Consumer Description

I WAS RESPONDING FROM HOME TO AN EMERGENCY PAGE WHEN I BEGAN HEARING LOUD NOISES COMING FOR THE ENGINE. I WAS TURNING A CORNER WHEN THIS BEGAN SO I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10-15 MPH. I PULLED OVER, SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. UPON ATTEMPTING TO START MY VEHICLE IT FAILED. I HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER WHICH INFORMED ME THE TIMING CHAIN CAME LOOSE AND BENT THE VALVES, DAMAGED THE HEADS. I NEED A NEED MOTOR. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $4,000 FOR A USED MOTOR PLUS LABOR COSTS. I STILL OWE $3,000 ON THIS VEHICLE. I PURCHASED IT LATE 2003 AND THE DEALER DIDN'T INFORM ME THIS WAS AN ONGOING, VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. I'M A SINGLE MOM WITH NO MEANS OF PURCHASING A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE LET ALONE THINKING OF FIXING IT. I CAN'T EVEN TRADE IT IN FOR A VEHICLE SINCE I OWE MORE THAN THE CAR IS NOW WORTH. *NM
