(reported on)Intrepid LX
Purchased auto from Dealer in Glenwood Iowa. Owner was Dealers father and mother. Had 20,000 miles on it. Maintenance was always done on a timely manner. Driving on the interstate car just quit. Ended up that the water pump went out blowing about 3 gallons of antifreeze into the motor oil. Totaly ruined motor. Warrantee was only 36,000 miles. I had 73,000 on it. Dealer would have nothing to do with it but wanted to charge me $8900.00 for new motor. I owed another year and a half on it. Chrysler told me that I didn't do regluar oil changes (their typical excuse for all of these situations). Ended up buying a rebuilt for $6500.00. Hopefully there will be a class action law suit on these jerks. There are several lawyers looking into this. This is a very bad engine design and Chrysler will not admit their failure.
