Transmission is leaking fluid since purchase from axle seal transfer case. Front right strut assembly makes exstreme noises over bumps and sharp curves. Engine has developed a leak. Left driver side door can not be opened with key. Suspect flood damage due to a reoccurring odor from heater vents. We have contacted dealer more than three times and were given a "dodge" ! Dealer has changed the buisness name and states has no longer an obligation to honor these problems which we encountered under warranty! Also, air condition unit has been leaking and was serviced under warrenty and remains a problem. There are several other items too long to list. The bottom line is that this vehicle is failing rapidly mechanically! I feel strongly that I have been "ripped off!" by this dealer and am in need of some sort of solution!.
