Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I bought a used 2001 dodge intrepid 2.7l with 61,000 miles. i gave it regular oil changes. while driving on 114 highway my engine seized causing my power steering to fail and cause great difficulty for me to pull to the side of the road. my engine is junk and my warranty will not cover this, chrysler will also not take fault, even though i took all the necessary precautions for my car. i am afraid that someone else in my situation may not have been able to get to the side of the road like i was, and may resort in a fatal accident. i have read online and this is happening to many many people with dodge engines years 1997-2003. *nm
