For all those that say “Take care of your Chrysler 2.7 6cyl engines and you won’t have a problem.” You have no clue. My father is meticulous when it comes to their vehicles routine maintenance & upkeep. He religiously follows the manufacturers owners manual to its exact specifications & guidelines. My mother has a 2001 Sebring Convertible Limited with the junky 2.7 V6 engine Chrysler put in the Sebrings from 1998 to 2003 or 2004. My mother has never driven the car hard. Routine maintenance and upkeep has been performed by my father on her car exactly as it should have been to ensure they get the max lifetime use out of thr car. Sometimes done earlier than necessary if the car was driven a little distance that was not my mothers short normal “to town and back” trips. My father has 50 plus years experience & knowledge on maintaining, repairing, and even rebuilding replacing, upgrading all aspects of a car. So don’t even go saying he may have done the work wrong because you would have hundreds if not 1000s of people tell you you are very mistaken. The car has been babied & cared for as if it were a child of theirs. Yet at 132,xxx miles the car suffered a complete engine failure while my mother was on a routine trip to town and back. The failure was not caused by improper maintenance or driver abuse etc. The sole cause is the poor design quality of rhe engine by Chrysler’s engineering team. My parents are not the only ones that have experienced the exact same engine failure issue AND they too have taken care of their vehicles the way they were supposed to. The majority of people don’t go out and spend their hard earned money on something just to say to heck with it & not take of their vehicle nor care if it lasts 20,000 miles or 200,000 miles. No one with any common sense spends thousands on a car only to drive it for way less miles than the expected normal number of miles than it should be able to go only to end up having to spend thousands more in order for their car to be mechanically able to reach that point. If there wasn’t a defect/flaw with the engine from the get go then none of us innocent suckers who put our trust in Chrysler & their products to buy one of their new or used vehicles just to ultimately get screwed out of thousands of dollars by no fault of our own. Take the time to do research before leaving snarky comments based on your assumption people must not be taking care of their vehicles since you have been one of the few lucky ones that hasn’t had to go thru the engine failure experience….not yet at least!

I have a 2001 Chrysler Sebring LXI it has 2.7 liter V6 engine 132,000 mile. If you take care of it like it’s your baby then It will last you a lot longer than you expect.

They designed the 2.7 L with the water pump inside the block chamber, and when the water pump fails, it pours water into the oil pan i.e. the engine oil. It has been a bad design forever, a stronger consumer protection agency needed to have forced this engine out of the consumer product, due to its high failure rate. I am working on my sister’s car and the water pump bearings have just failed, which isn’t uncommon, but when its inside the engine cavity instead outside the engine, the water doesn’t leak on the ground it leaks in the engine.

I ha low combustion problem with timing chain 07 chrysler 300 2.7 please help me

I have a 2007 chrysler 300 with the 2.7 engine and I owned this car forb1.5 years and was never notified about this

I just bought a 2006 Chrysler seebring with 2.7 engine..it has overheated 3 times.when I got it the wiring was changed so fan would run all the time.allready had to replace 2 coils and the plastic intake is a joke.took me most of the day just to change the thermostat because of where it’s located.the metal pieces that help hold down coils just spin when I tried to take them off. Don’t know whats making it overheat..Can’t get fans to work like there supposed to.no water in oil or no oil in water.with fans running fulltime and no thermostat it still overheats.it only has 125000 miles.when I changed the temp sending unit because it would just spin .I had to remove the intake just to get to one of the bolts.

My 06 chrysler 300 2.7 runs hot and has bad struts as well please help

I have a 2002 Sebring 4 door Sedan 2.7 engine over 130,000 miles no problem with my engine. Try taking care of your car it will last you forever

My 2014 Chrysler 300 has 87,000 miles on it and has been parked for over a year due to misfiring in the engine. Chrysler said rocker arm and lifters but my mechanic was paid to take the engine apart and they were fine. Problem on diagnostic was misfire on 5. Tune up did not resolve. It was actually #2 and it was running 60 psi. Pressure test done, and oil test done. It was not a gunk build up. It was proven not to repairable and need a replacement engine. So I am left with a bad engine I can not find a replacing for and if I could wouldn’t be able to afford. I am almost completely paid off and I have no way to recoup my losses. Beyond mad and frustrated!

