1999 Dodge Intrepid LX review from North America
"This is the worst car made its like buying a kia the first ones"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
THE FIRST THING I TOOK IT IN FOR WAS MAY CAR ROCKED BACK AND FOURTH WHEN THE CAR WAS AT A INCLINE, but THE DEALER WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT HE SAID IF IT BREAKS DOWN THEN BRING IT IN.
ANOTHER THING OF THE MANY THINGS THAT WENT WRONG WAS THE THERMOSTAT GASKETS STATED LEAKING AT 15,000 THEN 30,000 AND NOW 100,000 That's Too many TIMES IF YOU ASK ME AND MONEY.
MY MIRROR CONTROL SWItCH FAILED ABOUT 30,000.
MY BRAKES WARPED AT ABOUT 30,000.
AT 45,000 MY TRANSMISSION WOULD'T SHIFT AND MY SPEEDODMETER STOPED WORKING DO A SPEED SENSOR THAT WENT BAD ACORRDING TO THE MECHANIC THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME ON THESE CARS.
MY LIGHTS FLIKER EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE.
ALSO ANOTHER PROBLEM That's BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I GOT IT, ONCE EVERY 3-MONTHS THE ENGINE WILL NOCK HARD THEN STOP NEVER COULD GET IT TO DO IT FOR THE DEALER THOUGH.
I HAVE REPLACED THE RADIATOR FANS TWICE BECAUSE OF FAILURE ONCE AT 65,000 AND THEN AT 100,000 I DID THE SECOND ONE MY SELF THE DEALER WASN'T GOING TO TAKE ME AGAIN.
AT 75,000 MY FRONT END SQUEAKS DEALERS SAYS I NEED LOWER CONTROL ARMS.. FOR GET THAT..
At 80,000 my starter went out
Also at the same time my driver side windows went out.
I can keep going, but it would never end I will never buy another dodge and say the same thing to everybody else out there... i say law suit!!!
Sorry for the capitals I just noticed them up there to much to rewrite.
I know all the ins and outs of this car anybody want to email me feel free

General comments?
The car looks great, but that's it has cost me just as much in fixing that what I am paying for it.
