1998 Dodge Intrepid review from North America
"Don't waste the time or money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator fans stop working at 36000 miles.
At 54000 miles the driver's door electrical stopped working.
Crankshaft and camshaft sensors stopped working.
Tension pulley fell off at 58000 miles.
At 78000 miles the engine blew in my driveway.
Trunk pistons will not keep trunk open.
General comments?
I religiously change the oil and filters in this car.
When I inquired about a replacement engine my local dealer told me that they already had 24 engines on backorder.
This car is a comfortable car to drive on long trips, however the expense and time to repair it make it unacceptable to own. I will never buy another Dodge product because of this car.
