Consumer Description

MY HEATER IS NOT BLOWING OUT HOT AIR. I WAS TOLD THAT CASTING SAND WAS IN THE COOLING RESERVOIR THAT'S CAUSING THE HEATER TO NOT BLOW OUT HOT AIR AND THAT THE CASTING SAND WILL CAUSE SLUDGE IN MY COOLING SYSTEM. EVEN THOUGH THIS IS NO FAULT OF MY MAKING AND THIS HAPPENED AT THE MANUFACTURING PLANT DODGE WILL NOT FIX THEIR MISTAKE NOR IS IT COVERED BY MY LIFETIME ADDED CARE PLUS WARRANTY.
