The engine shut down at only 14,000 miles. There was no warning it just shut down. The dealership that replaced the engine told me there was a safety notice sent to dealerships but they did not have to tell consumers. Fod knows specific engines that could be affected because they were manufactered at specific plants but have not contacted anyone. I was very lucky that day and did not take the highway but a side road instead. I had my 2 toddlers in the car with me and could have caused a major deadly accident.
