"Disatisfied - won't buy another Dodge product"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Replaced steering column and both inner tie rod links. Brake rotors are warped already. Won't start at times - has to be restarted up to 5 times before it can be driven.

General comments?

Poor gas mileage - 13 miles per gallon.

Dealer service has been mediocre compared with the excellent service of our other vehicle - Honda Accord.

I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS- POOR GAS MILEAGE-FRONT END PARTS BEING REPLACED- CLICKING SOUND IN MOTOR WHICH MECHANICS CAN'T FIND. NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE.

I wouldn't complain about the gas mileage. What do you expect for a V8 4x4 Automatic? You have to remember, the 318 engine was designed in 1960s back when gas was cheap and there wasn't any emissions. I'm happy with the mileage I get (12.5mpg city) and just try towing a 6000 lb. boat with a V6 Toyota or Ford...
