Consumer Description

The oil filter housing on this vehicle is dumping oil from the back. I have had an issue with it not wanting to go over 35MPH and sounds like a misfire in my car it has had sort of an odd sound when turned on I have had to park it to avoid having any further issues but was informed that the particular part always malfunctions in Chrysler vehicles and yet no recall has been issued it seems sort of strange when the part and labor could cost over $800 to fix
