While driving my 2004 dodge intrepid, the car started to jerk, so i pulled into the gas station and called my husband. we got the car back home, noticed the spark plugs were covered in oil, so we changed the spark plugs and cleaned up the oil. then the car would not start. took the car to the mechanic and was told the timing chain had broken and bent valves. i was told i would need to get a new engine in the car. i have seen a lot of complaints about the 04 dodge intrepid 2.7l engines. dodge should really do something about this problem as it seems to happen to a lot of people. *tr

Friday august 6th i ran a few errands after work, then on the way back my car started making a banging noise. i traveled a little further then the noise became louder and louder, so i pulled over. i called my boyfriend who came in about 15 minutes and he checked under the hood. we found out that we could not get a reading on the oil stick when checking it. we took the car over to be checked by a mechanic. i seems like the oil was sludge/thick; now this is considering i got a complete oil change june 27, 2010...this incident happened august 6th. now my mechanic says that i need a new engine. i have been diligent with the maintenance on my car. i get regular oil changes and other things that's needed for my car. i have not had any real problems up until now. i have recently bought new tires, i have also had to have the alternator and battery replaced, but nothing like this. since this has happened i have read 100's of complaints concerning dodges 2.7 engines. they are notorious for doing ...

We lust purchased a used 2000 dodge intrepid it had 105,000 miles on it , it was in great condition until may 21,2010, i was on my way to my parents house and the car starting making funny noises and it just cut off with us, we tried to start it back but it failed, had it looked at, they are telling me it needs a new engine, needless to say the cost is outrageous!!!!!! i love my car, but as i read on the internet there is alot of engine problems with the 2.7l engines, is there any thing that can be done about this? *tr
The mount for my timing chain tensioner in my 2003 dodge intrepid broke and allowed the tensioner to give slack, the timing chain and caused damage to the front right piston. *tr
I purchased a 2000 dodge intrepid with a 2.7l engine from a previous owner. i put an additional $400.00 in maintenance and repair parts (including fresh oil and filter) into it and the engine literally blew up the first time it was driven 20 miles. i am a 55 year old woman that had to abandon the vehicle on the road and arrange for removal. replacing the engine with a non-defective one is cost prohibitive to me. *tr
