Dodge Intrepid Se
| | Model of the car: | Dodge Intrepid Se | | | General comments: | Please tell everyone who you know ,that want to purchase a dodge intrepid DONT DO IT for gods sake.This thing is a piece of crap.I used to own a 1998 intrepid se and did 220457 miles on it and no probs, and then it died of natural causes, ha ha.But the problem is not with that one.After that intrepid "something possessed me" get another on damn that was a big mistake.So i went out searching and found a 2001 intrepid se with 60000 on the dial.So what you say-well the car was in immaculate shape,at about 68000 and about 3 months i was happily driving down the road and i almost lost control on a turn.Well the rack and pinion was gone.I installed a new one myself at $500,compared to a repair shop bill $850.After that i started experiencing suspention probs.So i said i might as well replace everything,so i did .I got a lowering kit from INTRAX,new shocks and struts from KYB GR2, and a camber kit and slapped it all on myself.Nice you say-well so everything was done and im driving at 95 mph on the highway and feel the steering wheel shake like it was mad.It turned out it was the lower ball joint and outer tie rod end at 70000 miles that is unheard of man.Then the break rotors got warped ,so i got new ones from the dealer another$180.Then after about 73000 they got warped again .Now at about 75000 im experiencing rough idling,i still havent figured it out but it tends to drop slightly as if the engine wants to stall. All i know is that i will never get another intrepid again and i will let ayone wanting to know that it will be a big mistake.Friends dont let friends drive dodge!. And i mean it. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | look above. | | | Previous car: | 1998 oldsmobile intrigue (with a little supercharger he he he) |
