Consumer Description

My cam failed after lifter got stuck at 65k miles, dealership repairs went bad after the first repair attempt they covered. I drove the jeep 19 miles after I bought it.. Then the low oil pressure light came on as the engine locked up. Was at dealer 6 weeks but it was not repaired correctly before i picked it up. On the way home from dealer oil pressure light came on half a sec before the engine seized up. I had to walk 5 miles and get a row truck from my work. 14 days to repair it after I purchased a new mopar long block. Dealer installed in 2 days. Cam lobs where gone and oil was almost magnetic due to camshaft lifter contact. I live in Michigan and i was half tempted to drive to fca in auburn hills just to show them 4 identical camshaft lifter failures I have seen in 3 years from friends and customers. I will probably have to file a lawsuit to recoup some if not all of the last repair cost. Old engine was dealership served at 3 to 4k miles religiously and it still failed. My jeep is ok now after paying for new engine before i even drove it home once. 2 months and $38k plus a few thousand in repairs all due to a shady dealership named Feldman automotive group.I don't think this is morally correct on any level. Makes me sick to pay 40k for the 2014 jeep grand cherokee srt used with low miles and tons more in repairs the first 29 miles. 2 months of hell. plus it ruined my financial stability. Why doesn't the dealership warranty a repair they did before a sale if it fails the same day. Something need to rectify my financial loss before I snap thinking about it 24-7. Feldman automotive group should of covered second repair attempt as first was unsuccessful.
