Default Re: Valve cover leak...

This problem has existed since this car was 'born' and the dealership where we got it replaced the housing where you fill it with oil (sorry, dont know what you call that) and called it done.

The oil weeped and seeped ever so slightly from then on. During service under warranty, they always said it was spill over or some such and we would have an occasional & slight burnt oil smell. Every time we took it in, they said that there was nothing wrong. Now it's out of warranty and we're in another state all together. We're basically screwed. Part of the shame is that it's a super low miles car and we drive it maybe once a week.

My hub's is peeved off like you cant believe but too busy to deal with it so here I am. We have no relationship with the dealership here and they arent willing to behave rationally about it. They just said, you can call Chrysler but it's outta warranty - but you can ask! I nearly said, I can just have my husband ask the big cheese when he's up in Auburn Hills selling them components.. Jerks!
