Consumer Description

I HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO OUR LOCAL GARAGE BECAUSE OF THE WATER PUMP WENT. FROM WHAT THE GARAGE MECHANIC TOLD ME WAS THAT IT WAS LEAKING FOR A WHILE WITH OUT BEING NOTICED. IN TURN, BECAUSE OF THE LEAK IT RUINED THE TIMING BELT WHICH ALSO HAD TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH THE WATER PUMP. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT IS HIGHLY UNUSUAL FOR A WATER PUMP TO GO ON A 4 YEAR OLD CAR WITH NOT THAT MUCH MILEAGE. THIS VISIT TO THE GARAGE COST ME $500.47 (PARTS & LABOR). *AK
