2000 Dodge Intrepid review from North America

2.7 V6 Engine on the Intrepid is a piece of junk! In spite of regular oil changes and maintenance we have been told that we need a new engine for our 3-year old car! Don't believe this could happen? I'll tell you what our mechanic told us..."Don't believe me, do an Internet search for Intrepid Sludge or Intrepid Engine Sludge". We followed his advice and were shocked at what we found. And the fact that Dodge continues to deny there is a flaw with this engine is just disgraceful!

This car was my husbands baby and he LOVED it. We bought this car brand new just after our daughter was born. We loved the fact that it was sporty, but also roomy enough to hold a family. Everything was great until we found out last October that our three-year old car's engine was shot despite the fact that my husband had done regular oil changes and performed routine maintenance on it. That's when we found out that our engine had sludge in it and that this was a known problem with this engine. We now have a 3-year old car (which thankfully we had paid off!) that is for all intents and purposes worthless! Will NEVER buy a vehicle of any kind from Chrysler/Dodge again!!
