Intrepid 8-cyl

Normal driving on interstate. Engine light came on. Before I could get onto next exit (1/4 mile), engine started knocking. Took exit and pulled directly into closed car dealership parking lot. Engine died. Oil leaking from engine. Called mechanic. Towed car to his shop. Had car for 6 months trying to find replacement engine. Put in rebuilt engine. After 5 months, engine began knocking as before. Stopped immediately and had towed to my house where it now sits. 1st engine and parts not available.

Intrepid

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
I was a victim of an accident, another vehicle had struck me in the rear of my vehicle. Upon inpact the drivers side seat that I was sitting in had totally colapsed backward. Injuries where sustained to neck and back which was confirmed by medical expertise. I truly believe that the injuries where from the seat breaking, giving no support thus allowing my body to jolt backward and bounce around.this is a serious saftey hazard that needs to be addressed before lives are lost.
