| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have taken my 1998 honda accord lx to the dealership to have my oil changed. (my check engine light was on) i was told by the dealer that my engine was leaking oil, oil had leaked through out the cars entire system so they flushed out as much oil as they could. i was skeptical so i went to get a 2nd and third opinion and it was the same consensus- i needed a new engine. my vehicle has 134,000 miles. for a used engine it will cost about 3,000 for a new engine 5,000.00 . i was told to that i either had to replace the engine or purchase a new car. since the system was drained, the car has leaked oil again this time the oil was all over the drive way and it is almost april. *jb |
