  A Rare Bird Indeed - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By acclaimed - December 25 - 9:49 pm

  I purchased my 2004 Chrysler Sebring (base) 2.7L V6 in September and the second day after the purchase I noticed an oil leak that my car had, we fixed it with ease. The seller dropped the price down to $1,000 because I had cash money, but the air condition didnt work on the first day of purchase, but all it need is an A/C compressor and recently my my check engine light illuminated because of my ignition coil that I replaced and bought some new spark plugs. However, sometime when I drive it hard the engine light illuminate because of the ignition coil that I purchased that triggered the engine light the first time.

  If you are looking to buy one, read this first. - 2004 Chrysler Sebring

  First thing you need to understand is that yes, there has been issues with oil sludge in these engines in the past. However, I very seriously relate this directly to brand/type of oil more than bad design. If it was an engineering error, why then do soooo many of these surpass 200k+ miles. Have a competent mechanic check the engine before you buy the car. If no sludge, then you are good to go. Just use Shell Rotella 5w30 from that point on and you will not have issues. ( And I do not work for nor "endorse" Rotella, just stating the pure fact) Now, engine aside, the rest of this car is fantastic! Touring model ride is a bit on the stiff side though. (Compared to the base & LX models)

  Best Mistake I ever Made. - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By fionafirst - March 9 - 9:09 pm

  I had 5 grand to send on a used car at the age of 18, and went to the dealership and test drove this lovely convertible. Before doing any Vehicle History Reports I bought the car, it was a gut decision. It was a stupid risk to take but I am sure gald I took it. The car has power, dont let the low displacement number fool you, it can get up and go quickly The road noise is low with the top up, and the roof never leaks even in the worst rain Nothing has broken other than the rear ball joints, only 200 to replace Its even fun to drive for a mid size car, and comfortable for 4 adults Youll love cruising around in the summer evenings, and have you seen how good this car looks?? DAMN!

  Nice for the price - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By fuzzy82 - November 18 - 7:37 pm

  While it is certainly no sports car or luxury car my sebring returns nice gas mileage, solid performance for what it is, and in 97000 miles has required nothing outside of routine maintenance. There are no fancy features like most new cars and no hi-tech info system but the simple straight forward controls have never failed to function as intended. Its a nice car for the price just dont expect a high end car at an entry level cost.

  Not good for all, great for enthusiats - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By kiaitools - August 19 - 12:31 pm

  I bought it at 2005 with 30000 miles on it, now it has 110000 and this car woks great, I just needed to change brake pads, motor and transmisión mounts, that is normal maintenance for a car: This car is great, is made with high quality standards but take care becasuse is not is a car for all, this car requieres delicate maintenance to work well or will turn in to a piece of crap in few months. I use only syntethic oil and each service is made according manual, before to buy check very well if the original owner had made all it´s services, all turbo motors needs special attention to keep well

  Disappointment - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By nflatow - April 19 - 3:19 pm

  OUr 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!

  2004 Sebring Convertable - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By John Macatee - September 14 - 2:00 am

  I 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 am

  Bought 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.

  Loving my car! - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By tiffany - August 29 - 9:48 pm

  So we bought my car in 2008 while I was still prego with my daughter. The best ever, only real problem is the get up and go or trying to get battery changed out. i had to get new battery last week which was aug 2010 it was 140 to do that due to the fact that u have to take driver side tire off. its a good car i feel safe in it with my daughter lots of room just wish my windows were tinted. dont let it have hail damage because if its on the roof they will total your car and cant fix it but i love it its slick and nice and easy to maneuver. looks slick and nice keep up on the oil changes your car will be fine. i recommend this car dunno bout other peoples reviews ive had no problems at all dunno

  Six years and still going - 2004 Chrysler Sebring
  By Milli - May 13 - 10:28 am

  I bought my car barely used back in 2004, and Im still driving it in 2010. Nary a leak to date, with fairly minor problems...the engines been fine, but its other stuff, like the low front profile - Ive learned to be careful not to pull in too far with nose in parking - the bumper catches and pulls loose), or the comparitively fragile motor mount. My biggest complaint is the front passenger window - its temperamental. It works in cold weather but not in hot...I live in Phoenix. Enough said? All told though, its been a fun six years and Im hoping for at least a few more.
