1995 Dodge Stealth Base from North America - Comments

"Looks great, but slow and problems galore"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Radio needed replacement.

Power windows on passenger side shorted out.

Distrubitor needed replacement.

Header replaced.

Manifold had to be cleaned out.

Front left headlight became dimmer than the right side.

Radio shorted out again.

Engine light stays on even though the car has no problems that I know of.

General comments?

I got this nice ride as a first car, but the looks aren't worth the trouble. as you can see above, this car has a lot of electrical problems, and kids at my high school thinks the car sux. I am trying to get a prelude or something else. don't get this car if you're not planning to work on it constantly and waste money. good turning, but aceleration is awful.

Good lord kid! The stealth rocks, and you want to replace it with a prelude??!??!?! The problems you mentioned are mostly previous owner faults. I have a '91 D.O.H.C. nothing too special about it (turbo-wise) and it still deserves a lot more credit than you give it. So next time you post a review on any car do research first, to see if your car's problems have happened to others of that same model.

I have a used 1994 base, best car I have ever owned. I agree, especially buying used cars, previous ownership and care have a LOT to do with it. Iwould not trade it for the world. I Have not found another car yet-including new ones that compare with looks and performance. The only drawback I find is headroom-being a little tall, but I knew that when I bought it, not that much of a big deal. After all these years, it still gets the attention and compliments more than any other car I have owned-I have owned quite a few high performance vehicles-this one is a keeper!

Sup man. The Stealth is one of the fastest 6 cyl accel cars ever made! you check engine light is on.. Hmm.. I think mabye your timing is off, your fuel filter or air filter is clogged or you might even have bad plugs. There is no reason your stealth should accel slow.. hell my Stealth is a 92 ES Dohc and I run low 12's. Of course.. it's a 6 banger not a 4 banger. PLEASE have your car looked at by a profesional before you rag on it. Stealths are beautiful in every way except in cost! here is my Email ReefaMasta@hotmail.com write me man, ill try to help you get your stealth back in the game!

I have owned two Stealths so far. A '91 And '94 and looking to buy a '95 R/T. Stealths are a great car to own. I have never had any problems with Stealths. I love them!!
