Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2002 DODGE INTREPID WITH 2.7 ENGINE THE OIL WAS CHANGED EVERY3K MILES AS SHOULD. IN 2008 THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF LATER TOOK IT TO DEALER WITH THOUGHT THAT WARRANTY WOULD COVER IT AND THEY WOULD NOT. THE FAILURE WAS BECAUSE OF OIL SLUDGE. THERE ARE VERY MANY COMPLAINTS AND MECHANIC INPUTS ON THIS ENGINE.. DODGE THINKS THE OWNERS ARE AT FAULT WHEN IN MY CASE EVERYTHING WAS DONE AT THE RIGHT TIME TO KEEP IT IN GOOD SHAPE. THE ENGINE IS NO GOOD THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS PRODUCT. IT CAUSES THE ENGINE TO JUST SHUT OFF WHERE EVER YOU ARE. SOME HAVE SHUT OFF ON HIGHWAYS WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS WRECKS. HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/DODGE/INTREPID/2002/ENGINE/OIL_SLUDGE_RESULTING_IN_ENGINE_FAILURE.SHTML THIS SITE HAS MANY USERS THAT HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE CAR. COULD YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR
