DURING AN OIL CHANGE LAST FRIDAY AT SAM LEMAN'S DODGE IN PEORIA, IL I WAS TOLD THAT THE OIL PLUG RETENTION THREADS IN THE OIL PAN ARE STRIPPING AND I WAS TOLD THAT I HAVE TO GET A NEW OIL PAN DURING MY NEXT OIL CHANGE FOR MY 1999 DODGE INTREPID. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I DON'T KNOW ALL THE INTRICATE DETAILS ABOUT THE DESIGNS AND MANUFACTURING OF DODGE, BUT I WOULD TEND TO THINK THAT THE THREADS SHOULD LAST FOR LONGER THAN 30 TIMES OF SCREWING AND UNSCREWING OF THE OIL PLUG. SO, FAR THIS VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 30 OIL CHANGES. HENCE, THIS PROBLEM IS UNACCEPTABLE. I WAS TOLD THAT ITWOULD COST ME CLOSE TO $300 TO GET THIS FIXED. THANKS !*AK
