Do you mean **too** many miles? It is for me, might not be for you. If you are intending to buy one with this many miles get it inspected by YOUR mechanic before purchase. ---

Given that vehicle and brand’s reputation in 2013, I’d say “yes” if you are considering a new vehicle purchase. If it were a Toyota or a Honda I’d say, “just broken in.” ---

Agreed with the others. If you already own it, drive it till it dies. If you’re thinking about buying it, don’t. ---

Cars of that vintage usually make it to 200,000 miles before anything major breaks, but only if you take good care of it and keep up with maintenance. However, I wouldn’t buy that particular model if I was shopping for a used car. The mileage wouldn’t be the deciding factor, the model’s projected reliability would be what stops me from buying it. ---

If that was a year when they were still using a CVT in it then it’s waaaay too many miles. The CVT’S were garbage in fca’s vehicles . ---

I’ve got a 2007 with about that mileage, and the advice I’m getting from transmission shops is to sell it now. That’s even with a newer transmission installed in 2012 under warranty. It’s a cheap Chrysler product with a poor transmission that is very expensive to replace.
