| Description of the problem | I have had the oil changed the first time at 3000 miles and they noticed the oil was leaking from the front of the engine. I call the dealer and made an appointment to have it fixed the dealer did change the oil pan gasket, then i drove it until the next oil change, same thing oil leak at front of the engine, so i called the dealer made an appointment, they changed the valve cover gasket. I have now 82500 miles on the car and just came from having car check at my local mechanic and still oil leak in front of the engine. Looks like the warranty will run out with on repair to my vehicle!!! |
