#242 of 1272 Just my opinion.... by srinacar

Mar 20, 2000 (4:38 pm)

I leased a 2000 Concorde LXI in September 1999. Until recently, I also had a 1996 Maxima. As far as road noise, I was shocked at how poorly insulated the Chrysler was! It is such a luxurious car, but it is nowhere near as quiet as my Maxima was. My wife drives a 2000 Altima, and despite being smaller and several thousand dollars cheaper, it is every bit as quiet as the Concorde too! As for Chrysler customer service, I could write a book just on the past six months! Very sad, indeed. Oh well, at least the car looks great and I can give it back in two and a half years!

Just another sleazy company! Go to the main site- http://www.blueovalnews.com and see how Ford TRIED to stifle this guy with the info he had about the Cobras lack of true horsepower that Ford WAS aware of!


They're probably all the same. Some are just MORE blatant/sleazy then others!

#245 of 1272 bad engines by clayton4

Mar 23, 2000 (3:54 pm)

I have a 1998 Concorde that I had to replace the engine in at 42000 miles. The engine went bad because of a bad thermostat. Chrysler would not help me with this and I had to pay 4500.00 out of my pocket. This is after I already had to pay 1345.00 for a bad rear seal. I have never dealt with such unprofessional people as I had to at my dealership. This will be my last Chrysler product.

I read your post and I have to say that I am really sorry to hear of your costly dilemma that you are having with your 98 Concorde.
I can't honestly say that I blame you for for saying this will be your last Chrysler product and I am sure that if I had to pay out over $5,800 in repairs with my car that had under 50,000 miles that I wouldn't feel just as you do.
I would like to ask you a question....did you have the extended warranty???.
I have a 99 concorde LXI with 23,500 miles and to date I guess I am one of the lucky ones as my Concorde mechanically has been a very good car but I see the trend of owner posts of the current Concorde model (98and newer)having costly repairs as their cars reach the 50,000 mile mark.
I guess thats why I am such a firm believer in the importance of buying the best warranty the mfg.has to offer.
Again just wanted to say how sorry I am after reading your post and hope that these will be the last costly repairs needed to your car and you can enjoy some trouble free driving in the future.
                    Good Luck

 I hear what your saying. If you have read my
 post earlier thats just what I'm afraid that
 is going to happen with me. My 1999 Concorde
 was right on the mark before running hot.My
 dealership said it was nothing we'll see
 down the road if it was nothing.I take mine
 back next week to have it worked on about the
 awfull road noise. I agree with you 100% on
 their service.

#248 of 1272 1996 Concorde LX advice by tim97

Mar 24, 2000 (3:25 pm)

I have looked for postings about the 1996 Concorde LX but haven't seen any.
I am thinking of purchasing one that looks in great shape with 53,000 miles.


Just wondering if anyone has good or bad experiences with this make and model year.


Thanks,


Tim97

#250 of 1272 Interior Water Sound by scott139

Apr 11, 2000 (9:00 pm)

My 99 Concorde produces a sound like water passing through the heater core when the engine is cold and first started. The sound stops when the engine gets warmed up. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a known solution?

does it sound like a hissing noise? and more so when you lift the hood and listen? if so, then it has something to do with the intake manifold or the plumbing somewhere around it. you local chrysler garage will fix it under warranty. i believe there is a technical service bulletin out on this but i'm not sure.
