You are in the Chrysler Concorde Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
| alot of folks here in edmunds town hall have had great experiences with their late model concordes...intrepids and 300ms. of course you'll see some dissenting voices here and there but you'll easily be able to pick up on the ones that truly don't tell ya much. i have had my 98 intrepid since december of 97 and it's been a great car. a couple of minor problems but that's it. in case your were wondering. the intrepid, concorde and 300m have many of the same parts and thus are very closely related. | |

But i have a 99 Concorde LXI and we really like it. Check out post area #451 & #453. Have an open mind and don't let everything get you. Most just like to ramble on (including me). It is a beautiful car that is well designed. Of course I have only had it for a short period of time. I backed it up with a "max Care" warranty so I am not too worried of what is said. Give it a shot. Try to read thru all of the posts to get a complete idea of what is being said before you form any opinion. The people are really quite nice and helpful here. Dont let names fool you.

| i own a 98 intrepid and am thinking of trading in my wife's 93 eagle vision on a concorde/300m/lhs - my intrepid has been flawless in both fit and finish as well as performance. No warranty work - my 95 intrepid which i traded in on the 98 performed as well - no problems - 50k when traded - the 93 eagle vision has 110k and still runs like a jackrabbit - the wife has beat the body/paint pretty well though - the quality of chrysler products has vastly improved and for the money - these cars are hard to touch - and the intrepids/300m handling is clearly above the pack | |

Please repost your post in Sedans, Topic # 423. please keep an open mind (and take no guff from them) as there are some that think Intrepids are bad cars. I have a Concorde LXI. I really love the car. |

| Thanks for the tip on how to deal with the smell. Will try it. As for the classier dials of black on white, I personnally didn't consider and LHS because of them. My humble opinion. | |
| Have hit 24,000 miles on my 1998 Concorde as of today. The only thing I have had to do is get the oils changed and front end alignment as well as tire rotation. The car was purchased in July of 98. | |

just this morning i was out at the dealership giving them a good tongue lashing over having left the oil cap off after my recent oil change. while i was there i picked up the 2000 model brochure. some interesting changes. here are the colours available. 1. inferno red 2. dark garnet 3. steel blue 4. deep slate 5. sonte white 6. bright silver metallic 7. champagne pearl 8. light cypress green 9. shale green 10 cinnamon glaze so it does look like the candy apple red, platinum, emerald green and deep amethyst are out the door. dodge also did some reworking of the options packages and groups. antilock brakes are an option on all models. no longer standard on es. leather is part of the 24m package now. the r/t version says late availability so don't know when that will show up. for those of us complaining about road noise. the brochure mentions that a new rear wheelhouse silencer will drop noise levels significantly for a much quieter ride, where have i heard this before? we'll see! but it also said that would be available late so i don't know when it will show up on production cars. many of these changes are also likely on the concorde but i can't verify that as they didn't have a 2000 model year concorde brochure. |

This is the URL that quotes MSRP on Chrysler extended warranty policies. Since you can buy the policy any time within the first 12 months, I suggest getting a commitment from a trustworthy dealer (is that an oxymoron?) that you can buy it 11.5 month after delivery at an agreed price. No point in paying the cost of money for an unnecessary year. http://www.servicecontracts.chrysler.com/fs_service_contracts.html |

My wife drives a 97 Concorde and has had no problems other than the rear window sealant oozing out onto the body. AZ is an extremely hot state.... The vent setup isn't the best, but all in all the car performs well. The acceleration is great, the ride is smooth, especially on long trips at higher speeds and it handles very well. The dealer has been very helpfull with any and all questions we've had, I expect nothing less as I'm sure you don't either. Though the car isn't perfect, it has served us well. I have no problem recommending this model vehicle to anyone. Enjoy, Celtic dog |

| Thanks to those that posted solutions to the 'mildew smell' that I notice sometimes in my '98 Concorde. Just today, I had my second passenger window motor replaced since I bought the car in Nov 98. The driver side motor has been replaced twice. Once, there were three Concordes in a row at the service department, all with window motor problems. As for road noise, it may be the Goodyear tires. I had a similar problem with my '95 Neon, but when I went to a Pirelli, the road noise was a lot less. | |
