Description of the problem	The oil cooler which holds the oil temperature switch and oil pressure switch and oil filter housing is made of plastic and sealed to aluminum intake manifold with bolts and rubber o-rings. This part is cracked and leaking oil at top end on a hot engine; oil leaks down onto bottom of transmission and onto roadway/driveway. Car has only 60,000 miles. From looking at you tube videos and google searches, i found many cases of this. Hard to understand why recall has not already been made for something so potentially dangerous and obviously a defective part. Expenses to repair should be paid for by chrysler/dodge if recall comes after us owners spend the thousand dollars to so for parts and labor. Engine leaks when running whether parked or moving on street or highway.
