Consumer Description

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2001 DODGE INTREPID. IT HAS 89,000 MILES AND I HAVE RELIGIOUSLY CHANGED THE OIL AND FILTER EVERY THREE MONTHS SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE NIGHT OF DECEMBER 28, 2007 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR HOME AND WHEN SHE STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION THE CAR DIED. I CAME AND HELPED HER PUSH THE CAR HOME. THE NEXT DAY I HAD A MECHANIC COME TO THE HOUSE AND HE DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE HAD IN FACT SEIZED. I HAVE GOT TWO DIFFERENT ESTIMATES TO FIX THIS FAILURE AND BOTH ARE HIGHER THAN THE KELLY BLUE BOOK VALUE OF THIS VEHICLE. WHEN I CONTACTED CHRYSLER THEY REFERRED ME TO THE IMPARTIAL SERVICES GROUP WHO IN TURN REQUESTED A MOUNTAIN OF INFORMATION TO DETERMINE WHETHER MY CASE WOULD BE DEEMED WORTHY FOR REIMBURSEMENT. SO FAR I HAVE HEARD NOTHING. *TR
