Description of the problem | I bought this pile of c... 2 years ago and had to replace the transmission with 38000 miles on it . Now the head gasket has failed. I was about to give the dealer $800 to repair it when the told me the engine has a crack in it. Now it will be $3500. 00 for a new engine. It only has 71000 miles on it . And chrysler doesnt care that this is quite possily the worst car ever made. It ranks right up there with a yugo and a pinto |
