What are the major failure items on 100K sebring convertibles?

Question

I'm considering buying a used Sebring convertible -middle age crisis -and the last Chryler product I owned was my Fury III so I'm kind of out of the loop.
What are the things that die prematurely and what were the bad years for sebrings if any - thanks

Answer 1

According to Chrysler, and I'm not making this up, Based on people who take supper care of their car/truck, and those who never raise the hood until the car/truck just quits.The average life expectancy of a car is 50,000 miles. The life expectancy of a truck is 100,000 miles. The answer to you're question is everything and nothing. And more importantly, how well was the car taken care of?And if memory serves me, the Sebring convertible was built under Chrysler name, but was built by Mitsubishi. Not a bad company, but a ***** to work on. If it's a 3 litter, it has a good motor but has oil leak problems. It also has valve guide seals and water pump problems. Be prepared to pony up some money to keep this baby going.

Answer 2

i own a shop,and there really wasn't no bad years for them, but one of the major things that does go out on those is the transmission,they seem to get a few miles on them and that goes, other than that they really aren't bad cars,but be very careful if you look at a high mileage one ,good luck with it hope this helps.

Answer 3

$100K One Hundred Thousand!! for a piece of crap used Sebring. You are mad. They are worth 12 - 20k max. It is one ugly car.

Answer 5
