ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AFTER NUMEROUS OIL CHANGES, ENGINE CHECK LIGHT SUDDENLY STARTED FLASHING WHILE ON EXPRESSWAY AND CAR LURCHED, THEN SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. AT DEALERSHIP I WAS INFORMED THAT ENGINE THREW A ROD THROUGH THE OIL PAN. I'M CONVINCED THIS IS RELATED TO THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE HEAD GASKET IN THE ENGINE, SINCE THEY ALL SEEM TO HAVE OIL LEAKS IN COMMON.*AK

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
THERE WAS AN OIL LEAKAGE AROUND HEAD GASKET. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT CHRYSLER JEEP'S HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS AND ARE BEING RECALLED. THE DODGE DEALER TOLD ME I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. MY WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED, AND THE DEALER SAID CHRYSLER WON'T PAY FOR NEONS. THIS IS A DEFECT NOT SOMETHING I DID TO THE CAR. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT. I HOPE THIS HELPS, BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX IT.*AK
