3.3 and 3.8 V6's, MUST READ FOR ALL!
And as a tech for a dealership for 20 years, you have access to the tsb's. Like I said, you can look it up. Only repair for a broken camshaft in a 3.3 or 3.8 with any significant wear (I consider 88 thousand miles to be wear and a camshaft that has failed is damage) is to replace the short block. As per chryslers own documents. Correct?
What was the fix for the turned cam bearings? What was the repair for the 3 you have seen that broke the cams?
I really would like to hear your thoughts on this as you would be an educated by expierence type of person (I am certain plenty of schooling too) who works for "them" so to speak.
Hope you bought the extended warranty, or I suppose you workin for a dealership you get the VIP treatment and get cut a break on parts or labour?
I highly doubt that they came up with this particular TSB based upon something that only occured rarely. Your shop may not have seen many but the shops around here seem to have seen quite a few from what I have learned.
Personaly I wouldn't have wished this headache on anybody, it is just plain inconvenient, so I truly hope you never have a problem with yours.
