Consumer Description

I DROVE THE CAR TO WORK AND IT WORKED FINE. I FINISHED MY SHIFT AT WORK AND WHEN I TRIED TO START THE CAR TO PICK UP MY THREE KIDS I TURNED THE KEY IN THE CAR MADE A CLICKING NOISE. IT DID THIS ABOUT FIVE OF SIX TIMES. I HAD TO TOW THE CAR TO A DEALER AND GET IT CHECKED OUT. THEY SAID THE ENGINE LOCKED UP AND IT WOULD COST 4500 DOLLARS TO REPLACE IT. PLUS THE 75 DOLLARS TO CHECK THE CAR. THE CAR STILL SITS OUTSIDE THE SERVICE CENTER AT THE DEALERSHIP. ALL OIL CHANGES WERE DONE ON TIME AS REQUIRED. WE HAVE TO USE ONE CAR FOR SHUTTLING THE KIDS TO DAYCARE AND FOR TWO DIFFERENT SHIFTS OF WORK BETWEEN ME AND MY WIFE. *JB
