How many miles will a 1993 Intrepid last?
The 18 mileages owners gave run from 40,000 to 159,370 miles, and half are at or under 105,000. With fewer than 20 mileages this page gives the median only: the other percentiles are too few to say. 10 came after 100,000 miles, 1 after 150,000 and none after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 1993 Intrepid wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.

Is the 1993 Intrepid a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 1993 is a good or a bad Intrepid: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 1993 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 408 complaints, the 1993 ranks 7th of the 12 Dodge Intrepid model years from 1993 to 2004 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2000 (1,065). The fewest: the 2003 (106).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 1993 Intrepid lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 1993 Intrepid.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 390 of the 408 complaints on the 1993 Dodge Intrepid give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA name counted: INTREPID. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only this one.
- Recall-file name matched: INTREPID.
