2002 Dodge Intrepid ES review from North America
"Daimler/Chrysler were idiots to stop producing this car - it is the best Mopar I've ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to have the rear ball joints replaced (not unusual at 103,000.
This is the most reliable, high performance Mopar product I've ever owned.
General comments?
Outstanding MPG, great ride, have gone cross-country without a problem. Just standard maintenance - and I adhere to standard manufacturer recommended maintenance. It is extremely stable on snow/ice (I live in Colorado) and gives me great gas mileage with a smooth ride, tons of interior room and trunk space.
The 3.5 L engine is a dream.
