Consumer Description

DURING A NORMAL DRIVE AND THEN A STOP AT A RED LIGHT, CAR'S ENGINE STALLS. AFTER AUTO SHOP EXAMINATION, THE CONCLUSION WAS THAT THE BALL BEARING IN THE ENGINE'S TENSIONER LOCKED UP, THUS THROWING THE TIMING BELT OFF AND BENDING VALVES DUE TO INCORRECT TIMING. A WHOLE NEW ENGINE WAS REQUIRED TO FIX IT BECAUSE OF THE EXTENSIVE DAMAGE. OLD ENGINE HAS BEEN REMOVED AND REPLACED AND I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE AVAILABLE. *TR
