The 1996 Dodge Intrepid: before you buy
No 1996 Dodge Intrepid is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Here is what to know about the 1996 Dodge Intrepid before buying one.
What to check on the Intrepid
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA has 505 owner complaints on file, mostly about steering, engine and engine cooling and fuel system. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.
Engine and fuel
It uses the 3.3L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 35 litres, from its 11.8 L/100 km rating. In energy, every 100 km costs about $18.29 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who the Intrepid suits
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Space and size
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. At 538 litres, the trunk fits bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Rent it for a week first
A week with the Intrepid answers more than any brochure. Rent the Intrepid for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Try the Intrepid on your commute, then decide.
Choosing the right one
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Money matters
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.29 in fuel.
