1 Engine Stall problem of the 2001 Dodge Stratus

Failure Date: 01/07/2012

Very fortunate this happened as we were pulling into the garage. Suddenly sounded like someone under the hood hitting the engine block with a hammer. Now have to have a re-manufactured engine installed on a car with only 65k miles. Cant afford not to, cant scrap the vehicle with this low of miles. Ridiculous after what all I have read about the 2. 7l engine since then. I personally changed oil well under manufacturer recommendations, using synthetic most of its life.
