You may love your Dodge, but it seems your Dodge is prone to falling apart. :)

And so as a 4 wheeler you learn your lessons. Last night driving home from a wonderful Easter day at my brother's house (too bad you can't write sarcasm) my serpentine belt took a (insert bad word). So to the Dodge dealership we go at o'dark 30 this morning. After a doughnut and some free coffee we learn that our belt tightener is "missing". Hence the serpentine belt that looks like dreadlocks. Sigh....$200 bucks later....lesson learned. Always drive with a net behind your vehicle while 4 wheeling. That way any parts that fall off can be collected and superglued or duct taped back on.
Mind you this is the same vehicle that picked up a rock in a river bed and said rock proceeded to grind my brake disc away leaving a ring on the disc and chunks of the disc actually missing. Kinda reminded me of a far away moutain scene. (Yes they actually kept the disc to show to me..lol).
I love my  Dodge.
