Consumer Description

THE CAR WAS RUNNING FINE. I PULLED AWAY FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND TRIED TO GET UP TO THE SPEED LIMIT OF 45 MILES PER HOUR. AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MILES AN HOUR THE ENGINE JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I MANAGED TO GET IT TO THE SIDE AND CALLED THE WRECKER. MECHANIC SAID TIMING CHAIN BROKE AND I NEED A NEW ENGINE. *TR
