Consumer Description

GOING OVER A SPEED BUMP MY UNDERBODY SCRAPPED THE BUMP. WHEN I GOT HOME I HAD A SMALL AMOUNT OF RADIATOR FLUID UNDER MY CAR THE NEXT MORNING. A FEW DAYS LATER THERE WAS STILL SMALL AMOUNTS OF LIQUID UNDER MY CAR. JACK FURRIERS REPAIR SHOP SAID THE OIL COOLER WAS DAMAGED AND HAD A SMALL HOLE FROM THE FINS BEING BENT. REPAIR IS QUITE EXPENSIVE BECAUSE CHRYSLER HAS CHANGED THE STYLING OF THE PART AND IT HAS TO BE REPLACED WITH THE NEW PART. THE NEW PART I WAS TOLD WOULD BE BEING PUT IN THE PLACE WHERE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN THE FIRST PLACE TO BE SAFER FROM THE TYPES OF DAMAGES I GOT. SHOULD BE A RECALL COVERED REPAIR. THE CAR COULD OVERHEAT AND CAUSE OTHER PROBLEMS. *TR
