Default Help please!

http://www.clearlakedodge.com/used-i...bdc4feb5bb.htm

i wanted to drive it to my shop to get it checked out.

the guy drove it up put it in reverse pulled the e-brake and got out. now the tranny is screwed. while revving the engine, trying to get the tranny to work, they blew out the radiator.

the dealership said they were gonna fix it, which they did, and call me back.

then the salesman said that he was going to have to drive it to my shop. whatever.

ON THE WAY THERE, the "thermostate broke" which they fixed.

and now, it wont start. no check engine light. the battery is drained, but they tried to jump it with another car. the starter is clicking, but its not turning over.

IM TIRED OF PLAYING THESE DUMBASS GAMES. i want to know if its going to get me to work or not. which apprantly it cant.

do any of you have any ideas on what this might be? is it something as stupid as the battery or something as serious as the enigne being siezed?

Do any of the other electronics work? If so it, could still be a battery problem! The dealer should be taking car of it! They could have gotten some of the electronics wet when the stuff blew.

Good luck and keep the dealer honest

good luck and not a bad lookin car.
