Consumer Description

I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK ON JUNE 28TH THE CAR BEGAN TO KNOCK AND SHAKE WILDLY. MY ENGINE JUST BLEW, I HAD OIL CHANGES REGULARLY. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH AND WORKING TO FIND ME A NEW ENGINE, MY MECHANIC SAID THAT THAT THIS ENGINE IS NOTORIOUS FOR BLOWING AND THEY USUALLY GO AT 50,000 MILES. AT LEAST I GOT 70,000. IT IS SITTING IN HIS SHOP RIGHT NOW, I CAN'T PAY FOR IT. THIS CAR COST $30,000. NEW. I LEASED IT NOW IT WILL COST $36,000. AND I WILL HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT COME DECEMBER! *NM
