2001 Dodge Intrepid SE review from North America
"Very reliable!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Thermostat - That's it.
General comments?
The Intrepid has been a very good car for me. I have had it for 3+ years and have only had it in the shop once to replace the thermostat. I think the Intrepid gets such a bad name because of the rentals that were abused and neglected ended up having their engines go bad. I have always used synthetic oil as a precaution, but I believe this engine will last at least another 100,000 miles.
I have owned everything from Mazda to Nissan and this has been the most reliable car of them all!
