problem #2

Intrepid 2.7L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 98,545 miles

So I live in AKRON, Ohio..right?? We buy this car from Kelly's First Class Auto Sales in Massillon, Ohio and it's just soooo nice..(note sarcasm). Well, we decide to go on a family vacation to VA for the weekend. We are driving along 77S in WV and it's running smoothly...then all of the sudden..loses speed..we smell burnt oil...AND the damn fucking piece of shit car just STOPS running. It won't restart. It won't even fucking turn over. SOOO I spent 3172.50...my ENTIRE savings..to buy a car that is DEAD. The dealer told us (me, my fiancee, and my aunt all HEARD him say) that he had his "mechanic" look over the car and it is in great RUNNING condition. Ready to go. Fucking lying ass piece of shit. Sooo GREAT that it DIES on the 15th day we own it. RIGHT?? Well now what do we do?? Ohio Lemon Law only covers WARRANTIED vehicles. He NEVER offered us the extended warranty...I've got witnesses to this. Sooo...anyone have any suggestions???

This car was running fine and all of a sudden, Poof! I had to fix my head gaskets, this requires taking out the entire transmission and then when it is fixed, if it is not put back in properly you will have problems with belts breaking!
