Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Have cold engine knock since vehicle was new. dealer says knock is normal for that engine. knock is consistently getting worse as engine wears and getting close to the three year expiration of warranty. i do not feel the manufacturer will acknowledge the engine problem and make appropriate repairs &/or engine replacement. they seem to be attempting to allow the warranty period to expire causing unecessary expenses to be paid by the owner. *ak
