Consumer Description

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH ON THE FREEWAY THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE AND THE VEHICLE STALLED SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. A INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND DETERMINED THE ENGINE FAILED AND A NEW ENGINE WOULD HAVE TO BE INSTALLED.

WHEN THE CONTACT ACCELERATED THE VEHICLE, BLUE SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE EXHAUST. THE VEHICLE ALSO FAILED THE SMOG CHECK.
