Consumer Description

ON A RETURN TRIP FROM CA. MY TOYOTA PREVIA JUST STOPPED RUNNING. IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN SO HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO LAS VEGAS NV. ABOUT 50 MILES. IN TAKING THE VAN TO MY MECHANIC HE SAID THAT IT WAS TOTALLY OUT OF WATER AND ALMOST OUT OF OIL .THE FIRST PISTON HAS NO COMPRESION THE REST ARE BELOW 100 PUONDS. THE VAN GAVE NO WARNING THAT IT WAS OUT OF WATER OR EVEN LOW ON OIL, ALSO THIS VAN HAS EXTRA OIL UP UNDER THE HOOD, AND IT HAS A PUMP THAT SHOULD HAVE PUMPED OIL INTO THE ENGINE, IT DID NOT IT FAILED. ALSO THE WRANING GAUGE DID NOT INDICATE THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME RICH IN VEGAS. *AK
