Consumer Description

OIL LIGHT STARTED FLICKERING MOST WHEN I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE. THE ENGINE STARTED KNOCKING MAYBE 3 WEEKS AFTER. I KNEW I WAS DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE SO I HAD ONE DONE YESTERDAY THAT DIDN'T STOP THE KNOCKING. I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER I BROUGHT THE CAR TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AND HE TOLD ME IT WAS THE ENGINE SO LAST NIGHT AS IM DRIVING THE KNOCKING GOT REAL LOUD AND YOU COULD SMELL SOMETHING BURNING. THE OIL LIGHT WAS FLICKERING MORE. BEFORE I KNEW IT THE CAR HAD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. *TR
