Consumer Description

I OWN A 2000 CHYRSLER CONCORDE WITH A 2.7 LEMON ENGINE. IT BLEW UP AT 73500 MILES. MY MECHANIC SAYS IT IS DUE TO OIL SLUDGE BUILDUP AND TOO SMALL OF OIL PORTS. I HAVE READ THE 100'S OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET AS WELL AS CHRYSLERS DENIAL OF A PROBLEM. IF FORMER EMPLOYEES OF CHRYSLER HAVE TOLD ME THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM. IT IS TIME FOR DAIMLER CHRYSLER TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND ACT RESPONSIBLY. REGARDLESS OF THEIR CLAIMS ONE OR TWO MISSED OIL CHANGES WILL NOT CAUSE TOTAL ENGINE FAILURE. IT IS NOT UNREASONABLE TO EXPECT A VEHICLE TO GO FOR 200 THOUSAND MILES OR MORE IN THIS AGE OF TECHNOLOGY! I ALSO OWN A 96 GMC YUKON WITH 156 THOUSAND MILES ON IT. IT STILL RUNS GREAT AND HAS NOT GIVEN ME ANY ENGINE PROBLEMS. *JB
