| Description of the problem | Was experiencing and intermittent check oil light so i called to make an appointment to have it checked out. The day before the service appointment and driving on the garden state parkway, my engine slowed way down and lost almost all power. The engine started making a very loud noise and would only go about 30 mph. The next day the auto repair shop calls and informs me that i need a new engine. I went with a jasper rebuilt engine which still cost me $6,100 installed. |
