Heat hasn't worked in years! Tried everything! What else can I do?

My 2000 dodge intrepid has been a nightmare. I've had little problems along the way, but now that I'm over 100,000, I'm really having to dish the money out. Every time I turn around, something is wrong. It's a nightmare each day. Do not buy a 2000 Dodge Intrepid unless you like giving money away.

Not having heat in the summer is nothing to complain about, but when it's in the winter and cold, it's a major problem. After allowing my car to idle for 20 minutes before driving my children to school I was shocked when I turned on the heat and was greeted with cold air. I didn't think much of it though, because as long as I was driving, warm air blew, but when I stopped at an intersection, traffic light, or put my foot on the brake for any reason, COLD air blew from the heater. The problem seemed to have corrected itself, but it is warmer now and I haven't used the heater in a while. I feel as though I am driving a ghost car. I have more complaints, the engine, the trunk release, the windshield wipers, the driver's side back door lock, the passenger side automatic window, the leak around my trunk, the headlights, the oil light, the check engine light, the brakes, tire rods, etc. The only thing I don't have a complaint about is the car's body.

Just can't figure it out, it's not the antifreeze, the radiator or the heater core. We are out of ideas on what to do with this thing! I live in ND, it's freezing, so if anyone has an idea....
