Consumer Description

ON MONDAY, JULY 9, 2007 MY CAR HAD PROBLEMS CRANKING, AND THEN HAD PROBLEMS TAKING OFF. MY HUSBAND TOOK THE CAR TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC AND WAS ADVISED THAT THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH THE TIMING CHAIN. I HAVE NOW HAD A VERY EXPENSIVE CAR REPAIR BILL TO HAVE TO FOOT. AT THIS POINT, BECAUSE OF THE UNRELIABLY AND SAFETY ISSUES, I HAVE NOW PURCHASED A NEW HONDA THAT I CAN DEPEND ON. FROM THE HUNDREDS OF LISTINGS I HAVE FOUND ONLINE I DO SEE THAT THIS IS NOT UNIQUE TO MY CAR BUT THERE ARE MANY, MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD MY OIL CHANGED EVERY 3,000 MILES AND BELIEVE THIS TO BE RIDICULOUS. *TR
