Consumer Description

MY WIFE HAD PARKED THE CAR AFTER DRIVING IT 5 MILES, IT WOULD NOT RESTART WE SENT IT TO OUR MECHANIC AND HE ALSO COULD GET IT TO START AFTER THEY CHECKED IT ON THE COMPUTER THEY TORE DOWN THE ENGINE TO FIND THE NUMBER 4 CYLINDER CRUMBLED SENDING METAL PARTS ALL THROUGH THE ENGINE. MY WIFE USED THE CAR FOR HER JOB CLEANING CONDO'S, SHE OWNS THE BUSINESS SO SHE DOES A LOT OF SHORT RUNS TO VARIOUS LOCATIONS, NOT HIGH SPEED OR EVEN HIGHWAYS. HE SENT US THE PICTURE, WE HAVE BEEN USING TUFFY'S FOR A WHILE AS OUR MAIN REPAIR SHOP FOR OUR OTHER VEHICLES AS WELL. YOU COULD SEE THE RIM OF PISTON 4 WAS 3/4 GONE.
