After puchasing my 2000 dodge intrepid es in november of 1999 and began noticing a steering vibration at approximately 37,000 miles. The vibration increased to steering difficulties while at various speeds. After opinions received from three separate mechanics, the rack and pinion assembly required replacement at a cost of approximately $1,700.00. After numerous attempts to find any recall notice for the intrepid, no dealer was able to provide any assistance.
