problem #3

Mar 032007

Intrepid 6-cyl

  • 132,000 miles
A friend was getting on to the highway when the accelerator stuck and reved the engine all the way. We had just put a new motor in the vehicle so he shut the car off to preserve the motor and lost most of the steering. He hit a wood sign post and coasted down the hill to a gas station. The insurance co. Totaled the car with me still owing $2,000 on the car and $2,000 on the motor. The insurance co. Only gave us $2,800 for the car so we still owe money for a vehicle that had a defect.
