Does anyone have any information about FCAs 3.7 V6? Are those motors pretty solid? Anything to look for or keep an eye on?

"

The 3.7l V6 is one of many engines to carry the "PowerTech" name. It was a replacement for the doomed 2.7l V6 and a precursor to the much improved Pentastar 3.6l V6, which Chrysler still uses now.

The PowerTech had a number of issues, least of which was a measly power output of around 200 horsepower. It was eventually bored out to 4.0 liters, but ultimately discontinued in favor of the 3.6l Pentastar."

Used in Jeep Liberty and Dodge Nitro

 

This doesn't seem like a good engine from the very simple google search I made {black}:excitement:

They are better than the early ones that came out. 

 

That said, they are not good engines. I would avoid them at all costs as they are very low quality motors that are bound to have numerous issues, particularly oil leaks.
