One problem related to paint has been reported for the 1996 Dodge Intrepid. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Recently I took my 1996 Dodge Intrepid into a collision repair specialist due to severe paint chipping on my hood. I was informed that this is common with Dodge vehicles - that the hoods and trunks are rusting from the inside out due to the seams being pinched welded which is allowing moisture to get inside. Also found that the trunk is rusting from the inside out, but didn't know this until we were informed of the hood. The car only has 85,000 miles and has been taken care of very well. Other than that - it is in top condition.
