The plan was good. - 1994 Dodge Intrepid
By sprog - February 11 - 12:25 amStarted having quite a few problems with it after about 100k miles - A/C would only work at certain times (never could figure it out), as well as quite a few other things. Poor paint job - it was actually tan, but would show up sort of purple at night. Kind of neat, but it started flaking off. Had cooling problems with it as well.

Got what I paid for - 1994 Dodge Intrepid
By ibakan - July 8 - 4:27 amBought this in July, 08 with 80K miles because it was seemed to be a good value. The climate control unit had some glitches I soon discovered and soon stopped working. Had a couple mechanics do some diagnosis and weve not come up with answers except its not the control head, min. $200 for a good diagnosis and at least another $150 to fix. I was doing a lot of mountain driving at the time, so when my water pump failed it quickly overheated and developed a head gasket leak, est. repair cost is $500 - $1500. Starter is failing now too, so its time for my clean, good looking 95K mile Intrepid to be turned in because the cost to repair it all is higher than the value of the car.

The new Dodge, same old same old - 1994 Dodge Intrepid
By James - October 8 - 12:16 amI bought this car from an individual. I paid just $500. I found the acceleration with the 3.3 to be more than ample. The drivetrain is good for the engine, and shifted smooth. Even though the car has never left me stranded, I have poured quite the sum of money into it. When I bought it, it needed brakes. Thats maintanence. After driving it for a month, the inner and outer tie rod ends on the drivers side are going bad. Map, and O2 sensors went bad. The rear transmission mount is broke. The downshift linkage in the transmission is sticking. Dodge did a horrible job on fit and finish. Same old Same old.

BIGGEST mistake of my life! - 1994 Dodge Intrepid
By MDS2004tg - October 10 - 2:00 amA truely awfule car. Bought the car at 72,000 miles. In 30,000 miles I had to have the following replaced or rebuilt: Engine, transmition-twice, starter- three times, cam berrings, inner tie rods-twice, AC-three times. Paint is peeling and the gas mileage is terrible. Instead of having a car free of worry, I drove around with a sick fear of what was going to happen next. I will never, never, never buy a Dodge again. Kelly Blue Book value of my 94 Dodge Intrepid? $223. Horrible

Dont Buy it - 1994 Dodge Intrepid
By KEH - January 2 - 2:00 amLove(d) driving this car but it is putting me in debt with the expensive repairs. Air conditioning went at around 75k, transmission went at 78k and cost me $2,000 to repair, paints chipping, logos falling off, water pump went, suspension is shot, alternator went, road noise is terrible, and the heating/air makes an irritating buzzing noise everytime I start the car. I am finally going to put it to rest since my transmission has again died. Its a beautiful car and rides nice(when it rides), but unreliable at best.

Looks arent everything - 1994 Dodge Intrepid
By nothappy - August 28 - 2:00 amI love my intrepid, which I have had since new. It is problematic, though, since it is not reliable, or well built. It is on its 4th stereo, third tranny, third set of front suspension, has expensive front headlights that break in their mounts every year, a/c quit, totally, and needs $1300 repair, leather seats worn through, abs and traction control sensor shot, gas gauge erratic, ignition switch replaced, starter motor rebuilt, aluminum wheels corrode, body rattles, windshield wipers dont wipe the glass, seals around doors dont seal anything. This car looks great, but costs a fortune to own. Give me a Toyota Corolla any day!
