NHTSA Complaint #10223680 — 2001 DODGE INTREPID

I HAD SET UP AN APPT. TO TAKE MY 2001 DODGE INTREPID IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TO HAVE THE ENGINE LIGHT CHECKED BECAUSE IT HAD RECENTLY COME ON. WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF MAKING THAT APPT., MY OIL LIGHT STARTED COMING ON EVERY TIME ON PUT THE BRAKES ON. I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE CAR IN EARLIER. WE HAD TO RENT A VEHICLE FOR THE WEEKEND WHICH WE COULDN'T AFFORD. BY THE TIME THIS WAS ALL SAID AND DONE, OUR MECHANIC TOLD US WE HAD AN ANTI-FREEZE LEAK AND AN OIL LEAK. THEY REFUSE TO REPAIR EITHER ONE BECAUSE THE LAST TIME THEY FIXED AN OIL LEAK ON A DODGE INTREPID, THE CAR STILL BROKE DOWN AND THEY GOT SUED. THEY CAN'T GET TO THE ANTI-FREEZE LEAK WITHOUT TAKING THE ENGINE OUT WHICH IN TURN WILL CAUSE MORE PROBLEMS WITH OUR ENGINE. WE'RE CONSTANTLY PUTTING OIL IN IT AND ANTI-FREEZE. WE'RE STILL PAYING ON THIS CAR. WE'RE NOT THE ONLY PEOPLE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF CLASS ACTION LAW SUITS OUT THERE AND CHRYSLER SHOULD GIVE PEOPLE THEIR MONEY BACK. WE HAVE A CHILD IN THE LATTER STAGES OF KIDNEY FAILURE AND THIS IS SUPPOSE TO BE OUR RELIABLE VEHICLE TO GET HER BACK AND FORTH TO ALBANY. *TR
