1991 Dodge Spirit review from North America

I had very few problems with this vehicle. Th original exhaust had to be replaced at about 80000 miles. The seat belt clip broke because the belt would not always retract and I accidentally closed the door on it. The cable attaching to the tranny linkage broke once. Lastly, a bar in the rear rattled at about 90000 miles.

This car was very reliable. I put over 60000 miles on it and I was the third owner. The only time it broke down on me was when the cable attaching the shifter to the linkage broke. Other than that, only wear parts had to be replaced.

The car was very quick and could reach a fairly high top speed for the motor size. It also handles very well in turns, probably due to the fairly wide tires (wide compared to my last car).

The mileage for this car was usually alittle above what the window sticker said. About 25-30 miles per gallon.

The interior had a good bit of room, but the armrests were cumbersome and uncomfortable. The light around the ignition wouldn't always shut off, but it never created a problem. Replacement interior light bulbs were difficult to find sometimes.

Reaching various engine components was easy, but it was difficult to change the brakes or air filter without special tools.
