1994 Dodge Spirit review from North America
"Big engine gives lot of useful power"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Intermittent stalling problem, especially with the air conditioning compressor turned on. Problem is difficult to reproduce (no mechanic has yet been able to).
Front seat loses its padding over time with moderate use.
Belts tend to be noisy, even with replacements.
General comments?
Overall I love this car. The 3.0L V6 is good overkill for this weight car. I have no problem merging on to highways with short entrance ramps. The acceleration feels like the day I got it.
Except the saggy front seat, the car is very comfortable to drive or be a passenger in. The cabin is very roomy.
