  • Her name is Ruby - 1999 Dodge Avenger

    Ive had this car for 5 years now and it has been great. Ive only had two major repairs. I had to replace the ball joints and the timing belt. other than that, normal maintenance is all that is required and the car runs beautifully! I take a road trip twice a year and the car always holds up nicely, better actually because it just wants to be driven! In California, we dont have to worry too much about the cold so this is not an issue. to this day it only has 100,000 miles on it and I will continue to drive it until it will no longer drive. Im sure I have at least another 5 years with it!

    the car is a decent car but has way too many problems the car does have some power to it which i like but the cars brake burn out way too quick the transmission does not shift good at all after a couple of days the car clunks on every single bump (i know what that problem is) too much ride noise cant see that good out the back window i mean come on not everyone is that tall i do like the power everything sunroof but that dont matter if after every stop sign your car dont move and also after reading all the dangers from other websites i would not recommend it at all

  • Terrible Reliable Car - 1999 Dodge Avenger

    I have put $1690.00 in my 1999 Avenger, the ball joints has been horrible, the axle and control arms has went out, and I would not buy another one. The body is great and very sporty but the parts are out of this world in cost! Good Luck to anyone that owns one.

  • Conservative/Sporty - 1999 Dodge Avenger
    By -

    This is my second Avenger. First was a 96 and now the 99. Its fun to drive, lots of people comment on my car! Its a very sporty black with grey leather and a sunroof. I have nothing but good things to say about this car except two things. The turning around in this car is terrible! It takes you forever to make a simple U turn. Second is the keyless entry. Only the dome light flashes and not the exterior lights? Cant I get a little beep or something! Other than that, its a blast to drive and would buy another in a heart beat!

    I got this car in the summer of 05 and its a 99. It came with the best sound system Ive heard in a long time. I havent had to do too much but replace the battery. Its got power but not enough for the body style. On top of that its fun to drive and with my 18 in rims on it I get lots of looks. If you like the body style I suggest you buy this car. Its reliable, sporty looking, good gas mileage, and most of all fun to drive

    I have put a lot of miles on this car and it has held up wonderfully. Over 180,000 miles so far and no mechanical difficulties. Oil change and tires is it. Good Luck or Good car, probably both.

    When I first looked at it I thought it was too sporty. Great V6 growl, but no real power. Claimed 170hp at about 4800rpm when the timing changes. It set me back in my seat. It handles like a sports car, and has room for 4. Love the huge trunk. The only problems, twice the battery light has come on. When the light was on and I flipped from bright to dim the radio lost power as if the ignition was turned. I also had a problem starting the car. Like it was still in drive and wouldnt even turn over. Thought it was the starter disabling of the security system.

  • Better than most Dodges - 1999 Dodge Avenger
    By -

    This is my second Avenger, first was a 1995. This one has been more dependable than the first. Have had no major problems until the last month or so. The Antilock Brake lite keeps coming on, get it checked next week. Dealership had to clean black goo (body coating) off the door sills. Overall I really like the car. Got rid of the LOUD, ROUGH RIDING Goodyears and put Dunlops on, What a great improvement that was!
