1995 Dodge Avenger ES review from North America
"Nice car, but a little rough around the edges"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One fog light has burned out.
A bit of a lull when the gas-pedal is depressed, both when first accelerating and while rolling.
Driver-side window doesn't seal properly. It results in myself or my car getting a little wet during a car wash.
Driver-side door doesn't open very easily when the exterior latch is pulled - you sometimes have to pull a couple times.
General comments?
Overall, it's a great car.
Many of the things that have went wrong with the car could have because of the general wear-and-tear of the car through the past few years.
Turning radius is awful. Period.
It's sleek design gives it a nice sporty look, but it's looks are a little deceiving... making this car seem quite a bit under-powered. Don't get me wrong, the acceleration and top speed of the Avenger is very nice for a low-end sports car.
