Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 DODGE INTREPID THAT AT APPROXIMATELY 80,000 MILES THE CAM CENSOR WENT OUT, THEN ABOUT 10,000 MILES LATER THEN CRANK CENSOR WENT OUT. WHEN THE CAR HAD 106,000 MILES ON IT MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN SHE HEARD LOUD KNOCKING COMING FROM THE ENGINE, TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP TO FIND OUT THE ENGINE SEIZED DUE TO SLUDGE. THIS CAR HAS HAD THE OIL CHANGED EVERY 3,000 MILES. THE MECHANIC SAID IT WOULD ABOUT $4,000 TO REPLACE. NOW I COME TO FIND OUT THAT CHRYSLER KNOWS THEY HAD A PROBLEM WITH THESE ENGINES AND WON'T FIX THEM. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AND NEVER EXPECTED THAT CHRYSLER WON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. *TR
