2001 Dodge Intrepid SE review from North America
"A Major DUD!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car engine locked up at 66K miles. Cost over $4000 to replace.
Chrysler sucks and honestly don't give a crap that they charged me $15K for a car that they refuse to stand behind engineering defects.
I will never buy a Chrysler product because of their business ethics.
Now, I have a problem with the condenser in the air conditioner and was quoted over $1000 to repair this.
The interior trimming pealed and broke off.
General comments?
It's a shame that these cars turned out to be duds. They are pretty cars. However, visit any junk yard and you'll see plenty of "pretty" Intrepid's with blown engines.
Very disappointing! Bad, bad, deal. Do yourself a favor and find another car. Plus, they do not hold value. And, Dodge is no longer manufacturing this model...hmmm, I wonder why?
