Consumer Description

There is metal shards in the oil from the engine. The oil burns up within a week or so. The guy at the oil change place said it was common in these make and model cars and I need a new engine. It can stall or catch fire which can pose a risk to me and/or other cars on the road. I drive around with a [XXX] son it's my daily car and the engine is not good. We are constantly having to put oil in it. Other vehicles from this company have been recalled for the same issue. Please have it inspected and fixed.
