Just wanted to know if anyone else has had trouble with this motor . From what I have researched it is poorly designed . The warranty was out by just over 200 miles ( 5 years or 115,000 kms ) and the water pump went out . ( got lucky it did not ruin the engine --- Chrysler / Dodge put it in the timing chain case ) Dealer would not cover the repair . Took it to a local mechanic . 6.5 hours labour $120 for a new pump - mech says should change the timing chain and gears they have a bad reputation of letting go at this milage as well .($600.00 ) its already apart . Long story short my bill was $1450 , the car was worth about $6000.00 My 1st Chrysler product and my last . They are still building this engine and putting it into various models . stay away from this engine . You can research it for your self and read the horror stories . I did, when it was too late.
