WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE INTERSTATE WITHIN NORMAL SPEED LIMIT. ALL OF A SUDDEN HIT SOMETHING RAN OVER SOMETHING AND THE CAR BEGIN TO LOSE OIL AND SHUT OFF. WHEN TOWED TO REPAIR SHOP WAS TOLD THE ENGINE HAD A DEFECT IN IT BC IT THREW A ROD AND RUINED THE ENGINE. THE REPAIR SHOP CONFIRMED I WAS NOT AT ANY FAULT BC THERE WAS PLENTY OF OIL AND ALL NEEDED MAINTENANCE WAS UPDATE. THE REPAIR SHOP CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY THE ENGINE WOULD THROW A ROD AND DEEMED IT A DEFECT IN THE ENGINE. THE CAR WAS BOUGHT WITH 30K MILES AND NOW ITS 130K. NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS UNTIL THIS AND STATEFARM INSURANCE SAYS IT DOES NOT COVER THIS SITUATION. WILL BE SEEKING IF THE MANUFACTURER WILL REPLACE IT, BC IT HAPPENED NOT AT ANY FAULT OF MINE. IF ANYONE ELSE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PLEASE MAKE IT KNOWN FOR OTHER PPL AND STATE HOW YOU SOLVED IT. THKS
