THE ENGINE IS FAILING, SMOKING. UPON INVESTIGATION, IT HAS BEEN FOUND THAT THIS IS COMMON IN 2.7 LITER VEHCILES OF THIS MODEL. IN OTHER WORDS, THIS ENGINE IS A LEMON. I HAVE ALSO NOTED THAT THE AIRCONDITIONING HAS FAILED AND I WILL ALSO HAVE TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED. THERE IS ALSO A PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION THAT I HAVEN'T FIGURE OUT YET. THE POWER MIRROR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOESN'T WORK AND THE SPEAKER SYSTEM HAS LITTLE TO BE DESIRED.

MY 1998 DODGE INTREPID HAS HAD PROBLEMS FROM THE MOMENT I BOUGHT THE CAR. IT FIRST STARTED WITH ENGINE PROBLEMS AND HAD TO HAVE A CRANK SHAFT PUT IN THE CAR JUST SO THAT IT WOULD RUN. I HAVE TRIED SO MANY TIMES TO GET RID OF THE CAR BUT I CAN'T BECAUSE I AM UPSIDE DOWN IN MY LOAN AND NO ONE WILL GIVE ME A DIME FOR THE CAR. EVER SINCE THE FIRST ENGINE PROBLEM I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS SINCE THEN. THE OIL PUMP WENT OUT AND I HAVE TO CHANGE THE OIL IN THE CAR EVERY 2000 MILES BECAUSE IT DRINKS OIL SO BADLY. AND FROM EVERY DEALERSHIP THAT MY MECHANIC HAS HAD TO ORDER PARTS FROM THEY SAY THE ENGINES IN THOSE CARS A SO BAD. THIS IS THE 2ND ENGINE MY CAR HAS HAD AND IT HAS ALSO HAD 1 CRANK SHAFT. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN AND CAN'T AFFORD TO GET ANOTHER CAR AND I CAN'T TRADE IT IN. IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO. *AK
OCTOBER, 2002 AND JULY, 2003. HAD TO REPLACE RELAY. LIGHTS INSIDE WERE BLINKING OCCASIONALLY, THEN TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR, ALL ELECTRIC WAS OUT. IT'S NOW MAY, 2004 AND THE LIGHTS ARE BEGINNING TO BLINK AGAIN. I'M AFRAID THE SAME THING IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
ENGINE STARTED HAVING A TICKING SOUND. TOOK VEHICLE INTO DEALER AND DEALER REPLACED THE RODS AND BEARINGS. THIS REPAIR LASTED ONE YEAR. NOW I NEED A NEW ENGINE. COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE AT 81,000 MILES. *AK
