I have a 2005 Dodge Magnum and I went into the cleaners to drop my clothes off. I went in the cleaners and came out and attempted to start my car and it wouldn't start. I thought it was the fuel pump. I had my car towed to the shop and the mechanic stated it was my engine was out. I think its the timing chain. I seen recalls for my engine but they state its for the newer version of the hemi but I think its all the same recall. I get my car maintenance at the Dodge dealership and I haven't had any engine problems, no check engine lights , loss af power. There were literally no signs. I had got my oil changed at the dealership within a month of the incident.
