1988 Dodge Colt / 88 Dodge Colt 1.5
| Model | 88 Dodge Colt 1.5 | |
| What things have gone wrong with the car? | Purchased few yrs back for $1,500, garaged, very clean. Had 40K orig with orig plastic on seats. Car was hardly used. Gave to son, used daily, fuhgetaboutit. Replaced everything due to age, belts, hoses, brakes, fluids, timing belts, tires etc... car did not hold up at all. Even dealer does not catalog or carry parts for this car. Tranny went, tr-shop won't touch and none in site to replace for under $1,500. Vehicle not worth that much | |
| General comments? | Cheaply made, parts hard to find and no thought for longevity. Mileage good for 3 spd auto at +-35 mpg, but no power whatsoever. Does not hold road even with good tires. No room inside, reminiscent of a "clown-car". Scary to drive when your eyes are at the level of an SUV rim. | |
