| Description of the problem | I was driving on route 81 to harrisburg and heard a loud noise and my engine just shut off. I had to coast over to the side of the road to a safe place. I had to get my car towed and my mechanic inspected the vehicle and advised that the connecting rod inside the engine broke and put a hole in the engine and the oil tank. I had to get the car towed and while it was on the tow truck i saw the oil just pouring out of the bottom of the vehicle. The technician told me that this is very odd for this to break. He said it is most likely a manufacturers defect because this does not just happen. Oil tank was full with oil and the car has been well taken car of. Any other incidents like this one? |
