Oil consumption issue causing engine to stall without warning while driving. Burning through 2 quarts every 1000 miles. Almost caused 2 accidents so far.
My van had a recall involving the cooling fan, it was repaired. At approximately 25,000 I had a check engine light, the dealer says it's the thermostat needing replaced ($588!!!"?? at under 26,000 miles??"!!!) the temp gauge always sits right at the halfway mark, this can't be right but they said that's to be expected.
Newer truck and engine just quit as I was driving along. Lose power steering and power brakes. Luckily on a back road and not going fast. Couldn't get it to restart for 45 minutes, I'm not even sure how I got it to restart but I did. Called dealer where I bought it and they said they couldn't even look at it for 3 weeks?..its a work truck, how I make a living...oy vey.. I have it a local shop now.
