Great Little Car - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By Jay - February 4 - 9:42 pmThis is really a fun car to drive. I have the navigation system which is a must have. Sound system (with 6 CD player) is cool. Convertible top works at the push of a button and have had no trouble with it at all... This is a real college/entering the work force type car for singles. The editor here must have had the one in a million lemon because this is a great little car!

GOING BACK TO GM - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By Disappointed - January 17 - 3:35 pmHad an Olds for 10 years w/NO problems. Im already looking to dump this Sebring. While so far its running fine, Ive had stupid little things to deal with. My odometer light has gone out, the cigarette lighter wouldnt charge my cell phone and now the cylinder has totally come out in one piece. To fix these little things requires a full dismantle of the front dash. Had an idiot light regarding fuel come on recently too and reset itself after 20 starts. What that was about - still dont know. And the horn on this car stinks. Can give it a good lean while the car is parked and not running but try to do that while driving and it gives off a staccato toot that hardly gets you heard.

Excellent Car - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By Steve - December 30 - 1:16 pmI was reading the reviews on this car before I bought it, sloppy handling, unrefined drivetrains?? I drove 8 hours straight in this car, usually my back starts to hurt or something, but not in this car, very comfy, also at speeds upwards of 95-100 mph, I couldnt even hear the engine, a very quiet ride. Two things that I do notice are low gas mileage (but thats the same for all gasoline powered engines), and also the 2.7 V-6 is a high-speed engine (churning 200 hp and only 190 torque), but if you dont mind shifting down to get back to the top-end, then it is alright. In closing, I doubted my purchase because the other reviews say the doors are going to fall off, but not anymore!

Problems - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By Tom Van Sickle - December 22 - 1:02 pmI had 200 miles on car and was out of town when the passenger right window would not go back up. Was on a cold Saturday and could get no help. The 800 number refered me to some window repair places that I was to pay to have car repaired..could not find repair places. The car was taken to the dealership..they got the window up and ordered part..had to wait 3 days. One week after the "repair" the same window is doing the same thing. It is also difficult to get key out of ignition if the shift is not perfectly in place..have to jiggle shift to get key out. I traded in a 2002 Seabring and wish I still had it!!!!!

Sebring - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By RBSFINDUM2 - December 19 - 7:18 pmI needed to get this for a payoff for a 98 Buick Riviera that was totaled. So far I love it. It is a good all around sedan. The dual overhead cam makes for enough h/p for the basic driving. I think it will have good- enough gas mileage for all the trips I enjoy. Big trunk, roomy seats and cruise control is all I need for a trip car. It will last for at least 100,000 miles. I now have 2146 on it.

Fun for the Family - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By RBR - December 18 - 2:53 amWe have 3 small kids and a Honda minivan. I traded in an Accord for the Sebring. I bought the car for my wife and I to enjoy and still have something big enough to meet the demands of a second car for a family of 5. We primarily plan to use the car for "date nights/weekends" and time together, and I use it as a work car. With the rebates and great honda trade-in values we got the car at a ridiculously low price. We rented a Sebring in Hawaii on our honeymoon and 8 years later we feel like we are back on that honeymoon.

A Bargain Mid-size Car - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By Oldengineer - December 5 - 2:38 amI recently purchased an 05 Sebring Touring-Signature Edition. For the money, Camry and Accord couldnt even get close on price. Quality, fit, and finish are excellent. Car has the 2.7 V6, giving it decent performance and excellent fuel economy. Ride and handling are very good. The body styling is very eye-catching and looks great in a dark blue mettalic color. The car is very quiet on the interstate and solidy built. The dash styling, while improved on the 05, still doesnt look as modern as Accord or Camry. However, since, with rebates and the special package, the car cost about $8k less than a comparable Japanese car, I couldnt pass it up.

Zero Defects playcar - 2005 Chrysler Sebring
By Ralph Robinson - December 4 - 4:58 pmHave had a Sebring Convertible for 6 months and have had zero defects. It is a terrific looking car, inside and out, and turns heads. I am not looking for a big power car and find the 2.7 liter engine perfectly acceptable for my normal driving.It is basically a fun/play car for me. Handling has been fine At my age I dont push a car to the limit anymore!
