Consumer Description

ENGINE HAS A VERY BAD KNOCKING SOUND AS DESCRIBED IN RECALLED CARS THAT CATCH FIRE WITH THE SAME ENGINE. I CAN'T DRIVE IT IN THIS CONDITION AND THE MECHANIC SAYS REPAIR IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND MIGHT NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THERE IS A CONCERN THAT THERE ARE NO GOOD ENGINE PARTS FROM WHICH TO EVER FIX IT. THE SOUND JUST KEEPS GETTING WORSE.
