Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: After numerous oil changes, engine check light suddenly started flashing while on expressway and car lurched, then shut down completely. at dealership i was informed that engine threw a rod through the oil pan. i'm convinced this is related to the numerous complaints of the head gasket in the engine, since they all seem to have oil leaks in common.*ak
