Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY 2002 TOYOTA CELICA AND I WENT TO SHIFT INTO THIRD GEAR AND MISSED AND WENT INTO FIRST GEAR AND THE CAR ENGINE BLEW UP.

I NEED HELP BECAUSE I HAVE PAYMENT ON A BRAND NEW CAR WITH 3500 MILES ON IT AND IT IS SITTING IN THE SHOP AND TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO EVEN TOUCH IT.
