"Save your money, do not purchase this car!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

My transmission sensors went out at 60,000 miles. It cost 500.00 to replace.

Another problem with the transmission at 80,000 miles. Continuously cuts out when reversing and accelerating.

Car burns oil excessively. Oil must be changed at 3000 miles, and normally oil must be added every 1000 miles.

Driver side window is no longer aligned, mechanic says a piece that keeps it on track broke off. This happened at 60,000 miles.

Both back seat windows motors went out at 85,000 miles.

The blower for the air conditioner and heater went out. Only works on high. This occurred around 85,000 miles.

I have had to replace the braking system in both front and back at around 60,000 miles.

The newest problem of this car is blue smoke coming from the exhaust pipe. The smoke gets worse every day. This problem occurred at 90,000 miles.

General comments?

Although this car is nice looking and very spacious the cost of maintaining it is not worth it. I am very disappointed with the 99 intrepid model and will not be purchasing a Dodge ever again.

It seems that every time I get my car back from the shop, something else breaks the following week.
