I'm covered for 7 years, 70,000 miles, an extended powertrain warranty is available that goes up to 100K - but still only to 7 years. This might be the first car I trade the day the warranty goes up. If they'd just put a higher volume pump in the car it would take care of nearly all these issues (no high volume after market pump is available).

Everything I've read says the car runs fine up until the last few minutes. Salvage yards are getting $2000 - $3000 for used 2.7 engines that have the exact same problem as the engine they are replacing.

The way we drive the car will hit 7 years at 70,000 miles. Not exactly a tractor issue but thought it might be service to anyone looking at a Stratus, Intrepid, Concord or 300M with the 2.7. This engine seems is the base power plant in the big Chryslers an Dodges and fails at an alarming rate in them (as admitted by the dealer's shop manager).

I get the feeling the dealeship has no problem turning in these repairs as warranty items but it seems like Chrysler fights them on it and makes them jump through a lot of hoops before they'll cover and engine replacement.
