If you live in Los Angeles or Orange County and own a Dodge Sprinter van, you might want to contact a lemon law lawyer in Southern California. Automotive Fleet Magazine reports that more than 13,500 2002 and 2003 Dodge Sprinters have been recalled because of corroded intake manifolds.

The Dodge Sprinter 2500 and Dodge Sprinter 3500 vans were sold as Dodge and Freightliner vehicles, and if you own one it would be wise to contact a Los Angeles or Orange County lemon law attorney immediately to see if you are eligible for additional compensation.

According to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, a chemical reaction with the sulfur in the diesel fuel can cause the intake manifold to have formations of sulfuric acid. The recall requires that Dodge dealers inspect the intake manifolds of impacted vehicles and replace them free of charge if there is any damage. However, if there had been previous problems when the vans were originally purchased, a California lemon law case could be made.

Even in troubled economic times, there are certain areas that Americans refuse to skim on, and according to a recent survey by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentists one of those elements is on trips to the cosmetic dentist.

The survey showed that Americans spend roughly $2.75 billion each year on services provided by cosmetic dentists. This includes procedures to correct crooked or missing teeth such as braces or veneers along with less pressing treatments such as teeth whitening.

So why are people so concerned about the state of their smile? One reason is the correlation that people make between their smile and their chances for financial success. The survey showed that 74 percent of respondents believed that having an ugly smile could adversely impact a person’s chances at getting a job or being successful in their career. Discount dental plans can help people pay for treatment who otherwise would not be able to afford procedures like whitening or porcelain veneers.
