Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 DODGE INTREPID, HEARD NOISE WHILE DRIVING AND TOOK INTO DEALER. DEALER SAYS "ENGINE IS SHOT" AND THAT EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER DUE TO SLUDGE. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD MY OIL CHANGED ON TIME AND THEY THE DEALER IS SAYING WE NEVER HAD OIL CHANGED AND IF WE DID THE PLACE WE TOOK IT TO WERE CHARGING US BUT NOT CHANGING OIL. I HAVE SEEN POSTINGS ALL OVER THE INTERNET OF OTHER CONSUMERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM FOR THE SAME MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR OF CAR. I STILL OWE ON THIS CAR AND IT WILL BE A GREAT HARDSHIP TO COME UP WITH THE MONEY TO GET A NEW ENGINE. *AK
