Consumer Description

WHILE CONSUMER WAS DRIVING AT 55 MPH VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED. CONSUMER HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER, AND AFTER LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE, CONSUMER WAS TOLD THAT THE TIMING BELT BROKE. SHE HAD IT REPAIRED, AND ONE MONTH LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. THEN, SHE WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE ENGINE SIZE OIL SLUDGE BILLED UP IN THE ENGINE, AND CAUSED THE BELT TO POP DUE TO PRESSURE. CONSUMER STATED THAT A LAWYER TOLD HER THAT MOST PEOPLE THAT HAVE THESE TYPES OF VEHICLE USUALLY END UP LOSING IT BECAUSE OF THE EXPENSE. CONSUMER'S VEHICLE WAS STILL IN THE SHOP BECAUSE SHE COULD NOT AFFORD TO GET IT OUT. *AK
