Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving my 2001 chrysler concorde from my home to go shopping in town, when the engine oil light came on, and my car suddenly died. it was towed to bob ridings ford dealership, where i was told the engine had spun 3 rod bearings, due to engine sludge in motor. my vehicle has only 49,000 miles on it, and i have records of my oil changes. what am i supposed to do with this car. i have been told it is not under warranty, due to owner neglect. so now i am responsible for paying to have a replacement motor put in my car. which is only 2 years old, and only had 23,217 miles on it when i bought it. if this is how chrysler cars hold up , then i would suggest to other consumers to buy japanese, as my husband has a 1985 nissan 300zx, with 157,000 miles and has never had a motor problem, same oil, same oil changes as my concorde.*ak
