Important question!!!!!



My 06 Camry was recently involved in a pretty decent front-end collision. It took our Toyota dealer approximately four months to get us our car back. First, there was a vibration, and a rattling noise, which turned out to be two lose bolts on my front suspension. Second, I just went to get my oil changed for the first time, and the guy tells me that I have an oil leak, maybe by the front seal. This leak was located to the passenger side of the oil pan, and upon further inspection, I was horrified to notice that right in that same area there is a motor mount, where a bolt goes into the engine block. Well, that bolt, and the hole that it is screwed into on the block are now completely broken from the block. Is this dangerous? I will be taking this car right back to the shop first thing in the morning, but I'm wondering what might happen on the way.



Thanks for a speedy reply!



That dealer owes you an engine. They should have caught thew broken block when they did the repair. It was surely caused by the collision. Scott
