Horrible car this is the worst car I have ever own

Where do I began new starter having constant problems with the air conditioning and when you live in Florida and are a senior citizen that's a pretty big deal I'm actually afraid to go anywhere I'm on a first name basis with the AAA guy my car has been towed so many times now transmission is acting up.

Most comfortable car I've owned.

Passenger as well as myself found it comfortable, quiet and easy to drive as well as shop in. Great for a woman and her friends out shopping with a few in the back.

good car misrepresented by seller

Low compression in one cylinder. Salesman said it was a dead plug that was replaced. Facing a $1500.00 repair and dealer will not answer text and salesman will not return call.

Easy to park, easy to load, fun to drive

I don't understand how I missed buying a PT Cruiser long ago. It meets my needs in every was. I have always been partial to Chrysler products due to their excellence in engineering.

Amazing car

This car is in amazing condition considering it's a used car. I've always been a Ford girl but I was impressed with this one and would definitely recommend it to anyone. I like the way it drives and the gas mileage is the bad either.

The oldest car I have and is giving out on me

This car is an older model. It's starting to die on me. I'm putting more money into it than I should by now.
