to replace was the front left motor mount, which was caused going airborne for about 30 feet on a wavy road outside of Hilo. I just loved this car and am looking for buy another ASAP!

No real complaints - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By larry - September 7 - 10:43 amBought the little car with tongue in cheek, Have had no complaints to speak of, very comfortable to drive and ride, good performance, great MPG, Just not my idea of a sporty convertible. Drivers window rattles when rolled up and down, Radio intermittent. drips a little transmission fluid. Just quite a few little things for 54K miles. build quality poor but seems to be dependable.
