Engine Belts And Pulleys problems of the 2005 Chrysler Pt Cruiser

Front crank seal is pushing out, massive oil leak. I have had this repaired 2x and it still leaking oil. The repair shop has told me that it is a manufacturers defect and that they should fix it for me. They said that it is not a matter of if it will happen again but when it will happen and it should be fixed by manufacture for me. When it leaks it leaks on timing belt and than the engine slips. Please help!.

I have a 2005 touring edition Pt Cruiser and it has been a headache for the last 21 months. In spring 2009, after having the car only 2 years, it starting leaking oil so I took into the dealership. They said the oil pan gasket was loose. They fixed it in a day and it ran fine, then a few months later, in August, it started leaking again. This time they said the oil was leaking from the front of the engine so they had to replace the cam seals, front crank seal and the oil pan gasket. I got it back a week later and was told the front brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced. I took it to a repair shop for the brakes and the mechanic said he'd never seen rotors wear that fast before. It ran pretty good until September 2009 when it started leaking oil again, took it to the dealership again this time they said they had to replace the short block, gaskets for the upper and lower engine, timing belt cover, crankshaft sprocket, and all the fluids in the car. They didn't charge for fixing this time because the said it was a manufacturing defect. Another week in the shop and they said it was in running condition again. In may 2010 all four tires needed to be replaced because of tire rot and the spare didn't look that much better then the tires. Later the same month the car started making a horrible noise need slowing to stop and starting. Took it to the dealership again, the starter and flexplate need to be replaced. It was in shop a week, went to pick it up and was informed that one of the motor mount bolts was broken. It needed to be replaced along with the motor mount itself. They also said they deemed the car unsafe to drive and would not test drive it to make sure it was running correctly. I took the car home, two days later as I was driving home the gas pedal broke. It was against the mat and I could not get the engine to rev. Thankfully I was by the median lane so I could roll out of traffic.

The contact owns a 2005 Chrysler Pt Cruiser. The contact stated that the timing belt inside of the engine failed while driving 60 mph. A near crash almost occurred. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and they stated that the warranty only covered three years and 36,000 miles. The dealer informed the contact that he would have to pay for the repairs; however, he does not want to pay. The failure mileage was 55,805.
