And a bigger, baffeled oil pan would be nice while they are at it.
Good news is my father was able to push an email through to John Colletti and he is aware of the blown engine thing. He said they did not know of any problems with the 2.5 before but they will look into it. I guess time will tell if anything is going to be done. We might just be a few of the unlucky people who got bad engines. Don't know, but would like to find out. I'll keep this thread updated with any new info.
