Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I had crankshaft and bearings replaced in september due to failure, which i have seen many other people have similar problem. i was cruising at 55-60 mph on highway in 5th gear when i heard a loud pop, and the engine began to rattle, and then suddenly died. i had vehicle towed to dealership, and had to call dealership to ask about vehicle, i was told it was because i drove the vehicle too hard and that i would have to pay for the repairs. *jb
