1995 Dodge Avenger ES Coupe review from North America
"Beautiful Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the front struts in addition to the right wheel hub bearing. I was told that the wheel bearing was causing the "humming" sound the tire makes when the car accelerates, but the noise is still there, and no one seems to know what is causing it. I even bought new tires to no avail. (If anyone knows what could be causing this please help)
There is slight wear in the leather seats.
The "lighter" no longer works (fuse may be blown)
The driver window "wobbles" if the window is slightly down and you close the driver side door.
The battery had a dead cell and had to be replaced.
The driver side sun visor had to be rebolted.
There hood of the car had to be repainted due to it fading, but it's okay now.
The driver side door has a small "crack" in it.
General comments?
This car is really attractive and looks great in Black which is the color I have.
The moonroof gives it added appeal.
The car has great handling and it would not seem that a car so inexpensively priced would perform this way.
My car has been reliable in the short time I've owned it with the exception of the battery dying on me.
Everything mechanically on the car works great.
