Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When i left the house the car was ok, i drove to my friend house the car started making a real loud noise. i shut the car off. it wouldn't start up again, i had to have it tow to shop where i bought it. i was told the timing chain was out and it would be cheaper to get another engine. now this is where the fun being. we had a difficult time finding a engine. once we did and had it put in the car, it didn't work. we brought the engine from t&m auto salvage in canton. they put another engine in the car. i drove the car about 3 months when it starting making a strange noise the warranty had expired. therefore, we took the car to the dodge dealership. they had the car a month or two. they told me they steamed clean the engine because it was sludge build up and they had to take the engine apart to replace the timing chain. now the car still isn't working correctly for whatever reason we can not afford to find out. *jb
