 Major headache has been the recent engine damage as a result of what may be oil sludge gathered in the motor. engine seized briefly upon switching from 1st to 2nd gear, then began clicking upon acceleration or deceleration to/from high rpms (upshifting and downshifting). chrysler dealership claims the problem is broken connector rod and bearing in #2 cylinder, which necessitates a new engine. estimated price tag: $10,000 (more than vehicle's worth). other problems with this vehicle have included faulty passenger airbag part that required replacement; persistent dimming/flickering of instrument panel lights; multiple battery and headlight burnouts; emission leaks on two separate occasions requiring two separate repairs; and cd player skipping, requiring (according to chrysler) a completely new stereo system. speakers are somewhat shot and the driver-side sunvisor clip broke under slight pressure. *tr
