2001 Dodge Intrepid LH review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had a computer glitch at 23,000 miles, which was replaced under manufacturers warranty on the first trip to the dealer.
General comments?
The Intrepid is VERY roomy. It easily accommodates my 6'3", 280 pound frame. The tilt steering and powered driver's seat allows everybody to feel comfortable behind the wheel.
While the trunk is huge the optional fold-down back seat also allows easy transport of longer items such as pipes, boards, and skis.
All Intrepids handle very well, better than most cars in the next class/size smaller. The R/T has the same suspension as a 300M w/Performance Handling Package - superb handling for it's size.
The R/T has plenty of power for passing and maintaining freeway speeds. It's also ideal for short and/or uphill ramps, even with five adults and the A/C running.
Trucks and high winds have little effect on the Intrepid because of it's aerodynamics. Of course, this also helps with gas mileage.
