Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

OK, I'll type slowly....

You said 4 Viper techs have looked at it and determined that it needs to go back to Arrow. But then you say that you don't want the prposed Arrow solution becasue it may get you a different year block (not sure there were that many changes to the block over the years anyway...) You hve a 2001, so it's not like it's a piston change issue.... So you are teling us that you find that solution unacceptable.

From your story - that appears to be why you have gone the route of getting the DC Zone rep involved. Who doesn't appear to have a clue.

WHAT DO YOU WANT? Maybe I am slow - so SPELL IT OUT FOR ME. If it can't be fixed without another Arrow trip, what's the point of this? What do you want the DC rep to do? ARE YOU A VCA MEMBER? Have you been working with your local club to get assistance? My guess is no.

Call me anything you want - but you still haven't said WHAT THE FREAK YOU WANT - besides a reliable car - well, we all want that.

If the D-C rep is the one standing in your way of getting another Arrow fix (assuming that's acceptable to you - but I can't tell from your posts...) and he says the car is OK at those temps - well, get it in writing and BLOW THE DAMN THING UP. then it'll have to go to Arrow.

Call me any name you want - I've helped lots of folks get their issues resolved and there's lots of folks here trying to help you.

Club president or not - I am still entitled to say what I want as I didn't opt for the spine removal procedure when I was elected.

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

JANNI,

YOUR A CLUB PRESIDENT? GEEEZE...

HAVE SOME READ TO YOU THE POST AGAIN SLOWLY! HAVE THEM EXPLAIN WHAT IT MEANS AND THAT THE TITLE SAYS "FACTORY REP SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS OK!"

WHAT THE FACTORY REP IS TELLING US IS THAT HE DOES NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH THE CAR AND IT IS NORMAL! HE SAYS DRIVING THE CAR WITH THE NEEDLE ON THE TEMP GAUGE PEGGED IN THE RED IS OK! HE HAS NOT AUTHORIZED THE SECOND REBUILD!!!..

IN ADDITION IF YOU ARE FOOLISH ENOUGH NOT TO CARE THAT WITH A CAR STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY THAT D/C WILL TRY AND PAWN OFF A BUNCH OF MISC PARTS..AND MY CAR MAY HAVE A 1999 BLOCK WITH ONE 2000 HEAD AND THE ANOTHER HEAD A 2002.. AND THAT THE CAR WILL BE GONE FOR ANOTHER 4 MONTHS THEN YOU ARE AN IDIOT..

THE ENGINE WAS SENT TO ARROW THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE IT WAS OVERHEATING! ARROW FOUND A MAJOR PROBLEM AND SAID THEY FIXED IT! THE CAR WAS DOWN FOR 4 MONTHS!

IF YOU GUYS DONT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR CAR BEING DOWN FOR ALMOST A YEAR TRYING TO FIX A FACTORY DEFECT THEN THEY SAY I MIGHT GET A BOX OF PARTS AS MY REPLACEMENT ENGINE,, THEN I GUESS THAT YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WHY IM PISSED! :confused:

What does it take for you to get it??? Turn off the caps button. Everyone has asked you to turn it off, grow up & turn it off!

With your crappy attitude its a wonder anyone replies.

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

If I were in your shoes, I'd just run it super hot till it blows. Get the dreaded frankenstein motor put in it. Sell it on E-Bay with a disclosure of the 2nd rebuild. Then go buy a new 2002 sitting on some dealers lot :cool:

You have the jack to afford a small hit on the resale, so just open your wallet a wee bit and get on with your life already :2tu:

I went thru the same exact stuff with my 2001.

All I am going to say about it is, if you have never been butt plugged by dodge this way, then you have no way of even guessing how frustrating and aggrevating it is. The car is useless, they wont fix it or even attempt to make it right, you cant sell it, so your left to either file a law suite or purposely drive the car really hot until it blows.

