  • A Ford man buys a Chrysler - 1997 Chrysler LHS
    By -

    As much as I love Ford cars/trucks, I have owned 5 in my short 20 year existence on the earth, and I liked them all, but when I went to purchase my 6th vehicle, I said to myself that i would consider other makes of cars, but No GM products, bleh! My first look for a new car, a 1999 Ford Escort, it was a smokers car, too many small things made me question it, and I decided to look at other car lot, and I looked for something under $3,000. I found a Chrysler LHS, I loved it from the start, drove it, looked it over, BS-ed with the dealer, got them to knock off a $100 or so bucks, I drove it 250 miles to home, no problems,a good Chrysler product for sure, nice luxury car, forget Cadillac!

  • Nice Car - 1997 Chrysler LHS

    I bought my LHS 3 months ago and am very happy with it. The trunk could easily hold at least 4 bodies :) its huge! The back seat has more than enough leg room for any size passenger. This auto looks classy from inside and out, you would never know it was 10 yrs old from the design. Rides great, and definitely comfort was in mind when they designed the interior. The only thing I am finding wrong with this auto is the gas mileage, I average about 13 in town and 21 on the highway. This must be just my auto though because the other posts here say they get around 20 in town? This is one great looking auto and the ride is smooth and soft.

  • Second time around! - 1997 Chrysler LHS
    By -

    In 97 I leased this car for two years and loved it. Ten cars later, I couldnt get this LHS out of my mind, so I bought one with 100,000 miles on it last month. New tires and $2500 in mechanical repairs made it just like I remembered it. Too much? Sure, but I LOVE THIS CAR! Its a dream to drive, the seats are comfortable, the cabin is huge and so are the moon roof and trunk. The styling is timeless. Recent British guests were amazed at this car and couldnt believe it was 10 years old. After driving a bunch of new utilitarian cookie-cutter cars the last eight years, Im finally happy again in my 1997 LHS.

  • I will miss it - 1997 Chrysler LHS
    By -

    I had my LHS for about 7 years. I have had many cars over the years and I have to say that this Chrysler was my favorite. It had a great ride and was extremely comfortable. On top of this, the gas mileage was better than I or most people thought it would be. The car was reliable and I enjoyed driving it quite a bit. I had to give it up when the expenses to repair it were more that its value. Shouldnt complain....it had 221,000 miles on it at the end. It was a great car. Since Chrysler stopped making the LHS in 2001, I decided to find and buy one of those. The "new" one has big wheels to fill, but it looks promising.

  • LHS: A good buy! - 1997 Chrysler LHS
    By -

    Since weve owned it, weve had no problems whatsoever. The leather seats could be a little more durable, but maybe we should have used leather conditioner more frequently. We really like its get-up-and-go! When you need a burst of passing speed, this car delivers. The fuel mileage is 26-28 mpg, but its not bad for the comfort you get.

    Was happy with the LHS. At 100,000 miles I suddenly had several problems, sucked in intake gasket, AC coil had to be replaced, automatic climate control had to be replaced. After approx. $2000 worth of repairs it was good again until I traded it at 130,000 miles. I traded if for a like kind, 2003 Concorde Limite, what a mistake that has been!!!!! Wish I had my LHS back with its 130,000 miles!

  • My first Chrysler: a Winner! - 1997 Chrysler LHS
    By -

    We bought this May 1997 LHS as a used car in Sept. of 1999. We had retired and wanted to travel in comfort. This car has more than filled the bill. Only "troubles" have been waking up to a dead battery and waiting for rural road service for a flat tire. Oh, one minor nuisance is that the gasket on the passenger door occasionally slips off track. The car runs perfectly on regular gasoline. We have it serviced regularly at Dover Chrysler. Interior - and leather - is pristine. Exterior is gleaming and impressive. Always garaged. Our custom is to keep a car no longer than 8 years so we are reluctantly looking for a newer car.

  • Chrysler LHS - 1997 Chrysler LHS
    By -

    This car is one of the most comfortable autos I have owned over 25 cars from MB to Cadillac. It handles well. I have had only one service needed. An engine light came on in driving through North Dakota. It was a faulty switch and was fixed in under an hour while we waited in a little town. We have driven it from California to Minnesota to yellowstone to Cal to Florida. Montains, desert, everywhere. Our last trip from Vacaville to Orlando (3150 miles) averaged over 27 MPG for whole trip. And my wife and I both hae a heavy foot. It is a great car.
