| 2000 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE | SIMILAR TO AN EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS, THE ENGINE IN MY 2000 DODGE INTREPID HAS SIEZED, DUE TO OIL SLUDGE, PER MANY AUTO MECHANICS. BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN THE NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, I AM TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS NOT JUST A COINCIDENCE OR MY CAR IN PARTICULAR. I BELIEVE AT THIS TIME THAT IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THAT THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT BE MADE TO SUFFER BECAUSE OF IT.*AK |
