Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The car started leaking oil from the rear of the head. we replaced the head gasket with a "dealer stock only" head gasket. the car continued to leak even after the replacement. we have been notified from two different dodge/plymouth dealers that this is a known defect, but the dogde/plymouth dealers refuse to do anything about the known defect. i only want the problem corrcted before it causes more problems than is there. i have not put more than 100 miles on the car in the past year due to this problem. the car has not been registered due to it being inopperable. the only time it has been moved is when we moved. *ak
