problem #1

2009Jun 18

Stratus SXT 2.7L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 55,400 miles

CAR STARTED WITH OIL LIGHT COMING ON. THOUGHT THAT OIL LIGHT INDICATED LOW OIL NOT THAT ENGINE WAS COMPLETELY DRY AND THERE WAS NO OIL IN CAR. ANYWAY: OIL PAN UNDERNEATH CAR WAS LEAKING OIL & ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHEN ENGINE WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL. TIMING BELT BROKE, ENGINE SEIZED UP. PAID FOR REBUILT ENGINE, TOWING, ETC. NO WONDER PEOPLE DO NOT BUY AMERICAN MADE CARS ANYMORE. I WILL NEVER BUY AMERICAN AGAIN.
