1997 Dodge Intrepid review from North America
"Good running car for a young college student"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After an Oil Change the check engine light comes on.
Steering wheel column noise.
Window problems.
Rubber seals around door frame on passenger side coming off.
Back Seats are very uncomfortable.
General comments?
It's a big car.
Big trunk space.
Not too bad on gas. (2.55 a gallon here in Minnesota)
It Gets up and go pretty fast.
Drove it from Washington State to Minnesota just fine.
Drove it from Minnesota to South Carolina and back just fine.
Paint on vehicle still looks good.
