Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THE VALVE SPRING BROKE AND DROPPED THE VALVE INTO THE CYLINDER CAUSING ENGINE DAMAGE. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 5.7 HEMI ENGINE . ONE THAT DODGE IS WELL AWARE OF . THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF FAVOR GIVEN ON THE MATTER . OUT OF ALL THE ENGINES I HAVE OWNED AS WELL AS WORKED ON THIS IS THE ONLY THAT HAS HAD THIS AS A COMMON FAILURE AND IT REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.
