Consumer Description

1999 DODGE INTREPID 2.7 ENGINE...GOES DEAD WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD. I HAVE HAD THE OIL CHANGED RELIGIOUSLY @ 3K MILES, BUT IT JUST LOSES POWER & DIES. I AM AFRAID I WILL GET HIT ONE OF THESE TIMES BECAUSE I AM UNABLE TO GET THE THING OFF THE ROAD WITH NO POWER. YESTERDAY ALMOST CAUSED A SERIOUS INCIDENT. THE ENGINE DIED, THE CAR LURCHED, I LOST POWER BUT NO LIGHTS EVER CAME ON. THE TACH NEEDLE HIT ZERO AND AS I WAS TRYING TO FIND SOMEWHERE TO TRY & PULL OFF WHILE COASTING, THE STUPID THING ALL OF THE SUDDEN CAME BACK TO LIFE & TOOK OFF. THESE INCIDENTS ARE GETTING MORE & MORE FREQUENT AND HAVE BEEN OCCURRING ABOUT A YEAR NOW. I'VE ALREADY HAD TO HAVE THE WATER PUMP REPLACED, BUT I CAN DEAL WITH REPAIRS...BUT AFTER DOING RESEARCH TODAY, I HAVE FOUND THOUSANDS OF INCIDENTS LIKE THIS ARE HAPPENING ALL OVER THE US! IS THIS NOT ENOUGH TO GET SOMEONE TO PAY ATTENTION & MAKE DODGE RECALL THE ENGINES BEFORE SOME TERRIBLE ACCIDENT OCCURS?? *JB
