I will try and make this quick. Our Explorer finally arrived 5/10 at the dealership, on a 3/4 order. We went to go pick it up yesterday and everything was going well until they had to look at my trade-in again. It really stinks because we already transferred the equipment from my old car to the Ex, and the wife is really heart-broken. It has been deemed that my 2006 Chrysler Town and Country with 61K, needs a new engine. I am not kidding you that during our 9.5 week wait, we have had no issues and this issue just arised. The dealership is picking it up today to do some more testing to make sure it is an engine knock, but now they said they will have to take 3-4K off my trade-in value. I know they are not going to put a new engine in that car, it isn't worth it. So i found engines between 600-900 with varying miles close to what ours had. I know they can do this with there hands tied behind their backs and i don't want to get ripped off. Please help with your thoughts or experiences. i have never seen my wife so distraught in my life. i was going to offer them to take 2K off, i can live with that.
