| 1999 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE | WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HER CAR TO WORK THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN THE ENGINE JUST SEIZED UP ON HER LEAVING HER IN THE MIDDLE OF A TWO LANE HIGHWAY. AFTER WE GOT THE CAR HOME I TRIED TO TURN THE ENGINE OVER BY HAND AND IT WOULDN'T ROTATE. I DID ALL THE MAINTENANCE ON THE VEHICLE SINCE NEW AND USED SYNTHETIC OIL THE ENTIRE LIFE OF THE ENGINE. JUST PURCHASED ANOTHER ENGINE AND I AM WORRIED THE SAME THING WILL HAPPEN AFTER READING ALL THE HORROR STORIES ON THE NET. *NM |
