Consumer Description

I WAS TRAVELING APPROX. 60 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE FAILED. THE VEHIVLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO A MECHANIC FOR EVALUATION AND IT WAS DETERIMINED THAT THE ENGINE WAS FAULTY AND THAT THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER FOR THE VEIHICLE TO BE SALVAGED. AT THIS TIME THE VEHICLE REMAINS AT THE MECANICS WHILE WE ARE TRYING TO LOCATE A "USED" OR REBUILT ENGINE, AS THE COST OF A NEW ONE IS QUITE HIGH. *AK
