PT is Platform Tall. I had a 2003 model that had over 140,000 miles when totalled in an accident. Found a 2007 model with 93,000 miles on it, for a thousand bucks four years ago, needed a clutch and Power steering pump. Now have put 37000 miles on this one with very few problems. Would not own an automatic transmission model, but my manual gets 23 mpg around town and 25 doing 85mph on a highway cruise. I'm a mechanic,65 years old and see alot of PTs in bad condition, poorly maintained. But I am happy with mine, have had a good experience.

I have Replaced almost everything everything on my pt.

I brought used 1998 Chevy Prizm made in Fremont, CA used with low mileage 33K from Estate of 93 years old guy for $2400.00 in Orange County, CA and this car does have problem. I have my friend put new Japanese KYB struct and new plug and used starter that I brought in junk yard for $10.00 power lock motor for $25.00. I put 120K in this chevy and sold it for 2K when I moved to CT.

Had a auto repair center for 40 years and I loved the PT cruiser, I was able to custom order my 42 foot Viking Sport fisherman. 😊 from PT repairs

My Suzuki was great, ran it for 14 years until it needed some work on the suspension, shocks, bushes, control arms after 180k km. It needed about R35k spent on a car that could be sold for R80k with everything fixed so I sold it. There were many offers. Very reliable and cheap to maintain. I don't know why they have a bad reputation in the US, here in South Africa, they've just overtaken VW as the second most popular manufacturer in the country.

Do it. Despite what Kilmer says they are good very reliable cheap cars. They don’t make anything that would suit the American market now but in Japan, parts of Europe and the southern hemisphere they are highly regarded.

One of my co-workers had PT Cruiser. The one redeeming characteristic was that you could put a bicycle in the back behind the front seast without taking off a wheel (from the bike). Another coworker got stuck with a PT Cruiser rental when we were both up in Minnesota. I asked him about it his words were, "It's a terrible car".

Yeah, that’s my problem with publications like Consimer Reports saying that new Kia and Hyundais are some of the best rated vehicles you can buy now. I’d love to think that they’ve turned over a new leaf, and maybe the new ones are better, but I don’t think they have a good enough track record yet for CR to say “oh this brand is quite reliable”.

The dealership gave me a PT Cruiser as a loaner car....I took back roads everywhere I went....felt goofy driving it....and it was uncomfortable, and the shifter was tall and goofy looking....I had a friend that had one...not sure the luck she had with it....

I bought a new 2001 PT. I took care of it and only had a cooling fan fail at 90K.....s real PIA to fixx. A deer killed it at 150K so who know how long it gone. People drive them HARD and help the engine fail...mnine was still going good. I see the issue with the PT you showed!!! Thx

@0:41 Those Mexicans seem to be more capable in "building" burritos than cars, for some unknown reason. The Diesel version were build from 2001 - 2002 in Austria. That is your best bet for build quality. The design quality is still as is.

I don't agree about Suzuki. Suzuki is popular in many countries around the world. And is actually the biggest selling brand in India. They make small, affordable, simple and dependable cars. That's the secret to their success in many parts of the world. The Jimney is a beloved car too.

My neighbor has two PT Cruisers. As far as I know they're both still running. They sold a lot of them around here but I don't see many of them on the roads anymore. My understanding is there's an issue with oil circulation in the engine that contributes to the reliability problems. It's funny, I have a 2007 Chevy HHR that I bought because it was the only car I could find that my mom could easily get in and out of (She had severe mobility issues towards the end of her life). Haven't had much in the way of problems with the HHR which is now at 110K, although rust from salt on the roads where I live is starting to show up here and there (like the exhaust system). The HHR was basically a station wagon / panel van version of the Chevy Cobalt with 40's retro design features. Chrysler sold twice as many PT Cruisers as Chevy sold HHR's but I regularly see the later on the road. There are at least a dozen different ones running around my area.

The test drive included climbing a mountain. As a rare maneuver I had the salesman ride with me. There were a number of things I didn't like about it, but the kicker was it couldn't climb that mountain. I demonstrated to the salesman what my Rodeo was doing and drove the same test track.

Middle TN has some hills, and I was looking at replacing my 91 Rodeo. As it couldn't climb the hill, no way to take it home. I felt this sad for a manual transmission car, not many of them around.

The Pt Cruiser will last as long as a Toyota if you don't expect too much from it and baby it regularly and tell it you love it. Change your coolant and oil and tans fluid regularly , don't over tax it, and above all, keep your expectations in check. It's kinda like driving a 1960's VW bug: Don't expect too much; keep your promises to it; and you wont be left walking.
