10/10 Likely to recommend this car ? (1-10):10 "I got a 1995 Dodge Intrepid for free because my friend didnt know what was wrong with it or how to fix it and wanted something newer. It had 140,000 mi . at the time and I had to replace the timing belt . (They should be replaced every 60,000 mi . or so). I have to say this drivetrain is extremely bullet proof . The engine is easy to work on (it mounted north, south orientation ) like the old V8 engines (mechanics love this). The 3.5 engine has plenty of low end torque (a good thing)and is extremely reliable. The only downside is the interior is not very durable which is no suprise with Chrysler products . They are known for thier engines and performance not for their interiors. There are many of these still on the road and I see them all the time . Dont let the high mileage fool you these cars will outlast many,many other cars . Ive worked on this engine top to bottom and the engineering of this powertrain was way ahead of it,s time . The 3.5L engine was used all the way to the 2012 in Dodge and Chrysler vehicles, thats almost unheard of in the automotive industry . Many improvements were made through those years to increase gas mileage and performance but the reliabilty of this work horse never changed . My recommendation is if you find yourself looking for a reliable vehicle to purchase, buy a Dodge or Chrysler vehicle with the 3.5L engine. You will have that car for many, many years to come." 12 people out of 13 found this review helpful Was this review helpful to you? yes | no | report abuse Share this review