This is suppose to be their signature car, but in reality you get treated no better than someone who bought base Neon for under $16K. They dont care!

I will never buy any new daimler/chrysler car ever again due to way they treated me on this problem.

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

For the 5th Time! TAKE YOUR CAR TO WCV !! John Horton is a factory trained Viper Tech and he has VERY strong relations and ties to high level people within DC.He may even be able to get his time and work covered under your Factory warranty !!If not I still think its worth spending a couple hundred dollars for his time and diagnostics..Have you tried to lemon Law your car??

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

JANNI,

I HAVE SPOKEN TO JOE HAUS(PRES OF VCA) WHO HAS TRIED TO GET A D/C RESOLUTION.. IT WAS FROM THAT CONTACT THAT THE D/C REP CALLED ME TO ARRANGE AN INSPECTION OF THE CAR..DURING HIS FIRST PHONE CALL IS WHEN HE SAID THAT "ALL VIPERS RUN VERY HOT AND THAT 260 DEGREES IS NORMAL".. HE HAS ALSO REPEATED THIS ATTITUDE TO OTHER PEOPLE..

..D/C WAS CONCERNED THAT DAN CRAGIN (NOT A DEALER) HAS WORKED ON THE CAR.. THEY BASICALLY SAID BECAUSE HE IS NOT WORKING IN A DEALER THAT HE WAS INCOMPETANT...

I WILL NOT LET THE ENGINE OVER HEAT AND BLOW UP..

BASED ON THEIR ATTITUDE AND COMMENTS I AM CONFIDENT THAT D/C WILL CLAIM THAT I IN SOME WAY ABUSED THE CAR AND REFUSE TO HONOR THE WARRANTY CLAIM..

PLUS AS YOU HAVE PROBABLY READ I HAVE OTHER EXOTIC CARS , SOME FOR OVER 20 YEARS..NOT HAVING MATCHING SERIAL NUMBERS TO SOME PEOPLE (INCLUDING MYSELF) IS A MAJOR NEGATIVE FACTOR IN AN EXOTIC CARS FUTURE VALUE.. PEOPLE DONT CARE WHY THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED JUST THAT IT IS NOT THE ORGINAL ENGINE.. I HAVE INTENTIONALLY KEPT THE VIPER BASSICALLY BONE STOCK WITH ONLY A FEW ORIGINAL FACTORY MODS..

A HEMI CUDA , LS6 OR SHELBY IS WORTH HUGE $$$ WITH MATCHING NUMBERS BUT A LOT LESS WITH NON-MATCHING NUMBERS..

THERE IS NO REASON THAT I OR ANYONE ESLE SHOULD BE BURDENED WITH A $70K DEFECTIVE AND UNRELIABLE CAR.. I HAVE HAD 2 YEARS OF AGGREVATION AND NOW THEY SAY I MAY HAVE TO QUIETLY ACCEPT A MISMATCHED ENGINE.. THAT WONT HAPPEN!

WOULD YOU OR ANY OTHER VCA MEMBER EVEN CONSIDER BUYING THIS CAR AT FAIR MARKET VALUE WITH ITS WARRANTY HISTORY?

I DOUBT IT!

YELLOW FEVER,

IF ANYONE ESLE TOUCHES THE CAR D/C WILL VOID THE WARRANTY! D/C HAS SAID THAT ONLY AN AUTHORIZED DODGE DEALER CAN TOUCH THE CAR!

I AM CONFIDENT THAT WCV IS GREAT BUT DAN CRAGIN IS ALSO CONSIDERED ONE OF THE BEST VIPER TECHS AND PROBABLY HAS THE SAME CONNECTIONS.. BUT D/C DOES NOT RESPECT ANYONE NOT UNDER THEIR ROOF!

This is why I mentioned Chuck Tator he IS under their roof,send the car to him and it will be coverd not only is he under their roof he is very well respected.

