The 1999 Dodge Intrepid for buyers
No 1999 Dodge Intrepid is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 1999 Dodge Intrepid, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 997 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, power train and electrical system; have those parts checked.
What the specs mean
The 2.7L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
It is rated 10.7 L/100 km combined: about 32 litres every 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $16.59 to drive 100 km. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What the Intrepid is like
As a large sedan, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The EPA lists 481 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.
When the Intrepid makes sense
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Drive it on your own roads
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
What it costs to run
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
