CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE2007 · 3.2L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a worsening condition regarding suspension-related components. In the most recent test on May 2026 at 38,371 miles, the car failed just six days prior due to fractured and corroded springs across both axles. While it passed the re-test, the tester still noted corrosion on both rear coil springs. Furthermore, a persistent oil leak has appeared on nearly every record since 2023, indicating an ongoing issue that has not been successfully rectified. At 19 years old, the recorded 38,371 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,020 miles per year. This low usage often leads to age-related degradation of rubber components rather than mechanical wear. The data shows a significant gap between June 2023 and May 2024, where the vehicle covered only 857 miles in a year. This pattern of sitting explains the perishing and deep cracking of the offside rear tyre noted in 2024 and 2025, as rubber dry out when stationary. A buyer must perform a thorough inspection of the entire suspension and steering assembly. The history flags play in the offside steering rack inner joints and a worn offside wheel bearing from 2024, which should be checked for continued deterioration. Given the recent failure of the coil springs, a physical inspection of all springs for structural integrity and corrosion is essential. Additionally, the source of the documented oil leak requires professional diagnosis to determine if it is a minor seal or a more significant engine component failure.
