Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Blown head gasket. oil in cooling system. contacted chrysler, no help there. i still owe $5000 on a car with a messed up motor. i believe chrysler knew these gaskets were defective and did nothing about it. there was a tsb put out in 1998. why weren't owners notified of the problem. it's alot cheaper to replace the head gasket rather than replace the motor. i called the 1-800 number and they don't want to talk to me. same with the dealership i took it to. *ak
