Description of the problem | I had just started driving on the freeway when my dash started dinging and my temp went from cold to extremely hot so i pulled over. There was plenty of oil and water in it(i double checked). I started it up again and it went cold again,as i started driving to the nearest exit off the freeway a few noments later to have it looked at,it all of the sudden it woundnt let me give it gas. It slowed way down in the middle of the freeway. I got it off the freeway eventually it went back to normal then quickly started to make an awful sound. I stopped the car again for the fourth time and opened the hood and hot smoke vame out. After i let it cool for 2 hours on the side of the road it woundnt start. It wanted to but no fuel was getting to where it was suppose too. I had it looked at and no blown rod. They said ot looked like something to do with the fuel something or other. I had it tolled to my home 335 miles away where it sits broke and it cost me 300. 00 thu aaa. Two days later on 8/17/18 i get a recall notice on the brake booster and alternator diode thermal fatigue. The problem i have is my car almost caused a huge multi car collision on i 30 in tx. And it stranded me in a bad neighborhood.. |
