Consumer Description

PRIOR TO A LONG TRIP WE HAD THE OIL CHANGED AND FLUIDS TOPPED OFF WHEN WE ARRIVED TO OUR DESTINATION THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO OIL IN THE CAR, NO OIL LEAKS JUST A COMPLETE BLOW OUT WHILE DRIVING WE NEVER SAW THE OIL LEAVING THE CAR, THIS HAS HAPPENED ON ALL OUR TRIPS AND WE ALWAYS MAKE SURE THERE IS OIL IN THE CAR , UPON ARRIVING TO A DESTINATION THERE WILL BE NO OIL LEFT. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THE OIL BLOWING OUT OF THE CAR
