I love this car. I have had quite a growing family since purchasing this vehicle brand new in 2013. 9 years later and driven from Louisiana to Pennsylvania, to Texas, never having any major issues. I keep up with regular maintenance. Repairs haven't been expensive. This has been one of the most reliable cars I have owned. My kids love the car. It comfortably seats 5. My husband is 6'4" and prefers driving this car. Now teaching my 16-year-old how to drive and it's been a great experience. I highly recommend this vehicle. The only cons are that, if you like a vehicle full of up-to-date features and technology, this is NOT the one. It is very basic. It is an advantage for a new driver. Fewer distractions. I recommend it overall, based on my experience with reliability and affordability.

My Kind of Car

I know many are mixed reviewed over the SE model because of its barebones technical design and engine but I love it. I enjoy lesser computerized features as it is a less expensive car to repair. The gas mileage is actually not that bad at all, not the best but not nearly as fatal a flaw as some reviews have stated in my opinion. The V4 engine on the SE model is definitely powerful for a V4 and its sound makes it sound closer to a V6, which I’m sure is the allusion that Dodge wanted. It accelerates well for a V4, especially for a car of its weight but it does fall a little behind Mazda is that department. If I had to fault anything about the car, it’s the design. It looks great but the look comes with some flaws. First is the same issue I have with the Charger, and that’s the cheap fiberglass body that dents at the slightest touch. Second is the huge blind spot when backing up the car. It’s low roof and tiny windows does make this car (with no rear view camera) tough back out. So overall, I don’t think it’s nearly as bad as some might say about it. It has its flaws like most cars but it definitely gets the job done.

Do not buy this car. Transmission is known for going out as did mine. The electricals are a joke. Half of the Windows dont work. It is so cheaply made its ridiculous. My last car was a 2004 buick lesabre and i swear if i could go back i would have just kept that. Even with its age it was 10xs more reliable than the avenger. Dodge will never get my business again
