Consumer Description

CHECK GAUGES LIGHT CAME ON WITH NO WARNING. ALL GAUGES WERE NORMAL. A LOUD RATTLING SOUND WAS FOLLOWED BY THE OIL PRESSURE DROPPING TO ZERO AND THE ENGINE FAILED.

PAYMENT OF REPAIR (EST. $6000) IS PENDING MEETING WITH WARRANTY ADJUSTER. HOW CAN OUR FEDERALLY FUNDED AGENCIES IGNORE THE VAST MULTITUDE OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS PROBLEM WITHOUT INVESTIGATING????? *AK
