| Description of the problem | While traveling on route 78 west near bethlehem pa the oil light began to flicker. We pulled off the highway into a gm dealership. The mechanic said the oil was leaking out the oil filter and there was no oil on the dipstick. Now the engine is making a grinding sound when it is starting and other sounds. I'm afraid that we will have to be replaced the engine or the car. We have 3 years left on the car loan. The oil and filter were replaced 32,012 at sears. I have saved the failed oil filter. |
