That YouTube account is out to attack any Chrysler products and never had real evidence to back up his claims, the 2.7 was a problematic engine blowing headgaskets frequently, BUT unlike what he say's dealers did honor warranty claims, but it was up to the dealer not the company. I still see about 15 or so Intrepids every two day's, PLENTY of Sebrings (which also utilized that engine in many cases), on Allpar there was a story in which they talked to the designers of the V6's of that era and even they said the 2.7 was a problem, they just had no time to fix the recurring issues before the new LH cars went out there. Now the optional engine for the Intrepid was the 3.5L V6, that was a fantastic engine as it shared a base with the minivan 3.3/3.8L engine, making it one of the strongest motors I've seen come from Chrysler (some have passed 500,000 miles now!). So Guy and all I recommend staying away from that YouTube user as he had a lemon or two from Chrysler and now has a full on vendetta against them, I'm sure he'd be acting similarly immature if Chevy's or Ford's or something imported did the same to him, some people are just that way for some reason, as I say hate the car not the company. Just my 2-cents.
