Dt: the contact stated while driving the front passenger tire fell off the vehicle. Had the inner and outer tie rods replaced twice. Did one replacement before the tire fell off. The second replacement was done after the tire came off. The replacements did not remedy the problem. While driving it felt as though the wheels were falling off. When hitting a bump while driving there was a snapping noise from underneath the vehicle. Another concern was the electrical system. Only one headlight will work on bright and only one will work on dim. The contact replaced both bulbs in the headlights, but this did not remedy the problem. He checked the fuses, and there were no problems with them. Also, the headlight switch fell off without being hit or knocked off.

Headlamps made of soft plastic or badly made become scratched and foggy and light is reduced over time. Replacement of both lights for parts is $144.

Since owning the 1995 dodge intrepid we purchased brand new, these are the problems experienced since owning and the problems being experienced now. We have had steering problems which required the power steering pump to be replaced, also some arm had to be replaced due to the right front wheel wobbling. Our electric locks have engaged as if holding the switch for a couple of seconds on the passenger side and the driver side. Never was fixed due to dealer not duplicating. Our AC/heat electronic controls stuck and would not respond to any commands and constantly was blowing hot air, pulling fuse was only remedy. Electronic gauges will not always show correct information ie. Fuel level, temp, fuel used, compass, ..etc, turning car on/off will usually correct it. Our fuel rails has been replaced under warranty recall, but I still will smell fuel inside. Our passenger side air bag is warped. Our headlights will not come on at times and even go out while driving. Flashing high/low beam steering column switch will usually make them come on. Our most recent problem and the state our vehicle is in right now is smoke is coming from the steering column and it is very hot and I believe a fire is trying to start. The car is parked at the location this started at and is not being driven.

After parking the vehicle consumer touched the on/off switch to turn the lights off and switch was extremely hot. The driving lights had to be removed to get them to work.

The headlights in the car are one component, which there is no way of cleaning the inside of the lenses. Over time they get a cloudy effect which dulls the brightness of the headlights. The car I have just purchase has this problem with the headlights, which is a 1995 intrepid. If these headlights are supposed to be airtight which no moisture is to get in then I think it is the maker of this product or of the car manufactures to replace these headlights.the cost of these lights is a outrages price and should not have to be paid by the consumer. You will probably say it is because of the year of the car and that parts wear out . The price of some parts in order to maintain a car is retarded , but that comes with owning a vehicle. I do not think that this part should fall under the same category . With the way the headlights are I think it is a safety problem, it inpairs your vision because of the dullness of the lights. I just sold a 1989 cultlass ciera which had brighter headlights then this car.
