The '02 Concorde Limited is a great car! It's like a cross between a Lexus and a Jaguar. I have the 3.5 H.O. aluminum block motor, which has been recently rebuilt. It's fully loaded and looks amazing in black. I highly recommend a set of 235/55rs/17 Goodyear Eagle RS tires. The difference in ride quality is absolutely stunning and amazing compared to any other brand I've ever driven on.

Vehicle year: 2003
Well, it's great to hear that you've had this car for almost 8 years and it's still one of the best cars you've ever owned! It's impressive that you've driven it for under 60000 miles and haven't had any major repairs. Although, it's a shame to hear that the black trim on the hood close to the windshield has faded and required frequent buffing, and that there are a few cracks on the driver's seat. However, it's great to know that replacing the climate control was easy and cheap with a $30 ebay part!

Vehicle year: 2000
I bought the car in 2001 with 60,000 miles already on it. Since then, it has been driven mainly back and forth to work every day, which quickly added up the miles. In 2006, I gave it to my sister with 260k miles on it, who unfortunately had a few mishaps with it. Despite the damages, the car still runs beautifully. Although the engine has been rapped on a lot and some parts have broken, it has proven to be a reliable car. It is a massive car, so it doesn't have quite as much acceleration as I would like, but it still gets an impressive 31 mpg on the highway.

Vehicle year: 2000
I purchased the Concorde exactly a year ago. While searching for a car for my daughter, I stumbled upon this beauty at a dealer in mint condition with only 42K miles for just $8k. What a great deal! Please note that I am comparing this car to my wife's Lexus, so keep that in mind when looking at my ratings. By the way, my kids prefer riding in the Concorde over the Lexus. If you are considering buying this car, please check the brakes. The factory rotors can be problematic, but I was aware of this and factored it into my purchase price. The cost of replacing four rotors and shoes was $750, so please be advised. Otherwise, I have had no trouble with the car in the last 15k miles, unlike what other posts may suggest. I highly recommend over-maintaining Chryslers, especially the transmission. Also, please note that there is a front differential that often gets overlooked. Overall, the Concorde is a great value for your money.

Vehicle year: 1998
The 3.2L engine provides great power, and the leather interior is quite attractive. The Infinity sound system is superior, and the mileage on the road is an impressive 30.7mpg. The only major repairs needed were to replace the ignition switch, which had a short in it, and the air conditioning evaporator, which developed a leak. While the battery can be difficult to access at the front passenger wheel well, the car makes up for it with a huge trunk and an overhead console that includes a trip meter, compass, mpg calculations, and distance till empty features.
Are you having problems with your Chrysler Concorde?
Cullen Renner 2025-10-21
Vehicle year: 1994
Although this car was purchased from a lease buyback with low miles, it has unfortunately been a nightmare. However, I have taken care of all necessary repairs, including a new air conditioning unit still under warranty, a second air conditioning unit, a new transmission at 43,000 miles, a new track system at 30,000 miles, new brakes at 50,000 miles, and new plugs and wires at 54,000 miles. Additionally, I have replaced the water pump and timing belt at 56,000 miles. Despite these challenges, I am confident that the car is in good condition and ready for its next owner. Best of luck to the new owner!
Tristin Kreiger 2025-10-20
Vehicle year: 1998
I have owned this car for only 4 days and it has already broken down on me. Despite this unfortunate incident, I still believe that this car is a great choice if purchased from a reliable source. It appears that the car had a pre-existing major problem, and unfortunately, the dealer was not forthcoming about it. Although I purchased the car as-is, I was under the impression that it was running smoothly and did not have any major issues. It is disheartening to see people taking advantage of others during these tough economic times. I feel frustrated and disappointed by this experience, but I am confident that I will be able to resolve this issue and find a solution.
Loy Crona 2025-10-02

My mom bought the car brand new and unfortunately, it has had several problems with the brakes, rack and pinion, sensors, and a/c. Although the warranty covered most of these issues, the problems keep coming every year and it's always the same ones. As a result, she has decided not to buy a Chrysler again and I share her sentiment. It can be frustrating to have a car that spends more time in the repair shop than on the road.
Dusty Larson 2025-09-27
Vehicle year: 1998
We purchased our car back in 2006. Although we have faced some challenges, we have learned a lot from them. For instance, to access the battery, you need to jack up the car and remove the front wheel. Additionally, changing the headlight bulbs can be a bit tricky. We have also had to replace the brake lines and the front driver's side seat. The gas gauge and headlights have required some maintenance, but with proper care, they have been working well. Lastly, we have noticed that the windshield design can cause discomfort while driving. Despite these issues, we have enjoyed our car and the memories it has helped us create.
Chadd Lakin 2025-09-20
Vehicle year: 1994
Although the automatic transaxle of my car malfunctioned after only 88000 miles, I am confident that this is not a reflection of the overall reliability of Chrysler vehicles. While I am disappointed with this particular experience, I remain convinced that Chrysler produces high-quality and dependable cars. I will certainly consider purchasing another Chrysler vehicle in the future.