Bro honestly I am willing to help you out in anyway I can but it is bothering some people so just drop the caps man people don't like it.

ExecDude- with your paper trail on this car you can surely run the motor into the ground and expect a rebuild. Blow it. Fix it. Sell it. Replace it with a matching number car. :rolleyes:

You're always spouting off about how well to do you are, and how many ultra high dollar exotics you own. You act like a freaking 16 year old who can't get over the fact that his girl just screwed his best friend. Move on already :smirk:

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

Execmalibu, just think with the numerous friends you have made with this post I'm sure you would have no trouble if you ever needed a volunteer driver from this thread to help blow up the motor. Your situation seems to have come down to two options : either run the fcker till it blows or dig deep in your pockets and pull the motor by someone that knows what the hell they are doing. Remember that most of the people here, are or I should say were on your side until you decided to consistenly be disrespectful and take your frustation out on everyone else. Why you would want to piss off the people that want to help or have the connections to helping your situation is beyond me.

Maybe he only has 1 finger, and it's too difficult to be turning the caps on and off all the time :shocked:

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

Take a look folks, this ****** goes back a bit. And he is ALWAYS trolling and complaining, he went on FOREVER on a thread that complained about the Viper not producing enough horsepower per cubic inch compared to his other exotics, but there is some really funny stuff here. All the "usual suspects" from back in the day jumped on him. I even called him "KeyboardCretin" a year ago. I had forgotten that.

Do a search under user name EXECMALIBU, make sure you capitalize it for Gods sake, and ask for results all the way back. :cool:

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

That is why I posted the following. I remember him from many previous posts. Not sure a banning is in order. But certainly a great degree of ignoring him just as you would a pouting child.

Far be it from us to indicate anything to you. I have read many complaints about your use of caps in posts over the years. To date it has not resulted in any improvement. Yet you continue to call everyone that offers comments and advice an idiot. What the hell do you expect from other owners? Respect? That needs to be mutual and you have surely not earned it. If you treat the "FACTORY REPS" the same way then I can understand why you are getting nowhere.

For you I say "GEEZE..."

Ron, I agree. I made the banning comment in jest. Lack of caps lock control and terminal whining are not bannable offenses, plus he is just so much fun when he comes here. When you look up the word WHINE in the dictonary there is a picture of this guy next to the definition of the word.

Oh, and he jumped all over Janni, when she OFFERS to help him, she has forgotten more about how to drive a Viper on the race track than this typotard will ever know. Gimme a break. And how must Dan Cragin feel after this tool comes here spouting his drivel. I'm on the east coast, Dan's on the west, never met him, would like to, I know from this board that he is among the best. Dan, just hit the down button on the door opener when this guy shows up at the shop again. :mad:

THIS POST UNREAL!!! DATED 6/02

MY brother's '01 GTS from Woodhouse is doin' the same type of thing. I monitored it with a scan tool all day today (88F outdoors) and with the A/C off the gauge (and temp sensor) tickled 240F, which in my opinion is WAY TOO HOT for any engine, let alone a high performance ALUMINUM engine.

The weird thing is that it gets to that temp about 20 seconds AFTER leaving a stop - where it sits at about 210F (nonaggressively) and then cools back down after about 30 seconds. No boilovers yet that I know of... The water pump impeller thing does make sense, but I wonder what the *other* problem is & if it's worth his pouring mod $$$ into the car. Can anyone tell me/us if the "other" 2001 problem is at least fixable, or does my brother have to melt it down and negotiate it back first???

It's killing me that there are some obvious, fatal flaws with the '01 cars, but it's some big secret & everyone has to burn up their engine and go into negotiation to see what they really are! Not bashing any of you guys though. I understand no one wants to go up against BIG 3 $$$ in a lawsuit over a nondisclosure agreement. On the other hand, it seems like at least a few of you VCA guys would be in the law field...

