Terrible Reliable Car

I have put $1690.00 in my 1999 Avenger, the ball joints has been horrible, the axle and control arms has went out, and I would not buy another one. The body is great and very sporty but the parts are out of this world in cost! Good Luck to anyone that owns one.

I love this car. My only complaint is the turning radius is unusually wide. And if you get lost a lot, like I do, U- turns can be a hassle.

I bought this fancy car over 230 miles away from home in Pennsylvania. I've been through the best and the worst with this car and every time I turn it on, it returns the favor. I've made some additions over the 3.7 years I've own the car, however nothing that takes away from the original showmanship. There were very few problems with this car and most of them were self inflicted. The only issue I have is that I don't have a manual transmission. Keep up the maintenance and the car will give you years of service. This car drives even better than it did the day I bought it. It ages like wine.

Is it worth it?

I got this car in June of 2009, it was a 1999 dodge avenger. After 2 weeks of having it, and being a new driver, the ball joint on the top right went out! Not only did that accident freak me out but so did the price to fix it (940.00$). this car is bad going over pot holes or divits in the road. The engine also has an odd tick to it. Not the best for a first car. Sun roof and stock sound system are pretty sick.

I got this car in the summer of '05 and it's a '99. It came with the best sound system I've heard in a long time. I haven't had to do too much but replace the battery. It's got power but not enough for the body style. On top of that it's fun to drive and with my 18 in rims on it I get lots of looks. If you like the body style I suggest you buy this car. Its reliable, sporty looking, good gas mileage, and most of all fun to drive

Ok, so maybe it's just me but I have had nothing but problems with my Avenger. It was my first car, I got it last year for about $1500, and between normal things and major things, I have spent over $3000 fixing it. Distributor went, MAP senser went, and now it just won't start so it's sitting in ym driveway. Main ignition fuse blew 2 times. Stalled 3 times in 2 months. I love the car, just had too many problems.

Best looking, and best handling car I ever owned. Pleasure to drive. The only thing I wished I had was a larger engine, both for safety and for performance reasons.

Overall - a good car

I bought my Avenger new. I looked around at cars from Chevy, and others from Dodge, and decided on the Avenger. Now two years later, I'm very pleased with my decision. Overall, its a very dependable and forgiving car, typical of the Dodge/Mitsubishi cooperative's 'Diamond Star' vehicles. The power put out by this car is generous, but does not match enough with the car's agressive stylings. Still, it has plenty of power to keep me in trouble (generally commuting 45 miles each way on interstates at 80 MPH). Fuel consumption is still good at 32 MPG.

A few problems but I am happy!

Right when I bought the car I had to put an alternator on it. There are a few other things I had to buy, but what do you expect, the car had 151,000 miles on it. The road noise is very loud. To fix it I bought some better speakers to quiet down the noise. The power steering pump makes al ot of noise as well. That will be the next thing to go out. I think the rims should be recalled, the clear coat is peeling off and looking really nasty. If you like the outside of a car buy it. That is what I did, and I am glad I did!
