I have a 2001 Intrepid, bought it with 7,995 miles on it. From the time I purchased the car I had a vibration in the steering wheel. I had the car back immediately and they told me that it had something to do with the tires and caused no safety risk. This became worse, I took it back again with the same problem, only now worse especially at highway speeds. They now told me that the rotors were worn and needed to be turned down. The service manager told me that this was not covered since the warranty was only good for 15,000 miles and this had been exceeded. Well the problem still existed, and now I needed to replace the rotors and brake pads. This problem continues and now 2 years later have to replace the rotors, brake pads, and some tell me to change to brake hoses and the calipers along with this. My dealer does not want to work with me, but can stand there and tell me that this a common problem with the Intrepid, concorde, lxi, 300m --- and the kicker is that they are not concerned with this because the warranty is up. I have only 7,000 miles on the new rotors, brake pads and brake hoses and now they need to be replaced again. I pay enough for this piece of !@#$%, and every three months I have to put hundreds of dollars into the braking system. I have never been this unhappy with a vehicle, and I have owned many new vehicles.

I would first and formost like to report the premature wear of the steering rack on my 1996 Dodge Intrepid at around 77,000 miles. The rack had to be replaced at a hefty price. I have since learned that this is an alarmingly widespread problem with Chrysler lh bodied vehicals, especially Dodge Intrepids, and has been for many years. I had the rack replaced about three years ago and already my car is showing symptoms of more steering related problems. I drive only a moderate amount so this could not be just "usual wear and tear". In addition to the steering rack, within the last three years I have had to have an axel replaced, all of the breaks due to prematurly warped rotors (the breaks actually went out once and I almost rear ended someone), the multifunction switch had to be replaced, the transmission shifts hard and gets stuck in gear for a mysterous reason no one can figure out, and a loose wire caused the car caused multable drivability problems. (the date below is not accurate, these things occured between 2003 and present).
