Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Engine started using qt of oil every 1000 mi. when i started hearing something in the motor, i went to the dealer and asked about this they said to use synthetic oil, change oil at no more than 3000 mi. one week later while on a trip going down the interstate highway the engine started knocking. pulled over and had it towed to a dealer where they charged me to tell me of the death sentence on this engine. i paid them but haven't picked it up yet. they said this was a common problem and that it was my problem. the salvage yard said they already have to many of them and don't need another almost perfectly good dodge intrepid. i liked this car a lot and was about to get it repainted and some new wheels on it. *nm
