This has nothing to do with Chrysler. You should be going after the hack that

Forgot the ????? Meaning ,it is a chrysler, not the most reliable car.
You either buy, drive and repair them when they break down( like me ) or
sell it and buy something else more reliable

OK , let me also explain the last remark since you also didnt get that 1

It states LIKE my grandpa's car , not BUY my grandpa's car.

Let use these groups to help each other with technical problems, not to
cry and bitch all the time. You bought a CAR , not a $25000 swiss
precision watch.
Cars break down.... some more then others, fix em and move on or sell
it and buy something else.

AND AGAIN NO !!!! MY GRANDPA'S CAR IS NOT FOR SALE !!!!!
