2001 CHRYSLER CONCORDE. ENGINE CUT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY ROAD WITH NO WARNING! CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO CHRYSLER DEALER. CHRYSLER SERVICE MANAGER SUGGESTED A JASPER MOTOR ($7270.54) BECAUSE THE CHRYSLER 2.7 LITER ENGINE THAT CAME WITH THE CAR WAS KNOWN TO SEIZE WITH SLUDGE AT 50,000 MILES. CHRYSLER HAS NOT AMENDED THE CURRENT SLUDGE PROBLEMS WITH THEIR 2.7 LITER ENGINE. THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED THE FLAWED 2.7 LITER ENGINE EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A SAFETY HAZARD. DAIMLER CHRYSLER DID , HOWEVER EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THEIR MERCEDES CARS FOR ENGINE SLUDGE, AND PAID FOR ENGINE REPLACEMENTS ON MERCEDES WITH SLUDGE ENGINES. *AK
