Consumer Description

PURCHASED A 1999 DODGE INTREPID IN 2002, WHICH WAS A PROGRAM CAR AND IT ONLY HAD 10,000 MILES ON IT AT AROUND 65,000 MILES I HAD TO REPLACE THE DUAL OVERHEAD CAM CHAINS. ONE YEAR LATER THE ENGINE BEGAN TO KNOCK AND THEN SEIZED UP. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY YARD SINCE 2003. I HAVE ALL THE RECORDS IN WHICH WE HAD THE OIL CHANGED EVERY 3,000 MILES AND THE REPAIRS FOR THE TIMING CHAINS. THIS VEHICLE RIDES NICE, DRIVES NICE, BUT THE 2.7 LITRE ENGINE IS A PIECE OF CRAP AND BECAUSE IT IS A PIECE OF CRAP NO ONE WANTS TO WORK ON THEM AND SUGGEST THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT WORTH AS MUCH AS IT WOULD COST TO REPAIR IT. I FEEL THAT THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR PUTTING SUCH A CRAPPY MOTOR IN SUCH A NICE VEHICLE. *TR
