Consumer Description

REPORTED TO DEALERSHIP THAT THEREE WS EXCESSIVE PLAY IN STEERING WHEEL. THEY REPLACED THE INNER TIE ROD BUSHINGS IN NOVEMBER OF 1999 AT A COST OF $300. SIXTEEN THOUSAND MILES AND 7 MONTHS LATER THE SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURED. THEY SAY THEIR SERVICE WARRANTY IS ONLY 12 MONTHS OR 12 THOUSAND MILES. I AM NOW FACED WITH ANOTHER REPAIR BILL. ALSO MY CRUISE CONTROL HAS QUIT WORKING. IT WOULD CUT OFF OR PICK UP SPEED THEN ONE DAY JUST QUIT WORKING TOTALLY. I DONT KNOW ABOUT THE CRUISE CONTROL BUT I THINK THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE FRONT END OF THESE INTREPIDS THAT THEY DIDNT CORRECT WHEN THEY REPLACED THE BUSHINGS.*AK
