Consumer Description
AT JUST OVER 100,000 MILES I HAD TO CHANGE THE TIMING CHAINS COST ME 3500 DOLLARS.AND 3 WEEKS LATER THE MOTOR SEIZED UP . I THINK THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS I WAS TOLD IT IS A BAD DESIGN ON THESE ENGINES. PAY FOR A CAR THAT JUST SITS THERE AS I CANT AFFORD ANOTHER ENGINE FOR IT
