1 Gasoline Fuel System problem of the 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport

Failure Date: 05/23/2010

I have a 01' Mitsubishi Montero Sport xls 3. 0l as of the last week in March I had a problem with my a/c and call auto repair shop to make a appointment. To my surprise the Mitsubishi/Saturn shop, the place that I had taken it to 6mths to a year be4, my oxygen sensor to be replaced and some other things, was gone out of business. So I call where I purchased the vehicle from, and was told that I could goto a licensed mechanic shop to get my a/c fixed, oxygen sensor had default again, but it still had warranty on it with the previously shop so the recent shop could not replace it and I also still had warranty coverage with the credit union that I pay monthly payments to. So I called the warranty group, and the warranty group paid for a/c to be fixed and I only had to pay 100 deductible. I received my SUV back about a week later, then I noticed a knocking within the motor so I went back to the repair shop, and was told that I needed a oil change, but I just recently had a tune-up and oil change. So I knew that I didn't need a oil change. The shop could not determine what caused the knocking noise, but on 5- 23-10 my SUV had malfunction this time my crankshaft,pulley,rods had separated and the only thing that was holding my engine together was the main bolt. So I got it towed back to the repair shop and I had to get my engine replaced. The warranty group paid for the pre-used engine, and I received my SUV back on 6-11-10. I did not drive my truck no more then to my home and parked it in my yard, but on that Tuesday June 15, 10 I went into a furniture store for about 20 mins. And left my a/c on, came back and only the fan was blowing, so I cut-off my SUV and waited for 5mins. Cut my SUV back on and drove back home with no problems. I had a appt on wed. 06-16-10, my SUV oil engine light came on this time I checked the oil and no oil in the motor put 2qts begin home speed drop75-45radiator bursted needengine.
