After owning this car for only 9 monthes, it has been a nightmare. After I bought the car I started to hear all kinds of comments from previous Intrepid owners as to how unsafe and what a lemon these cars were. This car was constantly failing. On the road, on the interstate, on my way home late at night. All the problems started just one month after I purchased the car. It was on going, never stoppped. Unfortunantly there had to be an end to the trouble and amount of money that was dumped into this peice of junk car. The only response I have gotten from Chrysler was, sorry. I allowed Chrysler to repo it only because I had my back against the wall. I only hope to grab somebodys attention so that futher investigation will follow into these cars. Interpids are poorly designed cars and are not safe to be out on the road!
