What 2000 Dodge Intrepid owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Dash board is cracking near airbag and lights flicker on and off we have to hit the dashboard for it to stop.
Engine is bad. Loud knocking. Originally thought it was main seal that went out but upon further investigation and several mechanics, the engine is gone. Second thought was the oil pump went bad, no luck there either. No known reason for engine to go out and no warning signs. No "check engine" lights or anything else. Car has less than 52,500 miles. Up to this I never had any problems with the vehicle, other than the weather stripping around all four doors keep coming off, even after it was replaced at dealership.
2000 dodge intrepid. Weather stripping/molding on the doors has shrunk and separated from the mounting area. This is the second time this has occurred. Had the weatherstrip replaced under warranty at 31154 miles. The dealer has acknowledge that the weatherstrip has again shrunk over time. The cost to replace is $136.00 each door, parts and labor.
While driving on the freeway at approximately 70 MPH, the engine seized without warning. Owner had the vehicle towed to a mechanic and was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. *jb updated 1/19/2006 - the oil light illuminated on the dash then the engine seized. The vehicle was sent to the salvage yard. The weather strips at the doors were leaking.
Door molding is separating from its frame, causing several gapes. The cause of the frame shrinking is yet to be determined.
Defective weatherstripping on all 4 doors - dealer states that it is obviously a defect - but cannot fix it because it is not under the initial 3 year warranty - chrysler offers me a discounted price - I do not want to pay anything to chrysler because there are 4 defective items on my $30,000 vehicle that I am still working hard to pay off. I brought it to them in august because I had time of from work, and they said if I would have brought it in 2 months ago it would have been covered. Load of crap that I did not meet the dead line on defective items in my car to be fixed for free. Chrysler gives a '!@#$% about their customers and I will spread the word.
Water leaked into the rear driver side door seal of the vehicle.
The back doors of the vehicle are inoperable. The doors have locked and cannot be opened manuelly or with key entry system. Took to the dealer dealer will not remedy the problem. Please provide any further information. Mr
Windshield keeps breaking, air system is releasing carbon monoxide into the cabin of the vehicle. Rubber trims for all four doors shrunk. Contacted herb chambers (dealer), I got the usual run around. Contacted the manufacturer via e-mail, they advised me to go back to herb chambers and work out warranty related issues. Mr
