3 Engine problem

Failure Date: 10/10/2002

Today my Chrysler t&c broke down on me. I was very upset that this happened to me it's not even 1 year old yet. I had to leave it at the dealer over the weekend and that is our only vehicle. I tried to get a rental but they wanted to charge me a $50. 00 deposit when we would usually pay a $5. 00 one not only that, I have a service contract with Chrysler and my own auto insurance it's sad to know that I had to find a ride home, and find someone to pick up my kids from school while I was stranded waiting for the tow truck to arrive. I dont think this is fair to me because we paid a pretty penny for all the extra coverage 7yr. Or 7000 miles and to get treated this way. . . Please someone help!! thank you.
