Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND WAS HEADING BACK HOME FROM IDAHO AND THE CAR OVER HEATED IN TREMONTON. HE CALLED AND ASKED IF THERE WAS ANY OIL OR ANYTHING IN THE DRIVEWAY. THERE WAS. WE HAVE NEVER HAD A LEAK UP TO THIS POINT WITH THE CRUISER. HE WAS STUCK FOR QUITE A WHILE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET HOME. WE ARE NOW WAITING ON THE DEALERSHIP TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG. IT SOUNDS LIKE FROM ALL OF THE BOARDS THAT I HAVE READ THAT IT IS NOT UST A SMALL ISSUE. WHEN IS CHRYSLER GOING TO GET IT IN GEAR AND DO A RECALL SO NO ONE ELSE GETS STUCK, HURT OR EVEN KILLED BECAUSE OF THE THEIR NEGLIGENCE? *TR
