Description of the problem | After getting to the 100,000 mile marker. My car begin to have a rough idle from the engine bay that could also be felt from within the car. I then took my car to the dealership in which they said it was misfiring and needed new spark plugs and coils. After paying for that i pick my car up from the dealership only to find out the engine light came back on once getting home. A couple weeks after that my engine started misfiring yet again we're even a worse engine rock. Finally got it into the dealership and they told me it's a bad tensioner chain and also that my engine has been affected by that. I would think they would have known the issue was that instead of the spark plugs and coil packs. Now my engine is a goner and i'm left with a car payment with no vehicle due to the faulty chain tensioner. I believe that if they would have fixed the problem when i took it in then they could have seen my engine from blowing. All they did was did a patch up with spark plugs and coils |
