Consumer Description

PISTON EXPLODED OUT OF MOTOR WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE. VEHICLE HAS 7,769 MILES WHEN THIS HAPPENED. NO DUMMY LIGHTS APPEARED PRIOR, VEHICLE WAS IN 'NEUTRAL' TEMP RANGE, HAD AN OIL CHANGE JUST AT 5500 MILES AND SYNTHETIC OIL WAS PUT IN AS DEALER RECOMMENDED. I'D LIKE TO ADD THAT CHRYSLER WARRANTY HAS HUNG UP AND DENIED ANY OTHER ISSUES. I'M GLAD TO SEE OTHER HAVE ENGINE PROBLEMS AND I AM SEEKING LAWSUITS. ANY HELP ON THIS WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL AS I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE RELATED TO KNOWN OIL ISSUES OR BLOWN MOTORS! THIS IS SUCH A SAFETY RISK I AM GLAD THAT MY FAMILY WAS NOT WITH ME. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WHEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENS THAT NO ONE YOU CALL FOR YOUR FACTORY WARRANTY AND GET THEIR THIRD PARTY CALL CENTERS THAT THEY DON'T TELL YOU ALL PROPER INFORMATION, NOR ARE THEY NOTING ACCOUNTS PROPERLY.
