Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON I20 IN GEORGIA. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND BEFORE I COULD GET OFF INTERSTATE CAR STARTED MAKING HORRIBLE NOISE. GOT OFF AND TURNED OFF ENGINE. WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART IT, IT WOULD JUST MAKE A GRINDING NOISE. SOMEONE CHECKED THE OIL FOR ME AND IT WAS BONE DRY. COMPUTER STATED 61% OIL LIFE LEFT AND NEVER GAVE ME A "OIL CHANGE" NOTICE. NOW THE ENGINE IS SHOT AND NEEDS REPLACING. I WAS GOING 70 MPH AT THE TIME AND CAR WENT DOWN TO ABOUT 30 MPH WITHIN SECONDS. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT! *TR
