Consumer Description

WHILE APPROACHING A RED LIGHT I HEARD A NOISE WITH A LOUD BANG ALL LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE MOTOR STOPPED. I HAD TO GET OUT BECAUSE SMOKE CAME FROM ALL OVER THE FRONT OF THE CAR WITH FEAR THAT A FIRE WOULD START I GRABBED MY GIRLS AND GOT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN MY HUSBAND GOT THERE HE OPENED THE HOOD THERE WAS A HOLE IN MY MOTOR THE SIZE OF A BASEBALL. WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA THEY TOLD ME THAT MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I INVESTIGATED AND FOUND THAT THEY ARE PAYING FOR THE MOTOR TO BE FIXED I NEED TO HAVE ALL MY RECEIPTS FROM THE OIL CHANGES WHICH I HAPPEN TO HAVE. *JB
