Consumer Description

THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON WHILE I WAS IDLING. I HAD IT LOOKED AT AND WAS TOLD THAT THE OIL SENDING UNIT/ OIL SENSOR SWITCH WAS LEAKING OIL. THE OIL LEAKS OUT FASTER THAN YOU CAN PUT IT IN. IT'S A 3 BOOK HOUR JOB TO REPLACE. THE PART COST IS BETWEEN $30-$60. THEY NEED TO TAKE THE INTAKE OFF TO GET TO THE BAD PART. I'M SURE IT WILL BE ABOUT A $500 FIX. I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. IF YOU GOOGLE SEARCH THIS VEHICLE YOU WILL FIND THAT MANY OTHER VANS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.
