 Description of the problemWhile traveling on interstate 40 on my way to work in rush hour traffic i was in the fast lane and heard a pop in the engine compartment. The lights on the dash came on and i lost all engine power. I pulled the car into neutral and attempted to restart it. When the car wouldn't restart i put on my blinker and moved to the right shoulder. I ran the code with my onboard computer and it told me that the cam shaft was in the wrong position. A roll back came and took me to the dealership where i left with the service department. An hour later while i was at work i got a call from the service department letting me know that my timing chain had malfunctioned and threatening me that if they found that i was abusing the engine that they would not honor the warranty and i would be paying for this problem out of pocket. With the vast number of people complaining about this problem on http://www. Challengertalk. Com/forums/f188/timing-chain-failure-dodge-challenger-69216/ i would think that the serious safety issue here would be looked in to.
