My girlfriend of 21 years, went into the doctor and when she came out her Jeep Liberty would start and then stall. She said there was clunking noise from the engine. I get there and call aaa and have it towed to a plus transmission and auto repair in brighton michigan. They said the rocker arm came lose from the adjuster and that should fix the problem. Not so, turns out it was a broken valve seat also that had dropped down into the cylinder causing catastrophic engine failure. We are left with the expense of replacing the engine at a cost to us of $5600. 00. This is a known problem with the Chrysler 3. 7 v6 engine. It happens just after the warranty expires. With todays technology I believe that that engine should have had lasted up to 200000 miles. Since we cant afford a new car this is the only way we can go. However, I believe Chrysler should help with the expense of this. Never will I buy from Chrysler again.
Pull out of driveway to stop sign. Pulled out into intersection and there was a loud bang followed by clanking noise. It turned out to be a blown engine. There was no warning, no check engine light. Engine was replaced. Now transmission is failing will file a separate complaint for that.
