Excellent mid range car
I purchased my 2008 Dodge Avenger in 2009. Since my purchase I have had very few problems with the vehicle and would absolutely be willing to purchase it again. The vehicle has an appealing style, drives great, gets decent gas mileage, has plenty of interior perks, and is an all around nice vehicle. There are very few drawbacks to the vehicle outside of some minor electrical problems which have popped up now and again that can’t be fixed as the cause is difficult to locate. Performance of the vehicle is top notch for its category. I have the six cylinder model and I couldn't be happier with the vehicles ability to get up and go at the press of the gas pedal. Accelerating to merge into freeway traffic or to pass slow vehicles is a breeze. The ride is fairly nice. Worse than some, but better than the majority of vehicles I have ridden in or owned. Road noise is a little loud, but the vehicle has a great sound system that can mostly cancel this out. Additionally, the vehicle is very roomy which is great as I am fairly tall.

This car is good but not perfect
This car is a pretty good car for a single person. I have a family of four, and we are pretty cramped when riding in this car. The truck is small so we have a hard time fitting the things we need for the kids in it. The back seat is small, and the front does not have much room either. The car looks sharp from the outside. We have gotten quite a few complements on it. The inside however is not as great. The material on the ceiling is worn, and the seats look like they have had better days. There was also a malfunction with the cigarette lighter that made part of the center dash melt. The engine has been fine for us, but the battery has been a struggle. A while back the battery completely died. We went to change it quick because we had a function to get to only to realize we had to take the drivers wheel off to get to the battery. That was pretty shocking to us. It took us a while to find someone that had a lift we could use, and we never made it to our function. The tires on the car when we bought it lasted a good while so we were pleased with that. Overall, the car is a good car but probably not the best if you have a family to squeeze in or if you don't have the time to properly detail clean it every week.

Do not buy this car
I do not like the 2008 Dodge Avenger. All I have to say is thank God for the warranty. What hasn't gone wrong with this car? The gear shift has gone out and this was within the first month that I purchased it. They have the speakers right next to the panels at the bottom where you store things and the speakers rattle anything that you store. Also the windows went out. My window fell down and the motor to operate the window on my passenger side stop working. Also the spark plugs went out as well. When I first took this car in for servicing after I purchased it I knew their was a problem when the Dodge place I took it to, to get the vehicle serviced was telling me I better pray that everything happens under warranty. The car is made of the cheapest plastic possible. Also there is something wrong where the door pushes it self forward and causes a popping noise when you try to open it on the passenger side. I would not recommend this car to my worse enemy. The only good thing about this car is you can plus your phone in and listen to music. Now my a/c has gone out and I only had it for 6 years.
