Consumer Description

MY CAR STARTED MAKING A LOUD TICKING NOISE IN THE ENGINE, I TOOK IT IN AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S NORMAL BUT WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IT WAS NOT MAKING THAT NOISE AT ALL. IT NO LONGER FILLS TO 410 MILES WHEN I PUT GAS AND THE GAS DOES NOT LAST AS LONG AS IT USED TO. WHEN PARKED AND THE CAR IS ON IT WILL START SHAKING
