Overview & Reviews

The Sebring sedan debuts for 2001 along with redesigned versions of the coupe and convertible. A new, more powerful V6 joins the enlarged four-cylinder, with a manual five-speed available in the coupe. The Autostick automanual is still an option for those who can't decide where they stand on the shift issue, but only on upscale LXi models with the V6. An Infinity premium sound system with an in-dash CD changer is also new this year.

• Value packed, powerful V6, sleek shape.

• Poor resale value, no manual transmission for sedans.

  Worst Car Imagineable - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
  By sjc3 - November 7 - 7:14 pm

  Bought my 01 Sebring with 75k mikes on it. After two months the heater and air conditioning stopped working, which was only the beginning of my problems. Once it hit 85k miles, it was needing $300 plus repairs every month - everything from leaking water pumps, to broken axle and ball joint to leaking fuel rails. Dont, dont, dont buy this car!

  If you love sinking money on poor made cars... - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
  By kovacic_frank - January 23 - 1:48 pm

  It had about 74k miles. Since day one i had problems. Heater went out and windows would freeze up and would only blow cold air, The headlights would flicker on and off, the cd changer when in the cold would make some robotic squeal and change the cds at random. clock would die out. The car would not start half the time and the other half id be driving and the oil temperature would skyrocket into overheating. Twice on the highway my car would almost catch fire. my ball-join broke off the car and had to get towed going 12mph. and last but not least, the 2.7 engine died on me at 80k. all this happend in a span of 8 months. I will never buy a Chrysler again

  Do NOT buy this car - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
  By Jennifer - October 15 - 9:03 am

  I have had nothing but trouble with this car. Since I bought this car I have had to replace the wheel bearings on the drivers side, The HVAC unit went out, the key was stuck in the ignition and could not be removed until removed by a mechanic, Motor for the Air conditioning went, Not to mention the awful oil leak that it has and has been fixed twice. The car is now in the shop for something else to be repaired. I was warned about this engine that was put into this car and I did not listen. Keep in mind that all of this stuff that needed to be replaced was only in a three year period. This car has made up my mind about Chrysler cars. Never will I buy another one.

  Avoid this Sedan! - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
  By Smiles - May 10 - 12:36 pm

  The first three years were fine, not great but managable. We did have to take it in for a few warranty items to a local dealer, CD player, running roughly, etc. Now there are too many major problems to list. We were originally planning on driving it until my son could drive but I dont think this lemon will hold out. I also dont want to put my son in a car that we cant depend on. Its bushings are bad, the interior dash light rarely works, it is leaking oil, the inside "chrome" looking handles is flaking off, the leather on the steering wheel is gone, excessive brake dust on front.You get the picture. Junk! Too bad we bought the loaded version - what a waste of money.

  My car only has 51,000 mi. on it and I have to replace the engine! There are more people that have had this problem as well! do not get this car! unless you enjoy putting $5,000 into your car just to have it die on you again.

  dont get one - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
  By gwk222 - July 2 - 2:00 am

  My Sebring has been towed in three times in the span of 31k miles. Service is poor when it is towed in. No one returns calls at Bayshore Chrysler or at Grand Prix Chrysler in Hicksville, NY. No wonder theyre busy. If all Chryslers break down as often as mine they could stay open 24/7 and never run out of cars to work on.

  The most horrible car I have ever driven - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
  By Travis from TN - February 13 - 2:00 am

  This car is horrible. I had to have the transmission replaced at 111 miles. Since then I have had it back to the dealer 8 times for problems with acceleration associated with the new transmission. I have had to have the multi-function switch (turn signal) replaced, twice. I have also had to have the car checked out for clunking noises when I turn, stop, or am at a red light. Chrysler says that these are all characteristics of the car, therefore they are not responsible to repair them, even though they notice the same sounds and feelings as I do. Why would a car be designed to act this way? I have never driven another car I despise so much.
