Bought car in 2001, with 69,000 miles. 2 days after purchase, gauges stopped working, car ran fine, no noise, etc. Intermittent problem. Dealer could not duplicate. Happened while driving past dealer, stopped and they checked for codes, none found. Happened again, dealer had code for airbag module this time, replaced part. Problem is still intermittent. 2003, driving at 75 MPH on highway, car stalled, no restart. Towed to dealer, they replaced timing belt and water pump. Also had brake rotors and pads replaced at 72,000. They were done at 55,000 also. Replaced tie rod ends 2004 at 97,000. They had been replaced a week before purchase at 68,500. Passenger airbag cover warped, I fear it may fail in accident.

What 1994 Dodge Intrepid owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I was in parking garage at jfk airport. When I started car and put it into gear, the car shot forward and crashed into concrete barrier and pillar. The airbags never deployed and the braking did not slow it down. The car was totalled and the travelers insurance has offered $2275 less the $500 deductible.
Abs light is on constantly. Vehicle has not been examined by dealer.*ak
Consumer stted while the rotors were replaced, the mechanic noticed the tie rods needed to be replaced as well.*ak
While driving 15 MPH, consumer applied the brakes and experienced complete brake failure, mechanic replaced the pads, and front and rear rotors. Mileage at the time was 64000.*ak. Mechanic stated the rotors were worn.
This auto has had major issue ex;ABS system fails similar to the 1990-1993 minivans that were reca lled transmission failure at 25000 miles is ridiculous tie rods prematrurely wearing out ect..
While reversing could step on brake pedal and brakes will make noises, and will not operate. Dealer was contacted about it. Please provide more information.
Transmission froze at 55 MPH 1998 replaced still problems???, electronic control module went while in drive at 35mph, front tie rods replaced 2 times within a year, airconditioner went within 4 years, cooling system replaced within 4 years from manufactured date, ABS module failed during driving on highway and again in city limits after dealer stressed that nothing was wrong with anti lock brakes I have had this car in the shop for major not minor repairs since the manufactured date at least 15 times and can prove each time. I am appauled that america can manufactur such a vehicle with all the major issues at hand, transmission, suspension,electrical,braking systems,fuel,airbags,structural, I wish there was someone who could address these issues with the manufacturer and get us all restitution. If it means legally or consumer agencies I am interested. I drive with 2 children and during the transmission, electrical and the ABS failures they were in the car. I would like some type of a reply from them if at all possible. Thank you for the website and the opportunity to be heard.
Upon depressing the brake pedal to make a normal stop there is heavy pulsating due to the front brake rotors which wear excessively. Also, six set of rotors has been replaced. Please provide any further details.
When consumer applied brakes there was air inside of the pedal. Pedal went all the way down to the floor, and vehicle vibrated.
