What owners wrote
The vehicle was being driven at the time on a busy city street. We noticed some noises which was sounding like metal clanking. This became louder immediately in the span of 5mins and the temperature sensor went off on the dashboard. The vehicle was becoming unresponsive to brakes in the middle of commute traffic. Luckily we got the vehicle stopped on the side of the shoulder without any injuries to anyone.
Water pump caused antifreeze to mix with motor oil causing the engine to have to be replace on three occasions within 6 months
