Alternator failed. Yh
While driving at 60 to 65 MPH without prior warning the engine piston blew out, and the engine block cracked.
Dealer was contacted about header malfunction before warranty expiration and claimed there was no problem. Now the vehicle is well over the warranty and problem has gotten worse. Took the vehicle to get an estimate to get the exhaust headers replaced, they quoted me at over $800.00 to fix the problem.
I was going uphill and heard a clocking sound and speed was slowing down..shifted to 2nd gear and heard a big snapped...as I was going to the side curve, the engine seized on me (engine block). Dealer said the rod in the engine broke and some internal stuff. I just can't believe that a 6yrs old w/ a 109,000 miles car would just give up on me. I previously had toyotas that lasted a long time w/no engine problem. I even had my oil change prior to my trip so I can't say I didn't have any oil.
Engine cylinder head/engine head gasket failed.
Engine is not keeping oil pressure. The dealer has replaced three times.
Engine head gasket blew at 85k miles. Tt
Radiator developed pin holes . Please explain. Tt
