Consumer Description

THE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET WAS LEAKING ON TO THE MANIFOLD AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE IF NOT TAKEN CARE OF. ESTIMATE AT THE DEALER WAS FOR APPROX. $1,000. MECHANIC AT A LOCAL GARAGE SAID HE HAS REPLACED MANY ON THIS MOTOR FOR CHRYSLER AND MITSUBISHI. APPARENTLY CHRYSLER ALSO HAS REDESIGNED THE GASKET 3 TIMES IN ORDER TO CORRECT THE DEFECT. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL BECAUSE OF THE DANGER OF FIRE AND THE ORIGINAL DESIGN DEFECT.*AK
