Consumer Description

I just recently purchased about a month and a half ago. I was on my way to work and it was a thudded knocking noise before my car slowed down and shut off on the highway. I had to get it towed to a nearby restaurant I had a mobile mechanic come by he put it on a scanner code p0014 came up with the engine light on.. When he cut the car on and heard the noise he said my engine has failed.. I haven’t had any prior issues with my car before this date.. He mentioned it’s recalls on the engine I have my VIN doesn’t show it’s a recall but it’s the same issues described happened
