Consumer Description

PURCHASED A 2005 CHRYSLER PACIFICA FROM PRIVATE PARTY. WAS NOT TOLD ABOUT FRAME BEING RUSTED RIGHT THROUGH. WENT TO DRIVE THE CAR AND COULD NOT DRIVE. WAS SO SCARED AND I WAS NOT SAFE. BROUGHT TO MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD ENGINE CRADLE WAS ROTTED AND THE CAR WAS NOT DRIVE-ABLE AND IS NOT SAFE. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE PART TO BE FIXED. I LIVE IN A HIGH SALT BAND STATE IN NY AND IT SHOULD BE COVERED AS THE LETTER THAT WAS SENT OUT IN 2011 STATED IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. NOW I HAVE NO VEHICLE AND IT WOULD COST OVER $4500 TO BE FIXED. CHRYSLER SHOULD HAVE TO RECALL THESE CARS AND FIX THE PROBLEM. WE CAN DIE FROM THIS HUGE PROBLEM. THE ENGINE WILL JUST FALL OUT OF THE CAR. I AM REALLY HOPING THAT NHTSA WILL DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. *TR
