My car started making these loud noises like a truck, i took it to the dealer and they told me that it was the barons, and that it was caused by not putting oil in the car or racing it. They told me that it was not under warranty and that it will cost $4000 to have it fixed. I have my oil change every 3 months, and i go to baltimore, md and washington dc about twice a week. They will not fix it.

Our durango has stalled and the engine completely stopped on 6 different occassions, each time in traffic, each time we have nearly had an accident. Dealer and manufacturer cannot find problem, dispite 4 different inspections, though the problem did repeat for them. They still can't find the reason. Beginning lemon law proceeding.
