Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE WAS RECENTLY FOUND TO HAVE A RUSTED OUT ENGINE CRADLE DURING A ROUTINE INSPECTION. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER, AND THEY WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE REPAIR. MY MECHANIC HAS TRIED TO FIND ONE IN A JUNK YARD TO REPLACE IT, BUT EVERY PACIFICA IN THE JUNK YARD HAS A RUSTED OUT ENGINE CRADLE. THEY KNOW THIS IS A PROBLEM AND REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. MY STATE HAS MANDATORY INSPECTIONS. I SHUDDER TO THINK OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN SOMEONE IS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD UNAWARE AND THEIR ENGINE FALLS OUT. *TR
