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.

The Engine is Dead - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By havetobuyanothercar - June 20 - 12:33 pmAfter several problems with this vehicle, I am giving up. The fuses tend to blow - windshield wiper fluid, windows, etc. and are "specialty" fuses that you cant replace. The transmission started sticking and now, the engine is dead - busted a rod out of the blue. Spoke to three mechanics - when I told them it was a Sebring, they all said, "Yeah, they tend to do that."

Sebring - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By Dan - September 11 - 7:57 amThis car is no fun to drive. The four cylinder version has absolutely no pick-up, although the RPMs always come close to redlining. Overall, a sad car to drive.

Poor quality - poor warranty - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By Dont_Buy_Chry - December 20 - 10:43 amMy wifes dream car. Definitely not mine. Car looks nice, but thats it. 2.7L V6 is okay but stalls & sputters in summer (when youd like to be driving the most). Very finicky w/fuel brands here in NE. After 2mos going back & forth w/regional mgr. they replaced fabric top ("weave direction"/wasnt sewn correctly?) Cabin fan relay (AC) died on our anniversary trip-! Dealer couldnt fix terminals on rear defrost after 4 trips & then wouldnt warranty their own repairs. (fixed myself w/flexible conductive epoxy) Drivers door still isnt adjusted correctly. Daimler Benz has surely picked up a ailing pony in Chrysler. I will NEVER EVER buy a mopar again.

Lemon - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By Chris - June 19 - 2:33 pmIve had this car less than two years and have replaced many parts. So far Ive replaced all new rotors, brakes, 9 headlights, 2 turn signals, 2 brake lights, and fan control. I just found out I need new shocks now, and the list goes on. In all the years I have been driving I have never had a problem car like this. All my friends also say they have had issues with their Sebrings. Im going straight to a Honda dealership to get a real car.

Paid for it twice! - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
By Richard Shadetree - May 29 - 10:37 pm200K+ miles in 13 years and its near ready for the junk yard. Nightmare to work on because the cab-forward design leaves no room for belt, hose, and accessory maintenance. Timing belts are expensive to replace every 100K miles. Cabin doesnt have heat because the coolant pipes rusted, body work is rusting out, under-body rusting out, and engine bay rusting out. I did not know that a plastic coolant outlet housing could rust out, but it did and blew coolant all over the top of the engine. Burns a quart of oil every 1,500 miles. Coolant "magically" disappears overnight without trace or regular interval. Thirsty GREMLINS! Completely replaced the exhaust--headers to tailpipe-- and front suspension-- including CV drive assemblies, control arms, wheels bearings, etc.
