Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A USED CAR, AND SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO FIX MINOR THINGS IF THE CAR IS OLD, BUT THIS CAR IS A 1996. ALMOST STILL NEW AND I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE TRANSMISSION COULD BAD THIS SOON. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IT WAS LEAKING OIL SO I FIGURED IT WAS JUST SOMETHING SIMPLE. I TOOK THE CAR INTO JIM EARP CHRYSLER-PLYMOUTH ON 55TH AND L STREET THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY HEADGASKETS, AND BRAKES.I DID. THEY CAR WAS STILL LEAKING SO I TOOK IT BACK IN ON 6/10/99 BUT THEY COULD'T LOOK AT IT. I WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER THEY TOLD ME MY TRANSMISSION IS PROBALY CRACKED. I DO HAVE ANOTHER FRIEND WHO BOUGHT HIS CAR BRAND NEW AND THE SAME PROBLEM, HEADGASKETS WENT BAD, HIS ENGINE CRACKED, AND NOW HIS CAR IS IN THE SHOP FOR BAD TRANSMISSION. MY CAR MAKES MORE NOISE NOW AND IT DIDN'T BEFORE. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OTHERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM BUT I KNOW 2 PEOPLE AND MYSELF ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE PLYMOUTH BREEZE. *AK
