1998 Dodge Intrepid review from North America
"An economical bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A computer chip for the transmission at 107,000 miles.
General comments?
This car has been fantastic.
It was manufactured in Canada, and has been the best car I have ever owned.
I had brake rotors replaced at 99,00 miles.
I took it in to be aligned at 105,00 miles and the mechanic told me it didn't need it.
It handles very well in snow, and has been economical to run.
The design of the back of this vehicle is it's only manufacturing flaw. It is very hard to see anything in back of the vehicle when backing up.
This car's sporty look and economical maintenance has made it well worth the investment.
I look forward to purchasing another one when this car dies.