Any advice on whether the car's long term future is in jeopardy (should he be looking to get out of this car???). I'm sure SLTHRN can at least make a recommendation without disclosing any facts...

I HAVE RECIEVED NUMEROUS EMAILS IN THE LAST FEW DAYS FROM OTHER GEN II OWNERS THAT HAD SERIOUS OVERHEATING PROBLEMS..

D/C QUIETLY BOUGHT THESE VIPERS BACK AND THEN MADE THE OWNERS SIGN A NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT ABOUT THE CARS OVERHEATING NIGHTMARES..

POSTED MID 02
"You bring up some good points. There is a bigger problem here than just water pumps that affects 99 and newer cars overheating.

I think what Vic is getting at is that Chrysler is not fixing the engines on these cars after the water pump failure and telling customers its normal to run that hot and making them jump through hoops to make the car right again."

WHEN D/C TELLS YOU ITS RAINING...

SOME OF YOU GUYS SHOULD MAKE SURE THERE IS NOT A FACTORY REP ON THE BALCONY ABOVE YOU!

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

My 01 was running in the 180 degree area, with 180 thermostat. Starting during the trip to VOI8 it has been
consistantly running in the more upper ranges, while not yet hitting the red area. The water pump ws replaced previously but now I am wondering if it is a faulty unit also.

THIS IS 240 DEGREES ON THE FACTORY DRB.. I HAVE RECENTLY SPOKEN WITH THE HEAD D/C ENGINEER FOR THE V-10 ENGINES AND HE SAID THAT THE ALUMINUM V-10 ENGINES SHOULD NEVER EXCEED 230 DEGREES!

BUT THE FACTORY REP KNOWS BETTER..

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

California = CAPSCLOWN

Here in California they teach "kreative spelling" in our liberal schools. It's all about "doing it your way", not the "right way" (or the "acceptable norm way" for those liberals that think the word "right" is too absolute).

This is to promote "creativity"... but many people miss the point (here on the left side of the country) as "thinking out of the box" isn't the same thing as poor etiquette, sloppiness, or lack of cooperation.

Anyhow, typing in all caps might be about standing up for one's own personal preference (laziness in typing) for some, and not conforming to "the man" for others – but who REALLY knows?

Seeing that some won't back down on all caps... I'm guessing it's about "principal": You ain't the boss a me!

Well, welcome to California, where you can lead a horse to water, but can’t make ‘em drink :rolleyes:

On the other hand... has the radiator been backflushed? (My brother in law got a NEW car with pieces of cardboard clogging up the lines - it took almost a year to figure that out.) Also... what's the oil-temp look like? (is it too hot also?)

Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS

JDR,

THE RADIATOR HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A NEW LARGER 4 ROW..STILL OVERHEATS..

YOU ARE CORRECT ABOUT THE TYPING..(LOUSY AND ALSO LAZY) I SEACH AND PECK..

I HAVE SEEN OTHERS ON THIS SAME BOARD THAT USE ALL CAPS AND NOT A WORD FROM THE "CAPSPOLICE"..

NO DOUBT ALL OF THE "CAPSPOLICE" HAVE QUIET STOCK EXHAUSTS AND WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING TO OFFEND ANYONE ESPECIALLY WITH EXCESSIVE SPEED.. AND IF SOMEONE WERE TO COMPLAIN THESE SAME PEOPLE WOULD IMMEDIATELY CONFORM AND APPOLOGIZE?

I HAVE RECEIVED HUGE NUMBERS OF EMAILS FROM PEOPLE WHO USE ALL CAPS OR ALL LOWER CASE...SO WHAT? WHO CARES?

BE IT CAPS, LOWER CASE OR ALL PINK LETTERS..

IT IS ABOUT THE MESSAGE NOT THE TEXT!

IF ONE WORD IS CAPS THEN YOU MAY CONSIDER THIS YELLING.. BUT IF THE WHOLE DAM STORY IS CAPS??
