Consumer Description

MY CAR FROM WORK LIKE ANY NORMAL NIGHT WHEN ALL OF SUDDEN MY CAR SHUT OFF AND WOULD NOT START BACK UP. EVENTUALLY I CALLED MY INSURANCE TO HAVE IT TOWED HOME SINCE AFTER 11PM. THE NEXT MORNING I HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO DODGE TO BE INFORMED THAT ENGINE HAD BLOWN. MY CAR GAVE ME NO INDICATION OR SIGNS AT ALL BEFORE THIS HAPPEN. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS BLOWN DUE OIL SLUDGE. I VERY ANGRY ESPECIALLY SINCE DODGE ONLY CHANGED MY OIL AND WAS NOT TOLD ABOUT THIS EARLIER. MY COUSIN HAS DODGE CHARGER AS WELL AND ENGINE BLOWN 8 MONTHS BEFORE MINE FOR THE SAME REASON. WHEN I TOLD THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME I SHOULDN'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING I HEAR. I WILL NEVER BUY A CAR FROM DODGE AGAIN. *TR
