1995 Dodge Intrepid Base review from North America
"A little bit of tinkering and a lot of power"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hmm, the car's A/C doesn't work went to get it fixed and they quoted 500 slaps-in-the-face, so now I role the windows down. It rattles a little, and the electrical system is held together by spit and rubber bands (evidence of complete electrical melt down) but all in all it's a great can and has served me well.
General comments?
I like this car cost almost nothing to buy, and minimal repairs. Little things like to go like knobs breaking off and trim popping off, all cosmetic. But the performance is great, heard horror stories about the trannys I believe mine has been replaced and a heavy duty cooler installed (it is bigger then the radiator). despite my biching it is a great car and repairs have been relatively cheap most of it I have done my self. I guess this one has to be owned by someone that doesn't mind tinkering with stupid things.
