Description of the problem | Started as small oil leak, kept getting worse. Told 3-4 weeks ago there was a bad head gasket and a chrysler zone rep would be contacted. Has not been contacted yet but i'm waiting for a call on monday. I was told there were 3-4 other neons in the shop when my car was being checked the first time. Also told that all vehicles with same engine are having problems but given no further details. Told not to put money into my car if i was going to get rid of it. |
