Overview & Reviews

Changes to this family sedan for the 2001 model year include optional side airbags, a shoulder belt for the central rear passenger, an internal trunk release, three new interior colors, two additional exterior colors, and an additional power outlet in the center console if you get a model with bucket seats. For those cars equipped with the Infinity sound system, you'll receive steering wheel-mounted controls and a four-disc in-dash CD player. SE is now the base Intrepid designation (previously is was the mid-level model) and it includes higher grade fabric this year. All engine choices meet LEV standards and all models receive thicker side glass and upgraded windshield moldings for a quieter ride.

• Huge interior, gigantic trunk, composed ride, attractive looks.

• Cheap interior materials, lots of engine and road noise, large size makes parking a chore.

  Lotsa car for little bucks - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By dhughes1 - May 3 - 2:00 am

  ES with 3.2 and Autostick. I bought it used with 21K. More car for the money than most. Ive put 10K on in 6 months no problems other than a vibration in the engine compartment on a cold start. Much improved over my 96 Intrepid quieter, many design improvements. My only real gripe is poor low end torque. You have to get deep into the throttle to make it really go (which it will!).

  Good reliable car - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By Zipster - March 6 - 2:00 am

  I have not had any major problems except for the transmission slipping into neutral off and on when you were driving. After I took it in to get the transmission fluid and filter changed I havent had any problems since.

  Nice car - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By Brad C - February 17 - 2:00 am

  Nice car , fun to drive . Only problem in 40,000 miles is it needed 2 transmissions replaced and a differential. All warranty work but still a pain. Had a 96 Intrepid for 5 yrs was a much better car than the 2001

  Fun to Drive - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By mjw399 - January 13 - 2:00 am

  A great car that is fun to drive. The performance is fantastic. The leather seats make you feel as if you are a part of the car. I truly feel it is nearly an ideal auto. It has room for 5, a very large trunk and super acceleration and braking(4 wheel disk ABS). It looks great to! The traction control feature is nice to have in a Chicago winter.

  Awesome Car!!! - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By buellman2003 - December 2 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car to drive to college 215 miles away. I have put almost 5000 miles on the car in the last few months. It runs perfect. It gets great gas mileage for a car this big. I expected 24, but I get a minimum of 26 in all conditions. On the interstate with the cruise at 70 I get 30 mpg, 28-29 with the AC on. I bought this car well below blue book trade in value. It was a company leased car. It has a few scratches and dings, but nothing terrible. The price made up for the problems. It drives great and is really smooth.

  Great car - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By mgriffith - October 24 - 2:00 am

  I bought that car in January 2001 with only 24k miles and I am now approaching 85k miles. The only thing I have done to the car is a new set of tires, and regular oil changes along the way. THIS IS A GREAT CAR. I have added an oil air filter to the car which has increased the gas mileage by +15%. I am getting about 30 miles/gallon. The ride is nice, the road noise is fine (as far as Im concerned) I will be looking to get another one when I replace this one.

  Good Car - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By rjack - October 12 - 2:00 am

  My R/T drives very well when I dont have any of these problem. The problem that I had is the entire exhaust was replaced due to a buzz noise in one of the muffler. My passenger side door has been squeaking from the start, the booster (power brake was replaced), my car is alway pulling to the right & all of my windows make noise when rolling the windows upward of down. If the dealer can fix these problems it would be a perfect car.

  Roomy, good looks and pep - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By Skyflyin - August 18 - 2:00 am

  I have had this car about 9 months now and enjoy it very much. It is very roomy with a extremely large trunk, drives well and gets good gas milage (I have averaged 26 mpg). The car tends to overstear a bit and the road noise is quite loud on rougher roads, but the excellent handling and peppy engine make this a fun car to drive. I agree that the low front end makes it harder to judge distance while parking, but I have not had a problem getting in and out of the car (Im 61") as some others have said. Overall this is a good car and the price is reasonable. I would not hesitate to get another one.

  My love Intrepid - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By ctlee/Choon-Taek Lee - December 20 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car nine month ago when I came to USA. At a first look, I was fascinated by its beautiful style. On the test drive, this car showed me smooth and powerful ride. Still I keep this feeling. During the highway drive, it shows tis real value. Smooth, good performance in uphill satisfied me. No repair cost at all except regular maintenance fee.

  2001 Intrepid R/T Motorsports - 2001 Dodge Intrepid
  By rg - December 19 - 2:00 am

  The R/T is the top of the intrepid line & it performs like it. The Motorsports edition is very rare & was only made in 2001 to celebrate the return of Dodge to NASCAR. There were only 383 of these cars made. I love the looks of this car & its extremely roomy.