I too was left out of lawsuit and own a 2002 sebring LXi convertible that has had nothing g but problems! How do I get my compensation

I was not aware of this class action and was left out of it. I have a 2003 dodge intrepid with the 2.7 engine in it. The engine began losing engine coolant for no reason, had no visible leaks and there was no coolant in the oil. Engine eventually locked up one morning as I was going to work. Now the big question is, since I was not aware of this class action and was left out of it, how do I get my part of the settlement?

The 2.7l engine is also in the 2006 Dodge Magnum 6 cly car as well.

Having same problem with a town and country

I have a o6 Sebring water got into the oil some how. See all kinds of problems with these motors. What is aval. Or what do we need to do?

2006 Chrysler 300 will only go 35 mph at times read online this is a common problem

My Chrysler 300 06 2.7 l car has been a headache After 2 motors and I’m on my 3rd one still isn’t on the road my throttle body and gas pedal went out for no reason so now I replace the computer Replace my throttle body and now I have to get the Throttle and gas pedal Program To my computer

My 2005 stratus was making a weird ticking noise and all of sudden timing chain broke and made hole in top of engine cover. Not even 100 k on engine . These engines are junk and they know it. I’m so mad I changed oil vigorously because I heard they sludge up which mine did not but what good is it . Now my car just sits there a pos!

i have own this 1999 chrysler since new the main and rod bearing has been replaced three times to get 100000 miles witch i am very un happy i have other vehicle with over 300000 miles that still runs fine chrysler should be held responible for this i still have the car its in very good shape other than the motor i feel like chrysler owe me a new motor

Hey there..My my my,,I must be 1 of the few lucky guys that has not had the issues regarding the oil sludge, or the coolant contaminating the oil due to a waterpump failure.. After reading all these very sad comments regarding the 2.7 liter I don’t know what to say except,I do my own repairs & preventative maintenance on my vehicles.. I have hade two 2.7 liters.One in a 01 intrepid,which I sold & it had 195,000 kms,just under 120,000 miles,”I’m in Canada”.. Had a 03 Intrepid with a 3.5 liter & I currently drive an 05 Sebring Touring with a 2.7 liter..My Sebring currently has 166,000 kms..I had replaced the coolant bleeder valve housing/outlet as it had started to leak very little @ the base where it mounts to the motor..Changed plugs,PCV Valve,air filter,coolant,tranny filter & Trans fluid,as well as oil & filter every 4000kms/2400miles..I have trust issues with other people working on anything of mine due to witnessing complete shotty workmanship & seeing how these so called techs will try & completely screw people over with overpriced & in many cases not needed repairs..I also pop the hood of my Sebring every day to every 2nd day & check the coolant,oil,brake,power steering fluid levels as well as start it once I’ve checked the fluids & take a quick look if there’s any leaks anywhere as well as under the vehicle..It’s piece of mind for me & so far I have not had the misfortune,sadly,that many seem to have had..I hope all works out for you folks…

I’ve been having the same problem with my 2005 Chrysler 300 with water pump just hopefully got it before it’s damaged the motor

My 2006 dodge magnum with the 2.7L engine has broke down. I’ve had numerous problems with this vehicle. Oil sludge in the engine had caused me to crack a lifter. Which I had to have repaired. The car is currently misfiring and overheating. The engine in this car is crap. Excuse my language. I’ve just had it with this car already. You fix one thing and another goes wrong with this car. It’s unbelievable. A mechanic had it for over a month and was unable to fix it. He said there are too many things going wrong with the engine. He advised me to never buy one of these cars again because the engines in them are no good.

I have a 2006 dodge charger with the 2.7l with a bad motor and also a 2008 Chrysler 300 2.7l with a bad motor

