1998 Dodge Intrepid ES review from North America
"Poor Quality for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Speed Sensor went out.
Problems with motors/tracks of all 4 windows.
New rack and pinion.
Shifter doesn't move easily.
Numerous problems with braking system.
Air conditioner display screen fades in and out.
Air conditioner comes on by itself and will not respond.
Paint around front windshield peeling off.
Dodge emblem fell off front of car.
Headlights have yellowed.
Have had to change battery twice.
General comments?
This car has serious issues with the braking system, I have had it in the shop about every 3-4 months for some kind of brake problem.
The windows stick or will not roll down, both driver and passenger windows come off the track and fall down inside the door.
I was on my way to a funeral when the speed sensor went out about an hour from home and I had to wait on the side of road for a tow truck. Car would not come out of 2nd gear.
Currently experiencing electrical problems. Car won't start, then it does. Display panels fade in and out. Air conditioner comes on unexpectedly and fan gets stuck in one position.
The overhead directional/temp display panel isn't working properly.
