Description of the problem | Purchased car 5/2000 with 10,000 miles. Oil leak on garage floor, took to mechanic who said car had blown head gasket & these cars are notorious for this problem. Dealer contacted, who refused to repair under warranty even though it is only 1 month past the 3 yr date & well under the 36,000 miles. Think mfg. Should be held accountable for quality issue. Found several reports of same problem on your website. Need help. Single parent & no money to repair at my expense. Mr **** dims ii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/2002 cut-over artemis****740626 |
