Consumer Description
THE VEHICLE STARTED MAKING A NOISE IN THE ENGINE, TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT. A WEEK LATER THE CAR STARTED TO DRIVE BADLY AND THE ENGINE SOUNDED WORSE. AFTER WORK I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULDN'T START. THE NUMBERS ON THE SENSOR READER STATED IT WAS THE TIMING CHAIN. WE GOT IT SERVED BY A MECHANIC AND THE TIMING CHAIN WHEN IT SLIPPED DAMAGED THE ENGINE. NOW WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE THE TRAVERS FOR OVER A YEAR AND WE ARE STILL PAYING FOR IT BECAUSE WE NOW NEED TO PUT A NEW ENGINE IN IT. THE DEALERSHIP AND THE MANUFACTURE WERE OF NO HELP TO US. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO MAKE MENTION, WE DID HAVE OUR OIL CHANGED REGULARLY.
