Consumer Description

ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING WHILE I WAS AT 55MPH ON A RURAL ROAD LATE AT NIGHT. HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP THAT I BOUGHT CAR. TIMING BELT AND GUIDES ENG DUE TO SLUDGE BUILD UP. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED EVERY 3,000 MILES FROM WHEN I BOUGHT IT. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND SLUDGE BUT WAS TOLD THIS WAS THE PROBLEM. HAD REPAIRS DONE AFTER CONTINUAL COMPLAINTS TOOK 5 MONTHS TO GET CAR REPAIRED. 5 MONTHS LATER AND 10,000 MILES THE ENGINE GOES AGAIN. AT 21 THIS CAR SITS IN MY DAD'S DRIVEWAY RUSTING. REPLACEMENT PARTS COULD NOT BE LOCATED. REPLACEMENT OF ENGINE I CAN NOT PAY FOR. CHRYSLER WILL NOT HELP. I'VE HAD BETTER HELP FROM MY DOG! *TR
