1995 Dodge Intrepid review from North America
"Three transmissions in 104,000 miles, terrible"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My mom had this car before me. She had the transmission rebuilt at 60,000 miles. I got it at 64,000 miles, rebuilt the transmission at 90,000 miles. I just sold it for $350 to a transmission mechanic, as the transmission went out, again, at 104,000 miles. No reliability. Stranded out of town both times.
The master power window controls became testy around 80,000 miles.
The power door locks on the back doors quit working around 70,000 miles.
Driver seat worn badly by 90,000 miles.
Paint chipping off by 90,000 miles.
Really a low mileage car.
General comments?
This car is fast, and roomy. On road trips my miles per gallon averaged 28-30, which is great for a full-sized Dodge sedan.
But, I will never again own a Dodge. Being stranded, and then paying $1500 - $2000 for a new transmission, isn't my idea of reliability and comfort.
