I have a 1998 Dodge Intrepid that when the blower is on for the heater it goes off and on, causing the car to overheat, and when the A/C is on it does the same. Also the trunk accumulates a lot of moisture.

Me car was purchased used 1/16/03, since purchase, have had several serious problems; idler pulley warped, broke power steering belt while on road cooling fan motor went out on passenger side of car -the engine in my 1998 Dodge Intrepid blew -up when I was on the expressway in a construction zone (one lane of traffic). I was told by several local auto mechanics and Dodge dealerships that these engines are notorious for this problem. The power steering and braking quit when engine quit. Car diagnosed by local mechanic " needs engine replaced".