I purchased a 2008 Chrysler 300 In 2009, 3rd Chrysler product I had purchased, I also purchased the bumper to bumper extended lifetime warranty at the same time. The same year the motor was replaced by Chrysler with my $1,000.00 deductible, due to a severe flood during a storm. In 2017 It was using or losing oil constantly but without any evidence of It leaking out anywhere. Could not figure out how it was using or losing the oil without seeing any evidence of it under the car. Mechanics could not figure out when changing the oil where it was going. May of 2018 it started running as though ( I thought ) transmission because it was running very sluggish, I thought maybe transmission fluid may be a little low. It would run fine for a day or so then start it again. On the 15th of May 2018 Coming home from work (17) miles it was running sluggish again. I stopped at a local auto mechanic shop in town (they who had just changed the oil a couple months prior) and asked if they would check it out and see what they thought. They did check the transmission fluids said were fine but oil was very low again so they topped the oil off and took it for a test drive to check the transmission out while driving it. When the mechanic returned he stated the transmission was fine it shifted fine all seemed good to go. We talked about how low the oil was with just a fairly recent oil change. He stated that with no oil leaking from underneath that wasn’t a good sign. I left the auto shop the car seemed fine ran fine. Less than 2 miles after leaving no indication of anything all of a sudden it sounded like everything under my hood was falling out underneath. I had never heard anything like it before. I got off of the highway and called the mechanic and told him what had happened. Said if I can get it back to the shop he would look at it the next day. (The shop had just closed) I drove it under 5 miles an hour back to the shop and shut it off. The mechanic actually came back to start it just to listen to it. The awful noise it made when he just turned the key over he said this is not good. 2 days later I get a call from the mechanic, he stated that the motor was blown the timing chain had snapped and threw a rod. I asked how out of the blue does that happen without any notice of any knocking or noises or any indication of a motor issue. That’s when he told me that Chrysler knew the 2.7 V-6 motors were junk but continued to produce and place them into their vehicles. He also told me that without pulling the top cover he bet all of the oil it was losing would be sludge inside the motor. When the car was taken to the Chrysler dealer where I purchased it, that is when it was confirmed that the oil sludge was inside the motor. The dealers own mechanic said that the motors were junk and they knew it for years but continued to place them in vehicles. There is where I was told about the class action lawsuit against Chrysler-Fiat. Their mechanic asked me not to repeat what I was told from him. They would not replace my motor even with the bumper to bumper lifetime warranty. I tried to deal with them for 2 months to fix my car and they refused. They never asked for any records of maintenance they asked for nothing and immediately said they would not fix it. I thought to be strange not asking for any maintenance records. So I was forced to have to buy another vehicle at the time I really could not afford seeing that I was a single parent with a freshman in college that I was paying for alone and another child a Junior in high school I was also raising as a single parent I was just going to let it go and I have for last year and a half two years. I finally decided to stand up for myself it may or probably is to late but I guess I can say I did try even if it is to late.

Transmission I think 2001 Chrysler concord

Brought a 2010 Chrysler Sebring in 2017 with 94,000 have not even put 2000 miles on car and it started knocking. Has water pump and timing chain failure, they are thousands of this 2.7 that has done this. Most of these motor don’t make it to 60,000 mile and Chrysler does not take any resposibily and fix anything. Everyone should boycot all Dodge and Chrysler cars and trucks until they fix all the proplems. Be smart don’t buy Chrysler or Chevy, because chevy has the death woble on the trucks and don’t want to fix it.

2001 Concord beautiful car. Engine 2.7 failed at 70,000 miles. Water in crankcase. Changed oil every 3500 Miles. Chryselephantine needs to make this right. This I has been a great disappointment. I’ be been a mo par guy since I was a teenager. 3.5 is a great engine 300m. The 4.7 Dakota had head problems and overheating. The 5.7 Jeep had soft cams and cooling issues. It’s time Chrysler starts stepping up.

We own a 2001 sebring convertible with the 2.7 engine!!! Change oil every three thousand miles and still have oil pressure blowing oil from engine from most all gaskets and seals on the engine and oil has white foam in air breather, all pvc lines !!! Have always had these problems since 40,000 miles. Very poor design, water pump driven in the oil !!! Have changed water pump because of coolant into oil!!!!! Please respond !!!

I have a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee that has a V8 the engine failed and had to put a new one in it. Now I have a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a V8 Hemi in it and the engine seized up last week. It’s all their engines not just the V6.

I have a Chrysler 300 2.7 and found out that the motor is not fixable because of water in oil and cracked head and bad water pump the motor only had 79k on it ….now this is the kicker because this is the second time this happened ,the first one was 1 yr ago I replaced the motor had 49k Chrysler needs to make it right for me.

I have a 2007 dodge charger 2.7 it keeps getting hot i have replaced all most every thing a i keep getting the same results the ecm went out 800 that the transmission reverse went out replace the reservoir hoses spark plugs radiator radiator fans thermostat and as I said only thing I have it done is a water-pump yet but there’s still no showing any sludge and no waters getting out yet what are you to do

Engine knocked on 2014, took it to the shop and the timing chain jumped and took out a valve. Total cost to repair with new chain, water pump etc and remove sludge was $2000.

2004 Dodge Intrepid 2.7L Engine that water pump went out on Nov 2015. Now it has problems with cooling & water leaks. The water pump is inside the engine and costs more to tear down engine to repair. I call it the clown engine.

