Used 2011 Dodge Avenger Mainstreet 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A) Consumer Reviews
1 1/2 years later I still love it
I have owned many dodge vehicles in my life time but this has to be the best for the dollar. I purchased mine in March of '11 the mainstreet heat series. I was at the dealership getting my Jeep serviced (vehicle that I HATED) when I saw the truck pull in with my Avenger on it...BlackBerry Pearl..she was pretty. Took a different color out for a test drive because that one wasn't even in the system yet and was super impressed!!! I went back after thinking about it and got the one I wanted! The list of features on this vehicle has no end therefore trying to "trade up" for the price becomes very hard to do! Love my climate control. Was very disappointed that dodge knocked down the 2012 model
Dodge for Life!!
Bought the Avenger Heat with the Pentastar V6. Very powerful and sporty car, Getting just around 33MPG Highway way above the est. 29MPG and about 25 in the city....Just hate those Early shifts from the transmission, and also the unavoidable torque steer from the 300 HP engine bogging down the power steering. The entire is like a jump into a lavish sport sedan....Soft touch leather everywhere, Dodge U-connect phone is sometimes awful....The touch screen gets gummed up really easy, but the seats are stain resistant and everything is easy to see and very user friendly. Love this car and hope to keep it for many years to come.

Dodge Avenger Heat is nice!
This car was a purchase for my son, who just turned 16. It is the Heat addition, which as far as I can tell, is the performance version. It has 79,000 miles, but is in great shape. It is an attractive car, think mini Dodge Charger on the outside. The interior is nice looking, with decent materials and fit and finish. It's not a Bentley, but it's very nice for its cost and class. It has many nice features, including a moonroof and bluetooth radio, and all of the extras work well and are intuitive. The car is rated at 19 city mpg and 29 highway. It has the V6, which is strong and fun (maybe too much so for a 16-year-old, but I digress). Most importantly for a new driver, it has a lot of safety features, such as front wheel drive, airbags everywhere, traction control, and, of course, antilock brakes. It was also an IIHS top safety pick back in 2011, so if anything can make me feel at ease with my soon-to-be licensed son driving around, this car is it.

My 2011 Dodge Avenger is JUNK
I bought my 2011 Dodge Avenger New (23 miles on it) I started having transmission problems at 500 miles, clunking,jerking, its scary sometimes, it now has 21000 miles been in shop 14 times, still no fixed, Dodge Corp. says all dodges do it , its normal.. there liars to me the main dodge mechanic's came on feb 4 and checked my car out I don`t know how when it was in my garage on that day..I feel that anyone wanting to buy a car Stay Away From Dodge there Junk..this is my first dodge & last.. Dodge transmission mechanic told me the computer needs updates witch Dodge doesn`t have, last Tuesday Beth at Dodge Corp. told me it was a one driver car ! Liar's , Liar`s , Liar`s . Very Sad Com
Better Than You Think
Bought in Heat trim with the 3.6 Pentastar V6... Edmunds wouldn't let me choose that for a trim. MSRP was close to $26K but I got it for just above $18K. Car has plenty of power, my only gripe with performance is the economy-minded transmission. It's quick to get to high gear and sometimes needs a stab of the gas to shift down. Otherwise, a fun car to drive that never feels underpowered. I get around mid-20s MPG but probably could do better if I kept my foot off the gas pedal. Smaller than a lot of midsizers nowadays but there's more room than you'd expect. Nobody feels crampt. The cabin for '11 is much nicer with plenty of high quality materials. Rides smoothly and there's little noise.
