Consumer Description

1999 DODGE INTREPID ENGINE SEIZED AT ONLY 5600 MILES. THE DEALER SAID THAT THERE IS A SLUDGE BUILD UP IN THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD FROM AT LEAST 10 DIFFERENT AUTO SHOPS THAT THE 2.7 LITER DODGE ENGINE IS POORLY MADE AND THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS SAME PROBLEM TIME AND TIME AGAIN. IT RUNS WAY TOO HOT AND IF YOU DON'T CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 1500 MILES OR SO, SLUDGE WILL BUILD UP IN THE ENGINE AND CAUSE SEIZURE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS 2.7 ENGINE OR A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST DODGE.*AK
