Consumer Description

ON 03/21/2013, AT APPROXIMATELY 1830 HOURS MY CAR WOULD NOT START FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I HAD TO GET MY VEHICLE TOWED TO MY HOUSE WHERE A MECHANIC EXAMINED THE VEHICLE AND OBSERVED WATER LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE. HE STATED THE CAR WAS OVERHEATING WHEN THE GAUGE NEVER DOCUMENTED SUCH A THING. HE ALSO STATED THAT THERE IS A DAMAGED HEAD GASKET AND MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL DAMAGE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE IS MAKING A "WEIRD" NOISE AND THE ONLY WAY TO DIAGNOSE ANY FURTHER PROBLEMS IS THROUGH TAKING THE ENGINE APART. I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN TO A 2006 VEHICLE. NEVER PURCHASING ANOTHER DODGE EVER AGAIN. THIS VEHICLE NEVER GAVE ME ANY PROBLEMS AND NOW ALL THIS MECHANICAL STUFF HAPPENED OUT OF THE BLUE. ALL THE FLUIDS AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN UP TO DATE AND NO THERE IS NO WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE. *TR
