2000 Dodge Dakota SLT review from North America
"Very reliable, great running truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator went out at 139000.
Drivers side seat is flattening.
A/C relay went out at 144000.
A/C pump replaced at 141000.
General comments?
It is a really a great reliable, running truck. Mine is 2WD, so just put some diggers on the piece and she will run like a champ in the snow.
Never had much problems with her. She always started right up. At almost 150000 still has no rust building on her. Good body! And it can hang with the others.
One time I backed into a car, it pulled up and parked behind me, didn't see it. So I reversed it pretty fast and it hit the car on the door. Expenses to that car were high. Just knocked the dust off the Dodge. So overall, GREAT TRUCK!
