My mechanic says this happened in the factory! I've been driving the car for 5 years. How can this be?

problem #1

2007Sep 28

(reported on)

Highlander 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 73,000 miles

Well maintained Highlander suddenly overheated and found to have two engine bolts loose due to threads in the block failing. Only solution from my very reliable mechanic after checking thoroughly is engine replacement.
