Consumer Description

SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING WHEN DROPPED KIDS OFF AT SCHOOL, ABOUT 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING, IT STARTED HESITATING AT THE STOP LIGHT. 1 MILE LATER AND STILL DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 40 MPH, IT STARTED MAKING A LOUD RATTLE NOISE AND ALL THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON. LUCKILY, IT WAS 2 BLOCKS FROM HOME SO PULLED IN THE DRIVE AND NOTICED OIL ALL OVER. CHECKED THE OIL DIPSTICK AND HAD A HISSING SOUND WITH NO OIL READING ON THE STICK. EVERYTIME YOU START IT NOW, IT LEAKS OIL. TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE SAID ITS A CLOGGED PVC WHICH BLEW THE REAR SEAL. MY CAR HAS 89,950 MILES ON IT
