Consumer Description

ENGINE & OIL LIGHT REPEATEDLY CAME ON. IDLED LOW AND WOULD CUT OFF. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND CAR JUST CUT OFF WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO SLOW. CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME AND MAN HAD ROAD RAGE. LUCKILY THE CAR RESTARTED AND GOT ME INTO MY APT COMPLEX WHERE IT CUT OFF FOR THE LAST TIME. I HAD COMPLETED OIL CHANGES AS RECOMMENDED AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AS STATED PER GUY THAT ATTEMPTED TO LOOK AT THE CAR. NOW I NEED A MOTOR ON A CAR THAT IS BARELY WORTH THE VALUE OF THE CAR. THERE MAY NOT HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH, BUT THIS IS TOO COMMON A PROBLEM FOR DODGE TO IGNORE. *TR
