The 1996 wasn't too bad, small problems but the tranny was slipping when it went back with 60K miles. The '99, that's another story. It spent more time on a lift at the dealer than it did under my behind! I logged 132 days in service in less than 2 years. Mostly drivetrain related. Told Stealer I wanted out (lease) and wanted a new one. Stealer and Chrysler jerked me and refused to do anything. Long story short, wrote a letter to the Attorney General documenting everything, every work order. They not only got Chrysler to buy out my lease but got me 10K in damages. Hello BMW!

It's a shame but I will never buy another american car.
Ha-ha! Good move and welcome to the club! It is a shame though. I havn't owned an American made car since 1985, and the last one I owned was a '67 Pontiac Firebird I bought in 1976. Wish I'd never sold that one.
