Good car

Good car overall though it was a little expensive when I purchased almost new. Easy to maintain. No problems out of it until 150000 miles.

Best car I have ever owned

Always reliable. Never any issues except replaced battery.. I have had for 6 years and do not have one complaint on the Avenger. I receive a complaint in my car at least once a day

Best car I ever owned.

Bought the car w 30,000 miles, now at 109,000. Have had the car for 6yrs & only problem I've ever had was the radiator blew a few months after I got it. Other than that, absolutely love my car, it has plenty of room in the front & rear seating. Rides smooth. Couldn't have picked a better car. I will definitely get the same car but newer when it's time.

Very Reliable

I owned my Avenger for 7 years and never had a problem with it. It got me through high school and college. I love the simple, comfortable interior. Very reliable!
