The molding between the hood and the windshield flew off as I was driving in the freeway.

The engine in our 1999 chrysler concord blew at only 38000 miles, it was the famous flawed 2.7, Chrysler refused to replace the engine - told us we must not have changed the oil often enough! My husband is a district supervisor for a oil change chain here in michigan, the oil was changed religiously with synthetic blend, an oil far superior to the basic factory recommendations. We replaced the engine ourselves at our own expense with a 3.2 At a cost of $3000. Chrysler refuses to admit any defects in their 2.7 Motors, yet other companies whom used this engine have voluntarily recalled it! *Tr
