I WAS DRIVING TO WORK TO PICK UP PAYCHECK AND CAR STARTED TO HAVE A PINGING TYPE SOUND IN ENGINE, OPENED HOOD, NOTICED NO ANTIFREEZE (WHICH WAS JUST CHECKED 5 DAYS EARLIER AND WAS AT CORRECT LEVELS!!), THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I REALLY WISH WE COULD GET TO CHRYSLER ABOUT THE FAULTY ENGINES 2.7L ON THIS VEHICLE!!! I BOUGHT IT FROM AN OLDER COUPLE AND ONLY PUT 5000 MILES ON THE CAR. NOW I'M STUCK WITH NO CAR FOR MYSELF AND 5 YEAR OLD CHILD!!! *TR

I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A DEALER AFTER A WHILE THE MOTOR FAILED I SPENT 2600. I HAD IT REPLACED 6MO LATER THE MOTOR FAILED IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY (THE MOTOR) BUT I HAD TO PAY $800.00 FOR LABOR, THEN NOT EVEN 8MO LATER THAT MOTOR FAILED. I HAVE PUT SO MUCH MONEY IN THIS CAR WE HAVE ONLY DRIVEN IT FOR MAYBE A YEAR.
