Intrepid Transmission Problems

Produced from 1993 to 2004, the Dodge Intrepid is a full-size four-door sedan from the automaker now known as Chrysler Group LLC. Some of the Dodge Intrepid's later model years suffer from problems with its four-speed automatic transmission.

Speed Sensors

    The 1998, 1999 and 2000 Dodge Intrepid are more likely than other model-year entries to develop failures of the transmission turbine speed sensor or the output shaft speed sensor. Failure of these parts can cause the transmission to shift poorly.

Transmission Failure

    The 2001 Dodge Intrepid is virtually free from the speed sensor failure that plagues its immediate predecessors. However, some owners have reported a far more serious problem: failure of the entire transmission itself.

Cost

    As of September 2010, it can cost about $26 for parts and $33 for labor to replace the Dodge Intrepid's faulty speed sensors. More than $2,000 would be needed in cases which require the replacement of its transmission.
