1 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 07/08/2025

The motor mounts have been replaced twice in the last six years and per the dealer, this is normal which I find very hard to believe on a 2017 Mini coop of convertible, with 90,000.

2 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 03/12/2025

My 2017 Mini coupe has 70,000 miles on it. I’ve had it 11 months… I was in a drive-through and it started making a hard knock sound no engine light or any other lights came on the vehicle. I had it towed to a shop where they informed me my engine was blown and it would cost $16,000 to replace the engine. My oil level was perfect. I reached out to carvana. I missed my warranty by five days and they will not do anything about it. There is no reason why a car with 70,000 miles on it. The engine should be blown.
