"I will never buy another dodge/chrysler again"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Was told head gasket to go any time now.

Just replaced tie rod ends.

Needs rear brakes replaced.

Blower resistor goes every 6 months or so. cheap repair, but irritating after a while.

Stereo goes in and out occasionally depending if I am braking/accelerating? still no idea what's causing that one.

The battery is somewhere in the wheel well, have to take off tire to even change the battery!!!

General comments?

It does have some zip.

It is extremely roomy compared to some other sedans.

I had the same problem with the stereo going in an out on me.

As it turned out, the fuses for the radio (which is located in a box under the hood) had corroded prongs and was losing connection. The fuse never blew, but the corroded prongs caused the radio to fade in and out. I changed the fuse and haven't had a problem since.
