NHTSA Complaint #11653256 — 2018 CHRYSLER PACIFICA

While driving the engine light came on. I have had the van 5 months at this time. I took it to the dealership where they diagnosed it with a crack in the block. I have extended warranty, BUT the service advisor told them that this is a common issue with these vehicles and they see it all the time. NOW, my warranty denied the claim to do "MANUFACTURER DEFECT". Of course they back peddled and told warranty that it was due to a piston or detonation, TOO LATE, warranty will not cover it. Chrysler sent out an engineer who stated it was not a manufacture defect and that my warranty should cover it. Which they won't because all they heard was "MANUFACTURE DEFECT". My van has less than 100,00 miles on it and now I have no van. I can't afford the 12K for the motor and the 21K I still owe one it. Come on CHRYSLER do better for us!
