Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY ENGINE STARTED MAKING A CLANKING NOISE. AS I PROCEEDED TO GET OVER INTO THE FAR LANE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY I LOST SPEED AND THE CAR TURNED OF. I BARELY MADE IT ACROSS THE LAST TWO LANES OF HIGHWAY SAFELY COASTING ONTO THE EXIT RAMP. LONG STORY SHORT, I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY ENGINE HAD DIED DO TO SLUDGE AND THE REPAIR WOULD BE, FOR ME, VERY COSTLY. SO NOW MY BEAUTIFUL RED DODGE INTREPID SETS IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH A $4,000 BALANCE THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY OR REPAIR. *TR
