Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FOR ME LESS THAN SIX MONTHS AGO, I WENT TO PUT GAS IN IT ON SATURDAY 09/10, GOT OUT AND NOTICED A SWEET BURNING SMELL, THOUGHT IT WAS SOMEONE ELSE'S VEHICLE. I WENT TO A STORE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET GOT OUT AND NOTICED THE SAME SMELL. I THEN REALIZED IT WAS MY VEHICLE AND PROCEEDED TO GO HOME(WHICH IS A SHORT DISTANCE), THE TEMP LIGHT CAME ON, THE CONTINUOUS RINGING STARTED(AS IF I WASN'T WEARING MY SEATBELT), OTHER LIGHTS PROCEEDED TO COME ON. WHEN I TURNED INTO MY SUBDIVISION, THE CAR BEGAN SMOKING. AS I TURNED ON MY STREET, IT DIDN'T WANT TO PULL AT ALL. I MANAGED TO GET IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP ON MONDAY, BUT JUST GOT A CALL TODAY AND WAS TOLD THE HEAD GASKETS BLEW, AND IT WILL BE $3000 TO REPAIR. I'VE READ SIMILAR STORY'S ON THIS SITE FROM OTHER 2013 CHRYSLER 200 OWNERS, AND AM QUITE BOTHERED, BUT I'M ALSO WONDERING WHAT'S BEING DONE TO RECTIFY THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED OR KILLED?
