ENGINE
Owner Narrative
I am known by Toyota experts and my local mechanics as someone who takes excellent care of my vehicle, but unfortunately I am completely blown away when I was driving my car and suddenly it stopped and couldnât start, after I tolled it to my mechanic, he told me the engine seized and it needs replacement. The cost is about $4000. I donât have that kind of money and it has been seating in my driveway. I donât understand how a very well maintained engine will just give out without any warning signs.
