2002 Dodge Intrepid ES review from North America
"It is a riding defect on wheels, not worth the money spent"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My intake manifold gasket blew at 80,000.
My water pump went out at 112000 miles, causing the oil to sludge and the engine to lock up.
My inside overhead lights and dash lights flicker on and off at times for no apparent reason.
My alignment stays off after being fixed.
My oil light comes on after long trips for no reason. I replaced the oil sending unit and it still did the same. My mechanic said it might be my oil pump. It's been doing it since 15000 miles new.
My check engine light stays on for no reason.
General comments?
I love the look and how it rides new.
