Own 1999 Dodge Intrepid with 60,000 miles. The oil light continued to illuminate. However, kept oil changed regularly. Wife was driving home, and the vehicle locked up in the middle of the road. Was able to restart and make it to the side of the road and was towed. Took vehicle to service dealer, and they diagnosed as the crank shaft bearings were worn out, and were not receiving oil. This happened all the time with these motors. Builds up sludge within the motor. After inspection, recommended a new motor. The value of car is $4,000 and the motor costs $5,000. After the new motor was ordered changed mind, was charged $800 for restocking fee and car is still not repaired.

Driving home one night and the my 1999 Dodge itrepid 2.7L V6 just stalled on me. It was taken to a local mechanic who at first baffled what was worn. After doing some reasearch on the engine he realized what a problem these engines are and how Chrysler cares nothing about fixing them. Just some minor checking was done and the mechanic found there was no compression in the number5 cylinder and the air was going straight through to the exhaust. Nothing has been done since then and I still deciding what to do with my vehicle.
