1. Engine oil cooler assembly started leaking, due to oil cooler housing plastic cracked from oil changes at dealership. Leaking engine oil almost destroying engine due to lack of engine oil lubrication leaking on to the ground from the rear of vehicle and on to the ground. Vehicle was taken to the dealership and verified that the component has failed and that Chrylser has known of this issue for sometime. 2. I have replaced the bad blend door actuators multiple times on each side of the dashboard, due to the unbearable clicking noise within the dashboard and not letting the ventilation systems change directions in the vehicle.

Car began to loose power under pressure, engine light would flash. Usually when cold or pulling hard on a hill or passing. Engine ran rough, misfiring and out of balance. Could not continue to pass on one occassion; had to pull back, wrangle out of traffic and stop vehicle. Misdiagnosed: replaced plugs, coil & injector on valve #5. Did not correct. Finally diagnosed as bad camshaft. Vehicle has a hemi. Technician stated he has replaced many of these on various engines with a hemi in a four year range. Stated it is a common failure on those vehicles but not listed on a recall. This failure is a safety hazard. Having expectations of the vehicle to accelerate quickly, as it normally would, nearly caused me to get into an accident. Additionally bogged down traffic as the vehicle would not continue at a speed over 45 MPH. Traffic became bottlenecked behind me on the interstate until I could wrangle to the shoulder. I also own a dodge ram truck in the same year range and have been advised by the technician to be prepared for it to go out on that vehicle also.

On my way home from work today, I was driving about 40 MPH when I got a battery saver mode message. I had been getting the message a few days now and didn't know what to think of it. A little further into the commute, I started smelling a burning smell. All of a sudden, all of the vehicles systems start to shut down and the car just dies (while I'm driving it)! Luckily I was able to pull off into an empty parking lot using the momentum of the car, but I wasn't even able to use my hazard lights. It had completely died. Scary to say the least.
