The dealer said that the manufactur ran out of those bolts during assembly, and thinking they were not nessisary, sold my car as well as others without those bolts. Replaced the bolts for the heat shield or the exhaust manifold. After more than six trips back to the dealership they put a new ac compressor on that quieted the noise for a few days, but the noise is back. I have since quit driving this car until I figure out what to do. The incident date is not accurate because I don't have any of the repair orders infront of me.
While traveling about 50mph on the highway and without prior warning vehicle shut down , and it didn't restart. *Ak
