As we were exiting the engine started stuttering. We were able to get it to a gas station. It was towed to a mechanic where they found that there were multiple cylinder misfires. They also found a hole in the cylinder head/valve cover. With the vehicle slowing down on its own it could've caused a wreck. The stuttering on the offramp put my family at risk of being hit while trying to turn onto the street for the gas station. …”

The vehicle has less than 7,000 miles on it when it failed. It left a group stranded and had to be pushed off the road. The problem was confirmed at a dealership with a quoted price of $26,000 to replace the entire long block. …”
