Consumer Description

CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. THE SAME "HEMI TICK" ISSUE AND CONSEQUENT VALVE/PISTON ROD FAILURE THAT HAS APPARENTLY BEEN REPORTED AND COMPLAINED ABOUT BY THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS AND THOUSANDS OF TIMES. MINE WAS FAILED SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY IDLING. THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE THAT THE VALVE SPRINGS, SPRING SEATS, AND PISTON RODS ARE MADE OF GARBAGE MATERIALS, YET DODGE REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR MAKE ANY EFFORT TO MAKE RIGHT. THIS IS A MAJOR DESIGN DEFECT AND NEEDS TO BECOME A RECALL. *TR
