Faults:

I have a BIG problems with my engine- exactly the same ones that all the other people have who owns 2000 intrepid. Timing chain needs to be changed and I have oil leaks. and engine has bad sound if rpm goes over 2200 rpm.

General Comments:

This car is really comfortable and nice looking and it has enough power for 2.7 engine, but engine is not reliable and after 80 000 this car needs to get timing chain changed and a lots of other parts.

I think that Dodge should fix all these problems (for free of charge/ or give a discount on certain parts) that majority of people have with this car, because as we can see everybody have exactly same problems with this car after 70000/80000 miles and that shows us that it's not our fault, but somebody's else and why we have to pay for it???

Faults:

Power window failures, complete failure of driver's window.

Replaced entire wire bundle to rear of car - wires were cut open.

Power door locks failing, and make screeching sound.

Many lights failed - dashboard, glove comp, trunk.

Weather seals on all doors have shrunk, no longer fit.

Cig Lighter power outlet failure - dead.

Transmission Failure - complete, car is unusable.

There were many other minor problems we can't remember due to high number.

General Comments:

The Intrepid lured us in with cool styling, many features, luxury, power, comfort. It then began to have problem after problem after problem. Once the warranty expired, failures increased. Now the automatic transmission just completely failed. The car is 5 years old, and is SHOT. Worthless. A HUGE disappointment and waste of money.

Faults:

I replaced the starter, and the windshield wipers, and the front tires which is general maintenance. I get the oil changed every 3000 miles, and I love the car, it has great power, and is very nice inside and out and handles very well in all weather conditions.

General Comments:

This is an awesome automobile. I will never sell it, as the Intrepid has been very good to me.

Faults:

Rubber door seals shrunk allowing wind noise into car. Dealer "repaired" under warranty by cuting and stretching seals.

60,000 complete rack and pinion sterring failure. Dealer/Dodge refused to pay for any. They even charged me for a front end alignment! $960.00. total bill.

Driver side window falls off track at 61,000 miles and won't go up straight.

Interior dash lights flicker bright/dim while driving on occasion.

Keyless entry horn signal mysteriously stopped beeping when door locks.

Lower tie rod assy replaced at 61,000 miles.

General Comments:

This car looks great. It handles like a sports car and has a ton of room, especially in the trunk. The 3.2 L engine is smooth and reliable.

After all that is said, the car has started to fall apart after 60,000 miles. There are over 650 complaints for the 2000 model alone on a famous auto complaint site.

When Chrysler was informed of the excessive number of total steering failures for this car (and it's sisters Concord and 300M), it refused to admit any design problems even though there are. From this one safety flaw alone, I wouldn't buy a car like this again. The steering went out with hardly any warning and could have killed someone.
