NHTSA Complaint #10413490 — 2008 DODGE CHARGER

IM SUBMITTING THIS STATEMENT FOR EVERYONE THAT HAS HAD THE UNFORTUNATE PLEASURE OF OWNING A DODGE VEHICLE. ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF AGO I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND MY 2008 DODGE CHARGER JUST DIED ON ME. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE AS A RESULT OF OIL SLUDGE BUILDUP. I SUBMITTED ALL MY MAINTENANCE RECORDS SHOWING THAT I WAS GETTING MY MAINTENANCE DONE AND THEY CAME BACK DENYING MY WARRANTY CLAIM. I FEEL LIKE CHRYSLER IS JUST A BIG RIP-OFF WITH THEIR WARRANTIES CAUSE ITS FUNNY THE SERVICE LADY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NO OIL SHOWING ON THE DIPSTICK AND I HAD MY MECHANIC TO LOOK AT MY CAR A DAY BEFORE I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS 3QTS IN THERE SO SOMETHING SOUNDS FISHY TO ME. I'VE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE AND IM NOT ALONE AND THEY REALLY NEED TO CHECK INTO THIS PROBLEM BUT ITS VERY CONVENIENT FOR THEM TO DENY HAVING TO REPLACE THEIR DEFECTIVE ENGINES. I HAVE 2 DODGE CHARGERS AND WILL BE GETTING RID OF BOTH ASAP. *KB
