Purchased a 2001 Dodge Intrepid SE in April engine light came on Sept. 24th 2002. Dealership ran a diagnostic test, checked oil, etc., said all was well, nothing wrong with car. Drove car 23 miles, engine threw a rod. Extimated cost of repair $5,000.00, can't rebuild motor, must buy new.
We were told the car was a factory car, (it had 12,193 miles at time of purchase) and would have new warranty. We found out through carfax that it was owned and rented by a major rental company in Metairie, La., 10/10, then registered as a commercial vehicle and a lease vehichle, 11/06, then offered for sale with a dealership, 4/25/01, all of this took place with our "factory used car" before our purchase.
