Consumer Description

MY NAME IS [XXX] AND I OWN A 1999 DODGE INTREPID. I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THE CAR PURCHASED WITH 22,000 MILES ON IT. I KEPT UP WITH MAINTENANCE THROUGH THE ROUTE 4 CHRYSLER/ DODGE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR (WHICH HAS A PENDING CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST THEM). THE OIL LIGHT BEGAN TO BLINK SO I HAD IT DIAGNOSED AT A DODGE DEALER NEAR PISCATAWAY NEW JERSEY. I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS LEAKING OIL IN THE ENGINE. I ADVISED THEM THAT I HAVE SPECIFIC PARKING SPACES AT HOME AND WORK AND NEVER HAVE I HAD ANY OIL SPOTS UNDER THE CAR. THREE WEEKS AGO, THE CAR UNEXPECTEDLY STOPPED RUNNING WHEN I SLOWED DOWN FOR A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I STARTED THE CAR AND PROCEEDED TO TURN RIGHT AND THE CAR DIED AS I WAS TRYING TO TURN. I HAD IT TOWED TO THREE DIFFERENT AUTO MECHANICS AND ALL CONCLUDED THAT THE CAR MANUFACTURER SHOULD HAVE ISSUED A RECALL. THE ENGINE IS NO LONGER OPERABLE AND THE LOWEST QUOTE I HAVE FOUND IS $6000.00. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME?*JB INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
