The car started having problems one morning. A call to the local repair shop told us this model has head gasket problems. While trying to drive it to the shop, the engine seized and vehicle had to be towed. We have been informed we must replace the engine.

If we had known of this defect we would have had it checked out long ago. A search on the internet told us this was a very common complaint. We were the second owners of this vehicle, but were never informed of a problem.
