| Description of the problem | First at 25000 miles engine cooling fan went out and rattled so loud and overheated had to be towed. Took dealership a week just to get the parts. Now at 34000 miles engine died and vehicle stopped on highway on ramp almost causing a severe accident. No engine lights came on. I drove it and would not drive over 10 mph while making a horrible noise than engine dies in middle of the road almost another accident. Finally got restarted and quit again now every light on dash came on. Popped the hood and absolutely no oil in engine! Was just at dealership the week before and they did their multipoint inspection and marked oil as full? So in a week it lost 5 quarts of oil? Was towed again and sat at dealership for two weeks as they could not figure out engine knocking sound! Than they call and said everything checked out fine!??. Drove home smelling burnt oil as always since new and checked dipstick, they overfilled it by at least a quart! Unbelievable. Engine runs horrible and in 100 miles has already dropped a quart on dipstick. Blowing oil out exhaust pipe. Can |
