Consumer Description

I JUST BOUGHT A 2002 CHRYSLER SEBRING CONVERTIBLE. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR A MONTH, I BOUGHT IT FROM MY MOTHER. THE OIL WAS CHANGED RIGHT BEFORE I BOUGHT IT AND I HAVEN'T DRIVING MORE THAN 3000 MILES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. ON FRIDAY OCTOBER 22ND, 2010 MY ENGINE STARTED KNOCKING WHEN I STARTED IT UP AND WHEN I STARTED DRIVING IT, THE OIL LIGHT STARTED FLICKERING AND THE ENGINE STALLED OUT AT EVERY STOP LIGHT. THE CAR STARTED JERKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT AND I HAD AAA COME TOW IT TO THEIR AUTO SHOP AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT I WILL NEED A NEW ENGINE FOR THE CAR. IT HAS APPROXIMATELY 92,000 MILES ON IT AND THE MECHANIC TOLD ME ABOUT THE PROBLEMS THE 2.7 LITER ENGINES IN CHRYSLERS AND DODGES. I CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE ESPECIALLY SINCE I JUST PAID MONEY FOR THIS CAR ABOUT A MONTH AGO! I AM SO UPSET! *TR
