Description of the problem | This is a problem is alot of dodge vehicles with the pentastar engines. The valvetrain is a flawed design and is costing people lots and lots of money. My problem is the roller rocker arm is worn and ticking. Not a big deal right? How about $1900+ parts and labor? We, like most americans, live paycheck to paycheck and rely on our vehicles to get us to and from work. Now, why does a vehicle, with just at 100000 miles, need new camshafts, rocker arms, and lifters? Well i'll tell you why. Because dodge is refusing to recall all these units due to expense. What about my expense? Why would they be allowed to not recall this deficient design? Just wondering. |
