On two separate occasions while driving one time on the hwy at 60 mph & another at 20 mph in a school zone heard a loud noise like a blown out tire & the fan blade hitting the fan guard.
- Utica, MS, USA
While driving at 25 mph, consumer hit a small bump (culvert under road) and it sounded like a large pot hole had been hit. Looking in the rear view mirror, the driver saw (and later retrieved) a bolt bouncing down the road. Engine sounded deeper initially, and then a louder knocking sound started. The driver stopped and noticed that the fan was hitting the shroud and called a wrecker. The bolts to the motor mount had broken and the engine had dropped several inches. The problem was fixed.16 days later the top weld on the driver's-side door hinge broke away, leaving only the bottom hinge holding the door in place.
