My 2013 Chrysler Town & Country has an exhaust leak. The exhaust fumes come into the cabin area of the vehicle when driving. Linwood motors in paducah, ky 42001 phone # 800-326-7604 have worked on the vehicle several times. The mechanics at linwood motors claim to have replaced the exhaust system twice, but it still leaks. On July 14, 2014 found exhaust leaking into a/c vents & blowing into cab. Tech replaced entire exhaust system. Test drove with carbon dioxide monitor from walmart, which will only detect at 30 ppm's or higher. If the monitor had indicated that there was carbon monoxide in the cab; a person could only be exposed to his level for one hour before needing to be removed to fresh air! when the vehicle was returned to us, it still was leaking exhaust fumes into the cab. We made an appointment to put the vehicle back into the shop at linwood motors on September 8, 2014 at 2 pm. When my wife and I arrived at linwood motors rick kupper and kevin jones refused to put the 2013 Chrysler t&c into the maintenance shop because they had expended all the resources the company would allow. After the 2013 Chrysler t&c has set in my yard for 16 months Chrysler has finally agreed to settle and buyback the vehicle. My new concern is that Chrysler will put the vehicle back on the market and sale it without fixing the 2013 Chrysler t&c. My wife had a stroke on June 20, 2014 and our doctors advised us to quit driving the 2013 Chrysler t&c; because my wife's doctor believes the exhaust leak contributed to her stroke. I had to purchase another vehicle to drive and lost interest on my money that I had to use from savings. Chrysler has made a belier out of me!!! I will never own another Chrysler vehicle again as long I live. Thanks Chrysler corporation for your torture. End of report.
