Due to it happening to me and from what I have seen researching now my cars engine was blown due to the lack of oil and this particular engine is prone to have an excessive consumption of oil. I was driving the car and started hearing a knocking sound I parked the car. Took the plastic stuff off the top and found no oil in my engine after having a oil change not to long ago. So I had to get my car towed and I still owe on the car.
