Consumer Description

AT 64K MILES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY ENGINE STARTED STRUGGLING TO DRIVE EVEN AT A SNAILS PACE. THE TIMING CHAIN WAS THE ISSUE AND WAS REPLACED FOR APPROXIMATELY $2500. APPROXIMATELY 10 MONTHS LATER, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN, SAME ISSUE. ONCE AGAIN, IT WAS REPLACED (THIS TIME UNDER WARRANTY). *TT
