1 Water Pump problem

Failure Date: 09/28/2016

I was driving and with out warning a loud noise started. The car stopped on the city street and could not be moved. I was in the middle of traffic. This was an unsafe condition. The car was pushed to the curve out of the traffic. . Without warning the engine parts broke down. I had the car tolled to a station to get it fixed. I had to replaced the timing belt, timing belt tensioner, water pump, anti-freeze, serpentine belt, this cost $1,822. 28. That was 09/28/2016. I had only 74,708 miles on the car, not 100,00. The check engine light kept coming on. On 11/07/16, at a Chrysler dealer, I had a diagnosed test done. The tech found that the right cylinder head needs to be replaced. The car had only 75,209 miles. Not 100,00 miles. Is this to soon for those parts to break down and need to be replaced? I always had my car check at the Chrysler dealer for the check ups at the recormended time. I received no warning that any of these parts needed to be changed. No warning. The car just stopped. This is dangerous. There should be a recall on this car. I had just got off the beltway. I could had been killed. The replacement of the right rear cylinder head is going to cost around $5,000 dollars. I don't have that kind of money. This car should be recalled that without warning these parts will breck and stop the car from running. I brought this car brand new, not used, and I always took my car to Chrysler company for the regular check up . I have the repair invoice and the diagnois report, but I can't scan them. I can fax or mail you a copy.
