1997 Dodge Intrepid Sport review from North America
"Complete piece of garbage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Body Control Module.
Water Pump.
Multi-Switch (3 times)
Headlamp switch (twice)
Fuel rail.
Intake manifold.
Headlamp plastic broke and headlights fell out.
Hood struts.
Wipers quit intermittently.
Dash instruments quit intermittently.
Goodyear Eagle tires were terrible.
General comments?
Lots of room.
Lots of power.
Sporty and attractive.
Never has tracked well at freeway speeds, likes to wander, but the Pirelli 6000 tires helped.
Why is the gear selector not lit!?
