Was traveling on the highway all of a sudden start losing power started making a scorching and grinding sound. Made it to the side of the road car would not turn over . None of the warning lights came on. The car will turn over but u can not drive very far there's a knocking rattling noise maybe from motor. Police officer helped us get to safe place but no report was made.
Engine made rattling noise. Engine failed, engine needs to be replaced due to engine sludge after proper oil changes.
Check gauges light came on with no warning. All gauges were normal. A loud rattling sound was followed by the oil pressure dropping to zero and the engine failed. Vehicle has been towed to wiesner Dodge in rosenberg, texas. Dealer claimed sludge in the oil caused the failure. I have regular documented oil change receipts. Payment of repair (est. $6000) is pending meeting with warranty adjuster. How can our federally funded agencies ignore the vast multitude of complaints on this problem without investigating?????.
