[RNCRUZR]

There are good and bad things about the PT. I bought a silver '01 limited edition with the same goodies and fewer miles last year for far less, but I bought it from a friend, and it needed body work.

The good thing is it is a cute car and it has a lot of room.

The bad thing is there are known problems. If you look through the other threads in this section, you will find them. Such as: overheating, multifunction control switch failure, wiring harness problems, to mention a few. Also, there are quite a few recall items. If you can find out the serial number, you can plug it in and find out which ones apply to that car. Whatever you do, do not let the engine overheat, as it is made of aluminum and your cylinders will melt like butter.

As for myself, I have had nothing but problems with my car. It is a money pit which emptied out my bank account. I would never, ever buy another PT Cruiser, nor any other Chrysler product, for that matter. But that is just my take. There are plenty of people here who have perfectly good cruisers and are happy as clams.
