Consumer Description

WE PURCHASED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND AFTER THREE MONTHS OF OWNING IT WE NOW NEED A NEW ENGINE. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A FUNNY NOISE AND SMOKING. HE HAD TO STOP ON THE HIGHWAY IN A TURNING LANE AT NIGHT. I AM SO UPSET THAT WE NOW HAVE A NONWORKING VEHICLE THAT WE STILL OWE MONEY ON. I HAVE BEEN READING UP ON THIS AND APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY 2007 MODELS WITH ENGINE FAILURE. I'M NOT A DETECTIVE BUT SOMETHING IS CRIMINAL ABOUT THIS. WE WORK HARD TO PAY FOR THESE VEHICLES....THEY ARNT A TOY WE PLAY WITH....WE NEED THEM TO GET PLACES SAFELY. IF THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE....IT MUST BE A MANUFACTURER FLAW. THEY SHOULD HAVE TO MAKE IT RIGHT.
