1995 Dodge Avenger review from North America

1.head gasket leaking.

2.power windows shorting out.

3. rear window defrost takes too long.

4. takeoff is "nervous.

5. not comfortable after 1.5~2 hours of driving.

Let me first start off by saying if you buy this car or its counterpart (Chrysler Sebring) and you go over railroad rossings on a day to day basis, you will definitely feel it. I haven't spent any big amount of money for repairs so far, however I have and most likely will spend small amounts. I've spent 270 for gaskets, wires spark plugs and caps. fixed a problem from the engine "misfiring", don't remember the pocket damage, needed a wheel alignment.

And I know most people that already own an avenger will agree that the headlights on this car bug the h*ll out of them. its like it has a lot of mildew setting in, I've noticed this on every dodge avenger that I go by on the freeway. Its funny though I haven't seen it much on Sebrings, don't know why.

And now for the good news:

Gas mileage is good about 27/28 miles a gallon on the freeway.

Good takeoff speed.

About 25/28 dollars fill-up at 2.26/gallon.

A lot of legroom.

Reliable.

Not expensive for repairs.

Sporty at a cheap price.

Drives Fast, Looks Furious.

The perfect sports car.
