asked by on February 26, 2018

I was driving it and all of a sudden it would feel like it started to pull wanting to shut off, then it started making rumbling sounds and it just shut off on me, oil leaked out, and hasn’t turned on sense. I just want to know what’s wrong with it so I could get it fixed?

My car has 200000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.

The first thing to do is to locate where the oil leaked out of the engine to see if the engine seized up and entire engine may need to be replaced.
