I suspected it but its confirmation hurts. $73,000 and more through the window and I have barely started paying for it. I am strong otherwise I would go crazy! The engine is damaged and needs replacement. Rebuilding is not an option because the cylinder head also has cracked and there are more issues.
These engines fail following a history of oil consumption. The cylinders lose compression and the car loses power and consumes excessive amounts of oil. There are reports of broken pistons, broken valves and cracked cylinder heads at some point.
It is not uncommon for these engines to fail: [ Ссылка ]
I advise anyone in the used car market not to purchase these vehicles. More info at this forum thread I created to inform people: [ Ссылка ]
