Consumer Description

VEHICLE STARTED TO RUN VERY ROUGH JUST AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY, WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, THE BRAKES BECAME SLUGGISH. CAR WAS PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT JUST BEFORE IT COMPLETELY DIED. ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. MECHANIC INSPECTION FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER AND BRAKES. THE ENGINE WAS DAMAGED AS WELL AS THE RADIATOR, WHICH SPLIT FROM OVERHEATING. NOISE WAS FOUND COMING FROM THE TIMING CHAINS AS WELL AS THE ROCKER ARMS. AT LEAST TWO CYLINDERS HAD LOW COMPRESSION. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE AND RADIATOR WERE DAMAGE TO THE POINT OF NEEDING REPLACEMENT. *TR
