Consumer Description

THE ENGINE LOCKED UP ON ME WHILE DRIVING. THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON AND BEFORE I HAD THE CHANCE TO PULL OVER THE ENGINE LOCKED UP. ACCORDING TO THE OWNER'S MANUAL THE WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON FOR 4 MINUTES THEN GO OFF. MY ENGINE LOCKED UP BEFORE THE WARNING SIGNAL WENT OFF INDICATING THAT I HAD LESS THAN 4 MINUTES TO RESPOND. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS AGREED TO PAY ONE HALF OF THE REPAIRS COSTS, HOWEVER, I FEEL THAT THE OIL SCREEN IN THE OIL PAN BECAME CLOGGED AS A RESULT OF MECHANICAL FAILURE. I HAVE MAINTAINED MY VEHICLE ACCORDING TO THE OWNERS MANUAL. I FEEL THAT THIS ENGINE DESIGN IS DEFECTIVE AND WOULD LIKE FOR DAIMLER CHRYSLER TO STAND BEHIND THIER PRODUCT BY COMPLETELY PAYING FOR THE NEW ENGINE THAT I HAD TO HAVE. I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT A 1997 PLYMOUTH VOYAGER WITH ONLY 53,865 MILES SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW ENGINE, WHEN THE VAN HAS BEEN PROPERLY DRIVEN AND MAINTAINED. *AK
