Consumer Description

Before the first oil change was due on my vehicle, the engine stalled. I took it to the nearest mechanic shop where I learned that all of the oil had been burned. I later learned that these models are notorious for this issue. My engine has stalled on me more times than I can count. Chrysler refuses to acknowledge the oil consumption problem after their 1500-1700 miles driven "tests". I have requested several times that they check oil levels between 2000-4000 miles driven as that is where the problem lies. They have ignored all requests. After sending emails to CEO's of mother companies and daughter companies, they are finally going to replace the long block on my engine. I have been fighting these issues for many years to no avail. They refuse to provide a loaner vehicle while this is being done. My car has stopped on me while driving. This is going to result is deaths if someone doesn't hold them accountable for a problem they are well aware of! This is not the only issue my vehicle has. There are several electrical issues as well.
