Consumer Description

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AND VEH IMMEDIATELY LOST POWER. COULD NOT DRIVE OVER 30MPH, AND ENGINE BEGAN SMOKING. DEALER STATED FUEL INJECTOR WAS "DUMPING GAS". (GUESS THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THE BAD GAS MILEAGE). FUEL INJECTOR AND CATALYTIC CONVERTER CHANGED. 5 MONTHS LATER CHECK ENGINE CAME ON AGAIN AT 44,000MI. DEALER STATES COMPRESSION PROBLEM WITH FUEL INJECTOR. THE FUEL INJECTOR WAS REPLACED AGAIN, BUT NOW THE DEALER IS SAYING THERE IS ALSO A PROBLEM WITH CAM SHAFT. MY VEH IS STILL IN THE SHOP AS OF TODAY, SO I AM STILL NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN RESOLVED. *JS
