Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I got my intrepid new as a company car, and subsequently bought it when the division had layoffs (less than 10k miles, i was the original owner). it has been a dependable car, until it 'stalled out' last week. turns out there's water in the oil, so the suspicion is a blown head gasket. the temperature gauge was 'normal' (not overheated) and there was a trail of oil that had come out the oil filler tube (dip stick 'popped' due to pressure). the car is driven about 5 miles each way to work and back each day, and for occasional errands in the evenings/weekend. i took it to a local mechanic to get a further diagnosis and estimate for repair. the vehicle was in good condition (38k miles), serviced regularly, and up until now, considered reliable. *jb |
