Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Hi, i'm someone who also has been beat up my chrysler intrepid. on wenesday feb 7, 2007 i was at an auction and saw this great looking 1999 chrysler intrepid with only 78,000 miles on it. my girl needed a good dependable car to get to work, man i didn't want another car payment, so i was very happy when i won the bid. the car ran very well, quite, 78,000 and a dodge, you could not do better than that (smile). well that's not true, my smile quickly turned into resentment after having the car only 9 days and the motor blew up. when i first got the interpid, i took it and got the oil changed the very next day, we road good for 9 days. after the motor blew i had it taken to the dodge dealership not knowing why the car had just stopped and would not start again. i'm telling myself that it couldn't be the motor, because it only had 78,000 miles on it and everyone knows an engine like that is in great shape. well i was in for a rude awakening. as the service dept took me to my car the employee told me that i should look at getting another car. i said why is that? his answer was your engine is blown and the company wont let us work on them. what! isn't dodge the maker of this car, why is it that you can't work on the car that your company made. his answer was the company just don't want us to touch them. if that isn't a dead give away on a bs engine what is, can someone please help me on what my rights or what i can do about this? *jb
