i think the outside temp and auto ac have some sort of connection...maybe the blend door is adjusted according to outside temp? interesting...let us know what you find out.
We're on the edge of our seats waiting! LOL...... I hope it's something simple. Why do they need a few days to check this? It's either cold or it's not. Watch out with that Jeep. You might get stuck! LOL.....
fastdriver(Bob) in case you forgot! ;-)
Now I'm thinking about getting an alarm for it, but the guy who runs the body shop said his Suburban was broken into twice out in the parking lot...and he has an alarm. So I don't know. Anybody know of any good alarms?
Also thinking about getting the windows tinted to it's harder to look inside, but that may just make the car more enticing, more of a "pot luck" I guess. 2000trep, let me know how your tint job goes!

May be painful to hear but the most expensive tint job I ever had was for dual level titanium film on my SUV--it was $130.00.
Sorry to hear about your car. As for the alarm, what about a Viper alarm or Lo Jack, if your police department has the equipment to track it?
Lo Jack seems to be a good deal because of the tracking device. It's like the GM OnStar that's in their newer cars.

Here in NW Wyoming I paid $169.00 to have my Intrepid windows tinted by a 3M licensed installer with 3M 35% film. Because of the 3M connection, the work came with a lifetime, no deductible, no questions asked warranty against peeling, bubbling or other manufacturing or installation defect.
I'm incredibly pleased with the car's appearance with tinted windows!!

They originally offered me a Ford Focus for a loaner, but I said that I did not want a car so small that I can park it in the trunk of my Honda Prelude. They offered the Jeep. I asked for a 300M (what the hell, worth a try) and they offered the Jeep. I know when I am licked. I took the Jeep.
Will keep you posted as soon as I learn something.

Davidu > My wife and I liked the Champagne color, but decided against it because we didn't want the tan interior (which is the only color interior that "goes with" the champagne exterior color).
I'm pretty good with identifying old cars, so a friend sent me a picture of a Chrysler Saratoga his parents had when he was a kid. Now they quit making Saratogas after 1960, but this one was clearly a 1963-64 model, and you could see where it said "Saratoga" on it.
I know those are some pretty old examples, but maybe Chrysler still builds its cars with minor variations for the Canadian market.

fastdriver- Thanks for the link, you should be on the Psychic friends network for correctly guessing my next question!!
Being a regular lurker in the 300M forum as well, I was quite intrigued with the recent "demographic poll" that many owners partcipated in over there. I thought it might be interesting to know similar information about Intrepid owners here, such as occupation, age, family and previous cars driven, so here goes:
31 year old airport manager about to depart singlehood forever, thankfully with no children to this point. Previous cars include:
1977 Chevy Malibu (cop tires, cop motor)
1985 Renault Encore (won it new in a TV station drawing- what a piece of crap!)
1978 VW Scirocco
1983 VW GTI
1990 Dodge Shadow ES Turbo (one of the best cars I've owned!)
1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP Coupe
1997 Ford Explorer XLT
LOL........."you should be on the Psychic friends network for correctly guessing my next question!!"
I was thinking of calling them to see if they could tell me when the next problem with my 300M was going to occur!!! LOL.........

Here's a pic of an Intrepid Convertible I made a few years ago playing around on the computer. Hope I posted the link right.

GREAT picture! It sure is a beauty! I think you should get a job at Chrysler's design studio! ;-)

However, it's interesting to note that National is nominally a GM rental agency. If they're renting DC product it's because they were offered a deal they couldn't refuse -- especially evident in your example, where cars built for the Canadian market were sold at fleet rates into the U.S.
But here's the real point. These cars are being sold to an off-brand rental company in huge quantities because of over-production. They're looking to unload cars they can't sell outside of the fleet market, even with $1000-2000 rebates. Those of you on this bulletin board might want to pause to consider what this is going to do to your resale values.
I just sold my '94 Eagle Vision Tsi, and you don't want to hear. . .the rest of the story.
Smart Ford dealer I'd say!

i think that sound deadening tsb (procedure) only applied to 98 models. i had it performed on my 98 intrepid. the later sound deadening improvements that came for model year 99 and 00 are not part of any tsb to the best of my knowledge. you could ask your dealership but i doubt they'd do anything. btw, the latest improvement that i know of was a new rear wheel house silencer that went into production on sept 7th of last year. if you car was made on that date or later you already have the latest upgrade. i'm not sure how you would find out the exact date your car was assembled other than calling chrysler customer service...

I finally got an alarm for my Intrepid. I got one of those Viper models that also remotely unlocks your doors. Now, if I can just get over my fear of the parking lot at Six Flags America where it got broken into...
Next step, when I get some more money saved up, is to get the windows tinted.

The manual calls for a 35 watt H-3, but the only H-3 bulbs I found were 55W or 100W. I know a 100W bulb would probably melt the lens or reflector, or set the wiring ablaze, but how about the 55W? I'd like a little more brightness in the driving lamps anyway.
Anyone got any thoughts or experience on this one?
What do you think that could be? I am tired of not being able to rely on my car.
You will probably get a better reception if you stay in maintanance topic 1414. This topic should be renamed Intrepid Huggers only. I am surprised your negative post hasn't been deleted the host here also seems to be inclined to hug DC.
