I am the second owner of this vehicle purchased in 2007. At 60,000 I had the rack in pinion replaced at about 1000 dollars, next was the cooling fan at 75,000 miles (cost 700. 00 dollars). Then at about 90,000miles the water pump, thermostat, tension pulley and timing belt had to be changed for a grand total of 1300 hundred. I am now at 100,000 miles. I have had suspension issues since about 40,000 miles have maintained oil changes and maintenance. This seems unfair!.
The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Magnum. The contact noticed that the engine warning indicator sporadically illuminated on the instrument panel. He took the vehicle to the dealer and they replaced the thermostat. Two weeks after the repair, he took the vehicle back to the dealer and they stated that the fans were defective and were not cooling the engine properly. Secondly, because the vehicle exceeded its warranty, the contact would have to pay $6,000 to have the engine replaced. As of March 20, 2009, the vehicle has not been repaired. The failure and current mileages were 48,000.
