Consumer Description

MY 2001 DODGE INTREPID, 2.7L ENGINE DIED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON SATURDAY AUGUST 19TH, THE ENGINE IS SLUDGE AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THE ENGINE SLUDGE WITH REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND MAINTENANCE. I WAS TOLD THAT MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER THIS BECAUSE IT IS SLUDGE. THE COOLANT IS ALL GONE AFTER I JUST REPLACED THE COOLANT BYPASS HOSE DUE TO OVERHEATING. I OWE A LOT OF MONEY ON THIS CAR STILL LIKE 7300 DOLLARS AND CANT AFFORD TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR AND FOR THE CAR PAYMENTS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE TO SOLVE THIS SITUATION. *JB
