Avenger

  • 89,000 miles
I have a 1999 Dodge Avenger. I bought the car in 2004 and I had the heads done on it. The transmission started acting up in 2005 and is still giving me problems. Sometimes it won't change into second until I turn the car off and restart it. The O2 sensors keep going out. The check engine light is always coming on. I am a single parent and cannot afford to keep fixing this car nor can I afford a new car. The brakes keep wearing out. I am having so many problems out this car that I don't know what to do. The shocks and struts are out. The half shaft is messed up again. I need so help with some of this repairs. Chrysler and Dodge knew these cars weren't made right now they need to help those of us who have them.

My car has pulled to the left constantly and consistantly since the day I bought it. It has been in the dealership over 10 times to correct the problem, all the time thinking that it was an alignment problem. The car has been on the "rack" many times and the dealership reported that the car was in alignment according to "specs". the last trip to the dealership resulted in a camber kit being installed on the front right control arm. The pull is not as prominant, but is still present. The dealership has informed us that there is nothing else they can or will do under warranty. (tiresize: 205/55R16)
