Consumer Description

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. HAD CAR INTO REPAIR SHOP BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM. AFTER RETRIEVING VEHICLE AND DRIVING HOME, CAR BUCKED AND LUNGED ME FORWARD. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO PULL OVER THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. FORTUNATELY, NO ONE WAS FOLLOWING TOO CLOSELY. HAD TO HAVE CAR TOWED AS IT NO LONGER WOULD MOVE IN ANY GEAR. CAR SMELLED AS IF SOMETHING WAS BURNING. TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACING. CAR JUST WENT OVER 41,000 MILES WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT HOME! WILL TRY TO SEE IF CHRYSLER WILL COVER COSTS, BUT SOMEHOW I THINK I WILL BE ON MY OWN. AS MANY TRANSMISSION FAILURES AS THERE ARE DOCUMENTED JUST ON THIS WEBSITE, ONE WOULD THINK IT SHOULD WARRANT AN INVESTIGATION AT THE VERY LEAST. I ALWAYS SAID I WOULD NEVER BUY A FORD. NOW I ALSO WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER. I THOUGHT I HAD PURCHASED A GOOD QUALITY, DEPENDABLE VEHICLE. IT WILL BE TOYOTAS FOR ME FROM NOW ON.*AK
