If you work for Chrysler Customer relations you will be hearing from
me within the week and then you will know.

I don't.

I think it's pretty obvious now, that you fabricated most of this story.
What
I can't figure though is why you took your Yugo into a Chrysler dealership
in
the first place.

When my rear failed I checked the fluids myself before I took it in. Mine
happened at 42k. Just over the 3/36 warranty time. And I had complained of
mine making noise before the warranty ran out. Twice at the dealer ! They
just said "normal for mileage and year" yeah, right ! It failed and then
they said $900 ! I said NO WAY! and called Customer Care. I just calmly
asked for "a adjustment on a out of warranty repair". They were very
cordial and took some comments from me and then put me on hold and came back
and said "no problem, we'll cover the parts if you cover the labor". I said
fine and it cost me $300 to fix it. The Grand Cherokee now has 80k on it
and working fine. Did you call them first about this ? It's a common
failure on late model Jeeps probably since they are using junk Chinese
bearings or something in there. The earlier Jeeps hardly ever failed.

You are living proof it takes small things to entertain childish
minds.
I have better things to do with my time.
Your childish attitude surfaced quite well Teddy.
Nitey nite.

Oh goody, I was beginning to think I wasn't entertaining you
anymore.
