Consumer Description

LAST WEEK THE CAR STARED BLOWING THE DASHBOARD LIGHT FUSE. I'VE REPLACED IT 4 TIMES, AND THEY ALL BLEW WITH IN A FEW MINUTES. THE DEALER SAID THEY SPENT 2 HOURS TRYING TO FIND THE PROBLEM. I PAID THE $100.00 DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND THREE BLOCKS FROM THE DEALER, THE FUSE BLEW AGAIN. I TOOK BACK TO THEM AND WILL PAY ANOTHER $100.00 FEE TOMORROW. THE FACTORY WARRANTY RAN OUT 2600 MILES AGO, AND I PURCHASED CHRYSLER'S BEST MAXIMUM CAR UPGRADE SERVICE CONTRACT SO I WOULD NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS KIND OF STUFF, BUT IT IS NOT COVERED. NOW I HAVE A CAR I CAN'T SAFELY DRIVE AT NIGHT BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE THE DASHBOARD. *JB
