That is not how they disabled Cash for Clunkers vehicles. The engine had to be pulled and filled with an epoxy like substance.....

Yup. Motors had to be completely trashed, beyond any possible repair, I'm not sure if they had to destroy it but I don't think they could even sell the transmissions, actually I'm not sure if they were allowed to sell any of the car for parts.

It had to be crushed.

There's also atleast this one thread on this topic back 3 or 4 years ago when it actually happened. Maybe should be merged? LOL https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...-clunkers.html

Isn't that the same thing as searching, finding your problem in a 4 year old thread, posting in that thread, and than everyone bitching because you dug up a 4 year old thread?

Just like you all said, this is real dumb. There are still good, usable parts on them trucks and they're just trashing them..