I’ve onwed a Chrysler Sebring for two yrs know since I bought it I’ve already put a brand new fuelpump a purge valve solinoid and an alternator it when it gets hot outside it overheats everybody I’ve talked to tells me that it’s vapor locking the water gets hot then the oil gets really hot anyway when this happens which is a lot I have no choice but to pull off to the side I really have know choice anyway it starts knocking and pretty much stalls out on it’s own soon enough so in a way I’m kinda used to waiting untill it cools off sometimes it takes more then two or three hours but still gets very frustrating that’s how hot the oil gets anyway it’s a real pain in the butt also it’s the only car I have.

I HAVE A 2014 CHRYSLER SEBRING LIMITED EDITION CONVERTABLE WITH A 2.7 ENGINE AND APPROX 85,000 MILES. Poor engineering has resulted in high labor and parts cost. ABS wheel sensors have fail a number of times and parts are way more expensive than that used on other brand cars due to special mounting brackets included in part. The limited edition model has a special green light dash cluster that would go out intermittently while under warranty but ever time I left it for repair they said they could find no problem because it was working.The coolant bleed part on the manifold has cracked twice. I needed a thermostat replace and the labor was very high due to the difficulty and things that had to be removed for this simple job. Dealer service said I should be glad it was not the water pump because that would be about a $2,000 repair because the 2.7 is an expensive engine to work on. I enquired what the cost of the future recommended timing belt replacement with a water pump would be and was told about $2,000, that’s about twice that of other cars. Have been told you can not find a used engine in the junk yard that did not blow up. My car still looks like new and I put a new top on it in 2018 but it appears the cost of keeping it may not be worth it. I thing Chrysler should be sending a check to the original owners of a 2.7 engine to help upset the high repair costs do to their poor engineering.

2007 dodge magnum 2.7 engine failed at 97,000. Dodge wanted receipts from every oil change at an authorized dealer and after that they would consider it. No time frame. No guarantee of any reimbursement for the new engine we needed to install.

I bought a 2007 dodge charger brand new with the 2.7 litre v 6 at 63 thousand miles which was over the warranty the engine atarted knocking i went to the dealer they wouldnt do anything for me

2004 dodge intrepid 2.7. Car taken care of constantly, never neglected. 90000 miles on it. Driving down road car stalls, overheats a little, push to the side of the road. Call tow truck bring to mechanic, blown headgaskets, water pump crapped out, blown engine. What a piece of garbage, no matter how good of maintenance you do on 2.7 it’s destined for failure. Huge design flaw by Chrysler, will never buy one of there products again

I have a 2009 dodge charger the water pump dropping coolant also oil pump going out at 94,000 miles 2.7 motor

2004 Dodge Intrepid 2.7 engine owner ….always overheating,replaced water pump which is located in the engine ….yeah really,why would anyone put the water pump inside the engine???? Thermostat and engine coolant sensor replaced and still having problems…..never again will I buy dodge/Chrysler complete money pit…..the design of these cars and these engines are trash….I’m so over it

MY 2010 DODGE CHARGER WITH A 2.7 V6 ENGINE IS A PIECE OF SHIT UNBELIEVABLE NO MATTER HOW WELL I TAKE CARE OF IT THE ENGINE IS CONSTANTLY MALFUNCTIONING I WENT THROUGH 3 ECM ENGINE CONTROL MODULES ALL NEW PLUGS NEW COILS A 200 NEW BATTERY OUL CHANGED PROPERLY I EVEN USE THE BEST I HAD MY RADIATOR FLUSHED OUT AND NEW FLUID PUT IN THE BRAIN KEEPS SAYING ALL 6 CYCLINDERS ARE OPEN WHICH THEY ARE NOT I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER HE COULDN’T FIGIRE IT OUT BUT CHARGED ME 140 CASH TO DIAGNOSE IT AND COULD NOT SAY WITH ANY REASONABLE CERTAINTY WHAT IS WRONG BUT TOOK MY MONEY AND THEY ARE THE ONES WHO HAD JUST DONE MY FLUSHOUT ON MY RADIATOR AND PUT NEW FLUID IN FOR 130 THE I AM 63 I DONT DRIVE FAST ACTUALLY I DRIVE SLOWER THAN MOST DRIVERS I WANT MY MONEY BACK OR ANOTHER CAR OF EQUAL VALUE OMG INSANE MY MECHANICS SAY THESE ENGINES ARE FLAWED BIGTIME HE SEES SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH 2.7 V6 ENGINES BREAKING DOWN WAY BEFORE THEY SHOULD
