Vehicle Detail
This car needs to find a new home. In the past 12 months, the owner has put close to $10,000 into this car, including purchase costs of $6500 initially, and $3000-plus for a replacement motor and installation, three months after purchase. Now that "replacement" motor is making ominous noises from the upper engine. One mechanic says "easy fix, $300-400," another technician says this motor is shot, too. So, the guy I'm selling this for calls me and says, "Get this thing away from my house." So I am attempting to do such. We will not pour "rotella T" heavyweight oil into it and try to fool someone into thinking the motor is ok. It starts right up, but rattles up top real bad. Its NOT any accessories making noise, its PURE BAD MOTOR, in our opinion. But we may be wrong. We dabble, but are NOT mechanics, and especially not gifted enough to challenge a Chrysler Product. Maybe you're the guy/gal who can make this thing run as good as it looks, for more than just a few months. THE GOOD---very pretty, nice leather interior, sporty in and out, good rubber. THE BAD---Faulty Motor, one nickel-sized spot on front of hood near grille (easily repairable) Climate control works, but doesn't always light up. YOU WILL HAVE TO TOW/TRAILER/ROLLBACK THIS THING HOME. Clear INDIANA title.
