Consumer Description

THE ENGINE FAILED TO TURNOVER DURING A START. THE TIMING CHAIN IS NOT WORKING AND HAS CAUSED MAJOR DAMAGE TO FUEL INJECTORS AND THE BASIC FUNCTIONING OF THE CAR. MANY THINGS HAVE BEEN CHANGED OR REPAIRED ON THE CAR BUT, I ALWAYS GET A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT COMES ON CONSTANTLY WITHIN MINUTES OR DAYS OF A REPAIR. THE CAR SOUNDS LIKE A DIESEL TRUCK ENGINE WHEN IT IDLES, OR IS STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS. THE BELTS MAKE LOTS OF WHINING NOISES. THE CAR IN THIS RESPECT HAS COST ME LOTS OF $$ AND IS JUST SITTING IN A PARKING LOT UNDRIVEABLE. *TR
