I was driving on the freeway and my car started to slow down. i pulled off the freeway and my engine konked out/died. feeling unsafe to drive vehicle i had to have it towed to nearest mechanic. upon his visual inspection and by starting it up he heard a loud knocking. then he informed me that it "pooped a rod bearing" and that i need a new motor. he mentioned a used motor goes for $5000. i was shocked to hear that i needed a new motor at 60,181 miles. therefore i had it towed to toyota delearship in tustin california. after running a diagnostic and draining oil from vehicle..the mechanic said there was metal pieces in the oil and that the motor was definitely oil starved. he quoted a new engine installation would be $12,000. i currently owe $16,000 on my 2014 scion frs. i couldn't afford it so i contacted toyota to see if it was under warranty. this is obviously a manufacturer defect being that this doesn't normally happen at 60,000 miles under normal drving conditions and maintenance. toyota didn't honor my warranty because it was just over 181 miles.
