I purchased my 1999 Dodge Intrepid w/28,840 miles. From there it had unreasonably been a lemon and into the "five star" Chrysler dealer at least 8 times. The vehicle had persistant steering issues and abnormalities, wandering, play, abnormal change in sensitivity while driving, noise, tire wear. Dealer could never "duplicate the problems'. the engine blew up at 33,000 miles, had to have replaced. Transmission failed shortly after, had to be rebuilt. Input/output speed sensors failed twice. ABS allowed brakes to lock up twice. Tcm and PCM needed updating due to flawed previous revisions. Power window failed, front bumper, grill paint wearing. Obviously this vehicle was a lemon. The vehicle was finally wrecked after sudden poor steering control after trying to get the dealer to do something many times. DaimlerChrysler denies any manufacturing responsibility. I do not see how they can get away with this. There are many others experiencing similar premature problems that should not be occuring as such.
