SXT Rental-200 miles of driving

This car feels like something that should be sold only as a rental. That or a car you pick up used a couple years old for 1/3 of its original price. But compared to the competition, this car feels way behind. I drove it 200 miles the other day on all kinds of roads. Summery: Pros-decent comfort, good fuel economy, relatively smooth ride on straight roads, looks pretty good Cons-TONS of body roll in turns..ride is very bouncy like an old Buick, everything in the car feels and looks CHEAP, center console is too close to the driver's right leg, 4 cyl engine is WEAK, noisy and sounds primitive and shifts slowly.

I've had my 2.7l SXT for two years now and it is still an awesome ride! It handles flawlessly, excellent in snow and rain and VERY smooth. The engine is VERY quiet and idles smooth. Overall quality has been excellent! No problems at all in the 2 years and the paint is solid. Gas mileage has been 22-24 mpg city and 28- 31 mpg highway. LOTS of power and VERY fun to drive!

I too don't understand the poor ratings from Edmunds. This car is awesome! I call it my mini-Charger! Exterior styling is great, interior styling nice with my SXT (older version as the 'newer' '09 SXT is the earlier '09 SE-a bit confusing)! Excellent sound system, Huge interior and trunk space, a real head turner! I'm 6-4" and have more space than I need without compromising space for rear passengers. Can't say enough good things about this car. oh, and 33+ mpg on the highway! Long Live Dodge!

Fierce Look / Frustrated Owner!

I purchased the Brilliant Black Crystal Pearl (paint color) it's awesome! The body style looks fierce/mean. The ride is smooth and it's got alot of room in seating and trunk space. BUT...the white interior choice is ugly (back deck & upper portion inside the vehicle). The windshield wipers-on highest speed- don't work well. Severe safety hazard. The piece they've put on the back passenger windows is a BAD blind spot. The "cooler" compartment is a total waste. As you start to drive- when the door locks fall into place, they're super loud. the turn signal sounds like it was taken out of and OLD car. Very loud with the clicking noise. MANY improvements should be made to this model

At 50,000 miles on it. It's leaking puddles of water onto my passenger floor board. Took it to my mechanic, and he said the whole dashboard is gonna have to come out. I've been through two sets of brake pads. I'm starting to believe I have a very horribly built car.
