Thinking of buying the 1997 Chrysler LHS?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1997 Chrysler LHS for sale by us right now. Buying the 1997 Chrysler LHS is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Recalls and complaints

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. NHTSA has 79 owner complaints on file, mostly about fuel system, engine and engine cooling and service brakes. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

What the specs mean

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

The LHS in everyday use

As a large sedan, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.

Try before you buy

Try the LHS on your commute, then decide. Rent the LHS for a week and see how it fits your life. Rent the LHS for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Which one to look for

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Money matters

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
