Consumer Description

While driving home my engine light came on for 5 minutes and went off and my car started to stall in the middle of traffic and produced a loud and hard knocking noise. When coming to a stop sign and trying to accelerate the car didn’t want to accelerate at first and when it did the knocking got louder and the car started to shake. Upon getting it diagnosed, results are the rod bearings in cylinder 3 AND 4 . Car is also losing oil somewhere somehow.
