New Dodge vehicles

Glad to hear it's working well.
It was a bit earlier than that the Mitsubishi engines were troublesome
in Chryslers. Their 4 cyl in the 80s burned oil too soon. Chrysler
replaced it with their own very successful 2.2L and 2.5L engines, which
we had.
The Mitsubishi 3.0L V6 was a reliable engine from friends reports, but
the Chrysler 3.3L was better from all aspects.
Glad to hear Mitsubishi solved their problems.

Great engine in our 2001 Sebring, but I hear there were problems in the
early years of that engine, as is often the case.
Wasn't '98 the first year for that engine?

My suggestion is not to buy a significant new mechanical design like an
engine or transmission for about two model years.

I have experienced grief when I unknowingly bought to soon a new design.
I could give you a real tale of grief I had with the Chrysler 4 sp
manual transmission in my '81 Horizion. Thank goodness Chrysler
replaced that transmission completely with success in the 3 rd. year,
but the time I wasted up to that time was ugly. If I had the money I
would have dumped it very soon.
