January 1901

Purchased my 2008 dodge avenger in april 2008 and have had nothing but problem after problem with it first the air bags were recalled then the latches on the doors were recalled. The tire pressure sensor light just never goes off most recently the fuel pump went on the vehicle costing me close to 700 and now the alternator which is going to cost me another 600. What kind of vehicle did dodge build. This is some bs an all of this is while the vehicle only has about 65000 miles or less n it.
