Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THERE WAS NO HEAT COMING OUT OF THE HEATING UNIT. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IS NOW AT THE DEALERS THEY WANT $900.00 JUST TO TAKE THE ENGINE APART. IF IT NEEDED A NEW ENGINE IT WOULD COST $8,000. SINCE WE STILL OWE $6000 THIS IS NOT A PRACTICAL SOLUTION. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 77,000 MILES ON IT. I CALLED DAIMLER CHRYSLER THIS MORNING AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO HELP ME. THEY STATED THE ENGINE IS ONLY WARRANTED UP TO 36,000 MILES. *TR
