Oil leak from head gasket.

My 97 Plymouth Breeze is leaking oil from the head gasket, this repair is going to cost me $250. Chrysler notes they don't have to repair this problem because my car is out of warranty. Chrysler knew there was a defective head gasket problem with this car, I was never notified of this problem, which should have been repaired under warranty. I understand parts can go bad, but not with this frequent occurance and Chrysler acknowledging a problem. This problem not only could possibly be a safety issue due to car failure on a highway, but it is an environmental issue with motor oil polluting roads and driveways, then being washed into the drains. There should be a mandatory recall based on the amount of oil being leaked into our environment.

Blown head gasket. $900 to repair. No satisfaction from the dealer or the manufacturer. I was told this happens to all cars. But I doubt it happens to "all cars" with only 37,000 miles!

Purchased vehicle 9/97 w/23 miles. Original headgasket failed at around 50,000 miles in 3/98, Plymouth offered to replace 50/50. Second headgasket failed around 86,000 miles 12/99 replaced as "goodwill" service; 3/01 vehicle has around 119,500 miles and needs another headgasket replacement. Chrysler nor dealership will replace for free. Will cost $750.

In March 2000, noted a small leak of coolant from radiator. No warning lights or overheating problems occured which would indicate serious problems. Vehicle taken to dealer who informed us of head gasket failure causing coolant to enter transmission and oil to enter cooling system. Head gasket replaced along with dealer suggested flushing of transmission and raditor and replacement of necessary belts and hoses. In July 2000 another leak of coolant. Dealer advised us of complete radiator failure. Both dealers state this failure is not linked to original head gasket problem. Radiator and all hoses replaced.
