Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving and all of a sudden something started bonging and i looked down to notice that the check engine light was light up and then the check oil light came on. i was trying to pull over so that i could get out of traffic but the steering wheel froze up and made it extremely difficult to steer so that i could get out of traffic. finally, after trying to steer the dead car out of traffic i called aaa and they towed it to the mechanic who has come to the conclusion it is the engine. it has been sitting there ever since due to the amount of money it will cost me to fix. after doing research regarding issues with the dodge intrepid i have come to see that i am not the only one having this problem. dodge has known about this issue and refuses to send out a recall. i find that this could be extremely fatal depending on where a person is. *jb
